Why Are Shares of JetBlue Rising Today?
Mar 23, 2026 8:14 AM

Shares of JetBlue Airways Corporation ( JBLU ) are trading higher Monday after President Donald Trump suspended U.S. strikes on Iran’s power and energy infrastructure for five days.

JetBlue Airways ( JBLU ) stock is charging ahead with explosive momentum. What’s behind JBLU gains?

Oil Prices Remain Sensitive To Unrest In Middle East

The price of oil and gas has been fluctuating heavily due to American military activity in the Middle East, prompting executives like United Air Lines‘ CEO Scott Kirby to warn customers about rising ticket prices and reduction in flight capacity.

JetBlue ( JBLU ) is riding a wave of momentum alongside several airline stocks Monday morning amid a decline in oil prices. Airlines are extremely dependent on the global supply chain for oil, and are reacting positively to Trump’s temporary pause on energy-focused strikes.

JBLU Stock Analysis

JetBlue ( JBLU ) is trading 11.7% below its 20-day SMA and 13.5% below its 100-day SMA, showing the stock is still below key trend gauges even as the market rallies. Shares are down 26.19% over the past 12 months and are currently positioned closer to their 52-week low ($3.34) than their 52-week high ($6.50).

The golden cross in January (January 16, 2026) signaled improving longer-term trend structure at the time, but price has since slipped back under the major moving averages, which is why bulls still need follow-through to regain control.

RSI is at 30.81, sitting just above oversold territory and suggesting selling pressure has eased but hasn't flipped into strong upside momentum yet. MACD is at -0.3843 and remains below its signal line at -0.3151, keeping bearish momentum in place despite today's bounce.

The combination of RSI in the 30–50 range with bearish MACD suggests mixed momentum.

Key Resistance: $5.00

Key Support: $3.50

JBLU Shares Take Off Monday
