AI CONVICTION THESIS

Amadeus runs the reservation and distribution systems that most of the world's airlines, travel agencies and increasingly hotels depend on, earning a fee per booking with very high switching costs and strong free cash flow. It has kept its guidance, launched a new buyback after a quarterly profit of 356.9 million euros, and Deutsche Bank has upgraded the stock to Buy. It funds itself internally with modest debt, which suits a world of higher-for-longer rates, and the valuation now sits near the middle of its range despite a moat few software businesses match.

SwingsCalm

Calmer than 74% of stocks we rank over the past year (29% a year).

How this is worked out

What it measures: day-to-day price moves over the past year, as a yearly figure, ranked against every stock we cover. Very calm under 20% a year, Calm 20 to 30%, Average 30 to 40%, Bumpy 40 to 55%, Very bumpy above that.

What we found: across about 13,500 stocks in 34 markets (2002 to 2025), past swings were a good guide to the next year's, and bumpier stocks fell further. How much further changed too much between eras to put a number on it.

Calm is not safe: a calm stock can still slide steadily.

Rules fixed before any data was fetched. Describes the chart, not a recommendation.
