Vetr Crowd Re-Accommodates United to Sell

The Vetr crowd on Wednesday downgraded their rating for United Continental Holdings Inc UAL from 4.5 stars (Strong Buy), issued 34 days ago, to 2 stars (Sell). However, Crowd sentiment at the time of the downgrade was edging positive with 55 percent of Vetr user ratings bullish.

The commercial airliner has had a tough couple of days following the release of a video that showed a man being physically dragged from a United plane after the company had overbooked the flight. Despite the pervasiveness of the video and the outcry it has generated, United's stock has remained resilient to the bad press ending the day the video was released less than a percent lower than its previous close prior to the video. By 2 p.m. ET Wednesday, the stock was still steady at the $70.60 level.
