Yesterday, the Boeing Company (BA) announced that its board had authorized the purchase of as much as $7 billion in common stock or close to 10% of all the outstanding shares. This follows a $3 billion repurchase that begun in August last year and is nearing completion. This announcement comes right after the company reported a solid earnings last Wednesday. Boeing reported its third-quarter earnings were up almost 60 percent to $1.1 billion and revenues of $16.52 billion, beating Wall Street expectations. However, the company took a conservative stance with its outlook because of delays with the 787 Dreamliner and growth slowing at its defense unit. Boeing likes the value it sees in its stock and has been an aggressive buyer of it, buying back close to $8 billion since 2004. The Chicago-based company’s chief executive, Jim McNerney, said in a statement, “Our strong financial performance allows us to return value to our shareholders while continuing to invest in our growth and becoming more productive.” McNerney added, “We are executing a balanced cash deployment strategy that's serving Boeing and its shareholders well.”

11.25.09 | 18:11 PM Asked by Stockpickr Staff #2

A. Only a guess but the fate of the company
seems as though it is subject to the
outcome of a court ruling which could
very well be based political forces in
play . . . no different than how GM had
been manhandled when it was revamped by
the Obama administration. . . Thought
being that the puts represent someone
from one side or the other feeling
secure in their 'bet'.

Having said that, with a high debt
ratio, having such an extremely high run
up in stock price in the past 12 months
and good news baked in on the
possibility that a military contract may
be in hand, to short does not appear,
imo, to be wildly out of favorable
consideration. . . if only for a small
wager.
