Buy, Sell, Or Hold Boeing Stock At $200?
AHMEDABAD, INDIA - JUNE 13: A commercial aeroplane is seen over of site of crashed Air India Boeing ... More 787, on June 13, 2025 in Ahmedabad, India. (Photo by) Boeing (NYSE:BA) declined by 5% on Thursday, June 12, following the devastating crash of an Air India 787 Dreamliner, resulting in the death of 241 individuals. Although the 787 is generally regarded as a very safe aircraft, Boeing has encountered considerable scrutiny and penalties over the past year due to ongoing quality control problems, especially regarding its 737 MAX fleet. Refer to – Boeing Stock Faces Fresh Crisis After 787 Dreamliner Crash. Despite its current price of approximately $205, which may seem like a reasonable valuation, we do not consider Boeing stock to be a compelling investment at this moment. Our evaluation, which compares Boeing's existing valuation to its recent operational performance and financial health, reveals several significant issues. We evaluated Boeing across critical criteria: Growth, Profitability, Financial Stability, and Downturn Resilience. Our results demonstrate that the company exhibits very poor operating performance and financial health, making it an undesirable investment at this time. However, if you are looking for potential upside with lower volatility than individual stocks, the Trefis High Quality portfolio offers an alternative — having outperformed the S&P 500 and delivered returns exceeding 91% since it was established. In terms of what you pay per dollar of sales or profit, BA stock is currently valued similarly to the overall market. Boeing's Revenues have experienced modest growth over the recent years. Boeing's profit margins are significantly lower than most companies in the Trefis coverage universe. Boeing's balance sheet appears moderately solid. BA stock has performed significantly worse than the benchmark S&P 500 index during several recent downturns. Concerned about the effects of a market crash on BA stock? Our dashboard How Low Can Boeing Stock Go In A Market Crash? provides a detailed analysis of how the stock has performed during and after prior market crashes. In conclusion, Boeing's performance in the parameters outlined above is as follows: Based on our evaluation, Boeing's lackluster performance across essential metrics is not adequately reflected in its seemingly moderate stock valuation. This discrepancy is why we believe BA stock is currently very unattractive and represents a poor investment. Naturally, our assessment may be incorrect. If Boeing successfully addresses its 737 MAX challenges and substantially ramps up production and deliveries, the stock could rise to higher levels. Nevertheless, from both an operational and financial viewpoint, it remains a risky choice. Be aware that there is always a significant risk involved when investing in a single stock or just a few stocks. Consider the Trefis High Quality (HQ) Portfolio which, with a selection of 30 stocks, has a history of comfortably outperforming the S&P 500 over the last four-year period. What is the reason? As a collective, HQ Portfolio stocks have generated better returns with less risk compared to the benchmark index; resulting in a less turbulent investment experience, as demonstrated in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.

China sends back Boeing planes amid increased tariffs
Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg said the company is working with China to take back planes the company sent to the country, amid the increased tariff war between China and the U.S. Ortberg said in an interview with CNBC that Boeing had three airplanes in China 'ready for delivery.' Two of them had already been returned, while the third was in the process of returning to the U.S., he said. 'They have, in fact, stopped taking delivery of aircraft due to the tariff environment,' Ortberg said. 'We have roughly 50 airplanes in our plan this year going into China, so we're going to be pretty pragmatic with what we do here for those airplanes that haven't been built yet.' Ortberg said the company may redirect the planes to other customers because there are 'plenty' of other buyers looking for a Max aircraft. 'We're not going to wait too long,' he said of new customers. 'I'm not going to let this derail the recovery of our … company.' Earlier this month, China ordered its airlines to stop accepting deliveries from Boeing amid the country's back-and-forth with President Trump over tariffs. Trump has placed a 145 percent levy on goods from China, which has reciprocated with a 125 percent tariff on the U.S. Trump, however, recently signaled he could reverse the high tax on China when he reaches a deal with Chinese President Xi Jinping. According to the New York Stock Exchange, Boeing's stock saw a 1.46 percent drop after China's demand to halt deliveries from the company. China has doubled down on its promise to oppose the U.S. tariffs, sparking a tense exchange between the two countries while others look to negotiate a deal with Trump. Boeing, which has experienced a string of aircraft-related incidents over roughly the last year, has sought to make up its lost status. Ortberg said Wednesday that there are 'drawbacks' to some of Trump's tariffs, but the company will 'manage' through an input tariff environment. 'The bigger issue is making sure that our supply chain stays healthy and we continue to see the supply chain making the deliveries and the tariff environment doesn't slow things down in the supply chain,' Ortberg said, noting the company has not 'seen that yet but we're really watching.' He said Boeing is working with its suppliers to see if the company can help them make it through the tariffs. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
