The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA)

They are not performing as well as they could be atm, but they will grow again over the next several years. They have signed contracts to sustain the USAF C-17 Globemaster III fleet, as well as still building new ones. I see them making a rebound and heading north within a year or so.

Boeing is a rock steady company

They are going to start getting paid for their new air crafts that are due in 2010

Boeing is still viewed as only an airplane builder the fact is they have many products (not just defense & airplanes) and many customers (not just airlines & the White House), you really need to look at and understand the BIG picture with any global company, as hard as it is to believe there is still money being spent around the globe there is. Times like this only slows the train down to give investors an opportunity to get on board before it picks up speed again, and I am confident this train will.

The Obama administration will make changes that will hurt Boeing. Specifically, they will probably cut the overall defense budget and seriously cut funds for the F-22 fighter jet (which Boeing makes with Lockheed Martin, Pratt & Whitney, and the US Air Force), and has stated publicly that he wants to investigate currently-standing Boeing contracts.

The market may not be fully recovered by the time the 787 comes out, but savvy airlines will pick it up for its efficiency. A diverse company that will be around for a long time, and who, in spite of occasional labour difficulties and delays, still manages to produce good numbers and quality product.

Airplane manufacturers flooded the market with new planes in 2007 and 2008. Airline mergers will require cutting fleet. Financial positions of Airlines in 2009 will not allow buying

As long as there are airlines operating around the world, they will need new planes to replace the existing ones. Long-term play!!

Everyone thinks that because the Republicans have been run out of office, companies like Boeing will be in trouble. But the truth of the matter is that while SOME Defense spending will be cut, it won't be companies like Boeing or Lockheed Martin who feel the brunt. This company will continue to outperform because they have strong processes and win contracts.

An Illinois company with union problems and product delays. At least they're not located in Michigan.

good people ... good aircraft ,,,good spacecraft ... great tankers ... B52H STILL in service since 1952 ... freight aircraft great ... IRAQ war winding down ... passemger traffic up with 1.50 gas and 2.24 diesel ... Oil People recognized that 5.00 gas kept people home and unleashed all the engineering talent everywhere to find alternate source of oil or develop capped sites here which were unprofitable at 30-80 a barrel... they dropped the price as inventories rose ... market forces worked ... Toyota held off on the Prius hybrid plant in Mississippi even though it is up, the equipment will not be put in yet.

Boeing is at 50% of value as is AAPL and LMT and NOC

Boeing has Gov contract for electro security border fence along mexico and canada border. Ten years to compleate.

The two Unions have 4 year contract. The 787 should fly in 2009. Their experiment in outsoursing didn't work, but they have recovered and have all 4 feet on the ground running. When they get the $60 Billion Air Force Tanker reflueling deal (over buying our defense planes from France) things should go way up for Boeing stock. They only have a back order of 3700 planes. I don't think $80 would be too high a prediction for July '09

Back to work on the 787.

This CAPS account is tracking the 200 highest yielding S&P stocks.

The roller coaster ride down is over. Now its the slow climb up to the top. With the work stoppage over and the 787-8 on its way to it's first flight. Now is a good time to own a piece of this company.

Boeings undervalued right now,If not for Oct/Nov. craziness stock should be $60+,Commercial/Defence spending take your pick,Strikes are resolved,Debt is low,Orders haven't been canceled,New year will bring new orders ,Dividends wil be disbursed,Now what's not to be positive about.In a sane world we'd add 20% value tomorrow.Seattle is an will be 1 of the strongests area's of the country financially through just about all sectors..

787 production will push Boeing high. It will just take a while for the effect to be seen, as the overall market downturn, current issues slowing the 787 progress and the union strike and negotiation settle.
It is a bargain opportunity for a 4+ year investor.

There has been a lot of money made selling this stock short. It has little to make you think it is the airplane builder that got us this far. Management is weak and makes bad decisions.
Still if they could get their selves in line they are still a good company.
It's hard not to buy at these prices.
