Recent analysis on BA:
“While investors may not be wrong to soften their optimistic view of Boeing in the short term, I think if you focus on what Boeing may or may not deliver in the second quarter or this year, you will end up missing the big picture of improving delivery numbers and fundamentals. Challenges remain across the timeline, but the trends and outlook are positive, and they outweigh the near-term pressures Boeing faces“, writes Dhierin BechaiBoss of “The Aerospace Forum“Investment Group on Seeking Alpha.
“Operationally, Boeing’s situation is absolutely improving. Although the economy as a whole may struggle later this year and next year, I think the long-term outlook for the company is positive. With no unforeseen events coming out of the carpentry, I think the toughest times for the business are now over. But that doesn’t mean the company is making an attractive investment right now. Yes, the backlog is constantly growing. I really expect this trend to continue. But the stocks look very expensive and I would say the market is priced in to these continued improvements that I believe will occur. I wouldn’t go so far as to go bearish on the company. After all, it’s a high-quality industry leader with a bright future ahead of it. But I think the stock is no better than a “hold” candidate right now.“, wrote Daniel JonesBoss of “Raw value information“Investment Group on Seeking Alpha.
“Boeing’s strong market position, strong order book and strategic partnerships make it an invaluable investment opportunity. The company’s recent contract with the US Navy and its 20-year delivery forecast underscore its promising prospects. As the global aviation market recovers, Boeing is well positioned to capitalize on this rebound“, writes SA contributor Que Capital in a Analysis of June 22.
