Boeing Stock: Saudi Deal Signals Potential Turnaround
Boeing's beleaguered shareholders received welcome news this week as multiple positive developments suggested a potential stabilization for the troubled aircraft manufacturer. The most significant boost came from Saudi Arabia, where aircraft leasing provider AviLease, owned by the Saudi sovereign wealth fund PIF, placed its first direct order with Boeing. The deal includes 20 firm orders for 737-8 jets with options for 10 more, valued at approximately $4.8 billion. This vote of confidence comes at a crucial time for Boeing, which has struggled with production problems and safety concerns in recent months. The stock responded positively, gaining over 2 percent on Tuesday and accumulating nearly 10 percent over four trading days.
Production Numbers Show Progress
April delivery figures provided additional reason for cautious optimism. Boeing delivered 45 commercial aircraft last month - nearly double the 24 planes delivered in April of the previous year. Notably, 29 of these were 737 MAX jets, Boeing's bestselling model that had previously faced production delays due to quality issues. April marked the fourth consecutive month with more than 40 deliveries, bringing the year-to-date total to 175 aircraft. Meanwhile, there are signs that China - a critical market that had effectively closed to Boeing - might be reopening. Reports indicate China may have lifted its months-long halt on Boeing deliveries, potentially resolving a significant obstacle for the manufacturer's recovery.
