There have been instances over the previous few years that I puzzled if Boeing (BA) would ever get better from its personal miscues and the COVID-19 pandemic. Properly, BA and its peer group, aerospace ($DJUSAS), had been actually “flying” into the top of 2022. Try this chart:
Should you’ve been questioning how the S&P 500 has held up above the October low with all of the weak point seen in areas like expertise (XLK), client discretionary (XLY), and communication providers (XLC) over the previous two months, it is as a result of the cash rotating out of those three sectors is not leaving the inventory market. It is rotating!
Beforehand beaten-down areas like aerospace are all of the sudden hovering as tech cash finds a brand new house in different inventory market areas. That is important to ending cyclical bear markets. As a substitute of pure distribution, we’re seeing rotation. As technicians, we have to take note of the place the cash goes. Proper now, buyers and merchants are seeing a TON of worth in aerospace and in particular person shares like BA.
There’s one other HUGE potential catalyst for BA in 2023. I consider BA will reinstitute their quarterly dividend in 2023, or not less than there will be extra dialogue about that chance. BA hasn’t paid a dividend for the reason that pandemic started, however previous to that was a gradual dividend grower. Should you throw in enhancing fundamentals with a return of its quarterly dividend, together with the already-improving technical outlook, BA could possibly be poised to hold aerospace to BIG beneficial properties in 2023.
