Why Boeing shares could go down:

If many current elements about Boeing suggest that its stock price will go up, we must also take into account some elements rather in favour of a decrease in the price of this value:

• Losses linked to the pandemic: like all companies in the aviation sector, the Boeing group has suffered significant losses over the last few years, which it is currently struggling to consolidate.
• A lack of dividend: the group has stopped paying its dividend for the last two years due to the losses generated by the global coronavirus pandemic, which makes its share less attractive for investors.
• Penalizing policy changes: Recent government policy changes and higher taxes have also reduced the group's earnings.
• Criticism in defense: Finally, the group is of course also facing various criticisms regarding its involvement in defense activities.
