Boeing's most recent trend suggests a bearish bias. One trading opportunity on Boeing is a Bear Call Spread using a strike $133.00 short call and a strike $138.00 long call offers a potential 17.65% return on risk over the next 9 calendar days.

Boeing Plans To Mass Produce Fighter-Like Drones Before 2025- Report
Tue, 05 May 2020 06:06:28 +0000
Boeing (BA) anticipates that its unmanned, fighter-like jet- the Loyal Wingman- will reach mass production by 2025, Reuters reports. The company is currently trialing one of three prototypes developed in Australia, aided by $26 million funding from the Australian government. “We are expecting middle of the decade, maybe a bit earlier that this will be in production,” Shane Arnott, the programme director of Boeing’s Airpower Teaming System stated.According to Arnott, “16 of the Loyal Wingman drones could be teamed with a manned aircraft for missions and it [is] on track for its first flight by the end of the year” Reuters reports. The drone can be used to both carry weapons and protect other aircrafts and fighter jets. Cowen & Co’s Cai Rumohr has just reiterated his Hold rating on Boeing, with a $150 price target (14% upside potential) following BA’s ‘welcome’ $25 billion debt offering.The debt issue “eliminates the need for government aid and provides flexibility to make it through to year-end 2022 in a tough environment” writes Rumohr, adding that Boeing “still faces multiple demand/ execution challenges but a liquidity crunch likely isn't one of them.”Overall, Boeing shows a cautious Moderate Buy consensus from the Street, with 6 recent buy ratings far outweighed by 13 hold ratings. With an average analyst price target of $183, analysts, on average, see 39% upside ptoential from current levels. Shares are trading down 60% year-to-date. (See Boeing’s stock analysis on TipRanks).
