Jan 26 (Reuters) - U.S. airlines expect strong travel demand that drove record fourth-quarter revenues to continue into 2023, but economic uncertainty and burgeoning labor and operations costs could cloud their rosy outlooks. On Thursday, American Airlines (AAL.O), JetBlue Airways Corp (JBLU.O) and Alaska Air Group (ALK.N) forecast better-than-expected full-year earnings. JetBlue forecast expenses excluding fuel to rise 1.5% to 4.5% in 2023. China's recent reopening may also boost international travel, but demand remains uncertain and U.S. airlines face challenges toward cashing in. American Airlines forecast an adjusted profit of $2.50 to $3.50 per share for 2023, handily beating analyst expectations of $1.77, according to Refinitiv data.

Woods trimmed Cowen's price target on Salesforce to $160 from $175 a share, reflecting just 9% upside from Thursday's close. "After a long cycle of high growth through both organic & inorganic efforts, Salesforce has reached greater market penetration and is entering a more mature growth phase," Wood wrote.

In a note, Cowen analysts said Adidas has "a path forward" in selling popular shoes without Yeezy. Some sneakerheads will give Adidas' new offerings a chance, while others plan to skip the releases. "Our checks suggest there is demand for Yeezy-like designs among the sneaker community, despite clear reputational risk, and we expect management to launch new styles without Yeezy branding," Cowen analysts said. Cowen analysts estimated Adidas also has several million units of Yeezy inventory in warehouses. The company has lost over $1 billion in annual profit in the region since 2019, Cowen analysts said.
