Which Latin American airline stocks rose the most on Monday, and by how much?

Brazil's Azul (AZUL3.SA) advanced nearly 6%, making it the top-performing airline stock mentioned; Volaris (VOLARA.MX) rose 5%, LATAM Airlines (LTM.SN) gained 4%, Aeromexico (AERO.MX) climbed 3%, and Copa Holdings (CPA.N) rose around 2.5%.

Why did Latin American airline shares rise on Monday, and what was J.P. Morgan's key assessment of the impact?

Shares rose because oil prices fell following news of a U.S.-Iran peace agreement, easing concerns over fuel costs; J.P. Morgan stated the fuel price drop could support airlines in the near term but expects oil prices to remain relatively elevated over the medium term, and noted that a 10% move in jet fuel prices translates into roughly an 8% change in airlines’ EBITDAR on average.
