You don’t have to fly into space to benefit from the volatility of aerospace and defense stocks.
While they’re valued at some of the highest on the market, they’re also liquid enough to realize six-figure profits for investors like you.
A recent deal between two big-name companies can put $319,850 towards whatever you want, but you have to act now.
The woes of The Boeing Company (BA) aren’t lost on even the most out-of-touch investors.
Two deadly crashes in less than a year spells disaster for even the most stable of stocks.
Luckily, the usually flawed sentiment that a company is “too big to fail” may actually apply here.
The nature of the beast in airplane manufacturing is that a duopoly rules all.
Airline companies are forced to purchase passenger jets and other aircraft from either Boeing or Airbus SE (EADSY).
That being said, if BA fails, Airbus will automatically have a monopoly in the market.
The government won’t allow that.
As a result, they will do whatever is necessary to keep Boeing afloat.
Now, the difference of a couple billion dollars on the price tag of a jet means little to you and me, but it means a lot to BA’s stock price.
The Paris Air Show 2019 didn’t expect much from Boeing, as they attempted to lick their wounds and fix their famous 737 Max jet.
Even I was surprised when International Airlines Group (IAG) wrote a letter of intent to purchase 200 of Boeing’s 737 Max jets upon their approval by aircraft authorities.
Granted, the purchase is at a 60% discount that amounts to a $14 billion reduction, but seeing as it’s Boeing’s first sale in months, I think they’re happy to take what they can get.
So, if BA is in such a bad position right now, why am I even talking about it?
Because even the keenest investors seem to be forgetting one thing: Boeing is so much more than airplanes.
In direct competition with SpaceX, Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s aerospace company, Boeing has made hefty promises on the space frontier in coming years.
With a lunar orbiter, Space Launch System, and spacewalker devices under way, the stratosphere is about to be imprinted with Boeing’s logo.
In addition, BA is resting nicely 11 points higher than this time last year, despite setbacks.
If you had invested in BA back in 2016, a $319,850 payout would have been yours.
Wherever you stand on Boeing’s mechanical problems, you have to admit that’s not chump change.
In the days to come, we’ll see more on how Boeing manages to pull itself out of this rut.
But with the backing of international airlines and government subsidies, this is as close to guaranteed as you’re going to get.
