Context and risks
FTAI's business depends on air travel demand and fleet maintenance, which are sensitive to the economic cycle and fuel prices. The rise in crude oil may pressure the margins of airlines, its end customers, and reduce MRO demand in the short term. Additionally, the fall in tech stocks and risk aversion do not directly affect it.

Verdict: Hold, with caution. The company has a high-quality business, but the balance sheet is highly leveraged and cash flow is weak; wait for improved cash generation or debt reduction before increasing the position.
Main risk: The main risk is the extremely high financial leverage (Debt/Equity 865%) combined with negative free cash flow conversion, which could lead to solvency issues if the business weakens or interest rates continue to rise.
