But Warren Buffett does. He has gone on record several times saying there is no publicly traded airline he would invest in.

I was just starting your list for you.
Your disliking of airlines I as much of an MT standard as MVIS.

Well Peter Lynch is also pretty good and he had this to say about cyclicals
I'm not looking for some outrageous growth or anything, but Southwest has good prospects with new opening routes (via Airtran), a better "image" than American, United, KLM, etc, and although the industry as a whole gets a bad rep (and for good reason), I think there is a profit to be found here and it's a good way to balance out a portfolio that has more "unstable" stocks like bio-medical, tech, etc
quote:
Cyclicals: Companies in which sales and profits tend to rise and fall in somewhat predictable patterns based on the economic cycle; examples include companies in the auto industry, airlines and steel. Lynch warns that these firms can be mistaken for stalwarts by inexperienced investors, but share prices of cyclicals can drop dramatically during hard times. Thus, timing is crucial when investing in these firms, and Lynch says that investors must learn to detect the early signs that business is starting to turn down.

You'd be an idiot not to, I don't think anyone is arguing otherwise.
ETA: They also have separate ideologies in growth vs value...
