Dahlman Rose downgraded Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) from Buy to Hold.

Analyst, Helane Becker, said, "Delta has been the leader in capacity reductions. We forecast Delta will reduce capacity 2.6% in 2012 and 1% in 2013. Although we viewed the capacity reductions as a positive in an environment of +$3.50 jet fuel, we believe Delta will need to add capacity at some point to continue to increase revenues and earnings."
