Pilots weigh concessions as voting nears at American
Fort Worth pilots ask questions on a tentative plan to save AMR from bankruptcy by cutting about 660 million annually. The Allied Pilots Association hears about 23 percent pay cuts and 2,500 layoffs over six years, while NAMI and other unions also face reductions and bonuses amid a looming filing. The company warns bankruptcy is likely if deals fail, with AMR stock near three eighty.

Continental debt rating dropped amid weaker air travel
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Continental Airlines again amid declines in passenger demand and revenues. The outlook remains negative with potential further downgrades if cash flow and liquidity do not improve in the next two quarters. Continental plans to cut $500 million in expenses and up to 1,200 jobs as the industry faces a weak season and ongoing losses.

Trade deficit narrows before war amid prewar jitters
The February trade deficit shrank to 40.3 billion dollars, down 2.2 percent from January as demand for foreign goods fell. Exports edged up while imports slipped, and fuel prices hit a 20 year high. Jobless claims dropped though the labor market remained sluggish. Analysts see export growth resuming later year.
