BUY ON WEAKNESS
BUY
They delivered a great quarter today, finally thriving because of the post-Covid travel boom. It's a cash flow story, not an earnings story, and cash flow came in much better than expected. Managers guided even higher. He once expected Boeing to do a major equity issue, but doesn't see that happening anymore. They're starting to win larger shares of plane orders. He predicts China, now out of lockdown, will order more planes from them and be a growth area again.

BUY
He's been adding to it over the last several months. Yes, BA is up a lot in recent months, but you can still start adding or starting a position. China could order planes as it warms relations with the US. Meanwhile, engine supplies are picking up after struggling.

PARTIAL BUY
Sure, the quarter was messy and management failed to execute. But there remains strong demand for places given the travel economy. There are not enough planes. It's hard to build a new airline from scratch. Onl this and Airbus are in this sector, so that's a moat. Plus, they have positive cash flow. Buy only partially, because it's volatile.
Transportation
BUY
Their troubles will play out, but boy it's taking a long time. Their Q2 earnings were much better than expected and 787s are being delivered again which is important for free cash flow. Shares jumped to $172 and now down to $157. He's adding to his position as shares have gone done. This is on sale. Ahead, China could re-certify the 737 Max, but before that Congress could extend the deadline the certification of the 737-10 Max. This is key. It's a good airplane and crucial to Boeing.

Aerospace is on fire with a backlog that can last years. Boeing yesterday just secured a mega order for planes from the Middle East, which he feels if the first of more to come. Yes, airplanes are highly cyclical, but planes get old like anything and need replacement--from China, US, South America. Boeing shares have fallen so far. Buy under $200.
