Boeing was founded in 1916 by William E. Boeing. Originally, the company was based in Seattle, but it moved to Chicago in 2001. Aero Products Company was the first company’s name.
Boeing is a huge company. Although it seems very stable, its stock price may experience significant ups and downs. For instance, the Covid-19 pandemic led to dramatic losses. The company lost $12 B in 2020 only. Moreover, the company has been going through a huge regulation case. In 2021, U.S. regulators halted deliveries due to factory defects, which resulted in losses of billions of dollars.
Due to the pandemic and regulation cases, the company’s revenue has been growing at a slower pace than the average in the US Aerospace & Defense industry and the overall US market. It means that traders and investors should be careful when dealing with Boeing’s stocks.
The company's equities are listed on NYSE under the #BA ticker. Institutional investors hold over 50% of shares. It’s worth mentioning that the company doesn’t pay dividends. So, it may be more beneficial to trade its stocks.
When trading a stock CFD, you should predict the stock’s price direction correctly. However, it doesn’t mean that you can succeed only if the price rises.
Before investing or opening a trade, you should check a number of factors. First of all, you should be sure that the corporation is strong enough. So, check the company’s earnings reports.
Second, always check whether the company is stable when you deal with its stocks. If it goes through a legal case, it’s more likely the stock price will fall. Also, you should know what is happening in the Aerospace & Defense industry. You can also consider the stocks of Boeing’s rivals to define how strong the industry is. Honeywell International, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, TransDigm Group, HEICO, Textron, Northrop Grumman, Huntington Ingalls Industries, Teledyne Technologies, and Curtiss-Wright are Boeing's main competitors.
