Boeing's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) short percent of float has risen 9.48% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 25.06 million shares sold short, which is 3.35% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.07 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Boeing Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737125122_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Boeing has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Boeing's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Boeing's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.98%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Is The Market Feeling About Boeing?

Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) has reportedly restarted testing its long-delayed 777X widebody jet.
The company is conducting its first flight since the fleet was grounded in August following a critical engine mounting structure failure, reported Reuters.
The 777-9 test plane flew a round trip between Boeing Field in Seattle and Moses Lake, Washington. As Reuters mentioned, Boeing emphasized its commitment to a rigorous testing program but declined to share details on the flight&#8217;s performance.

This marks a significant step forward as Boeing works to overcome past challenges and advance the next-generation aircraft toward certification.

The 777-9 was grounded five weeks after starting certification flights with U.S. regulators, but Boeing confirmed no FAA staff were on Thursday&#8217;s test flight, per the report.

The 777X, Boeing&#8217;s successor to the 777 airliner, was originally set for delivery to Qatar Airways in 2020 but is now delayed to 2026.
Recently, Boeing&nbsp;reported that 57 commercial airplanes were delivered in the fourth quarter, with 348 annual deliveries in 2024.

Boeing Restarts 777X Testing After Grounding Over Engine Issue: Report

While RTX Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) is set to gain altitude with its steady growth trajectory, Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) still has to prove it can deliver <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/aerospace">beyond just maintaining expectations</a>.
Analyst Seth M. Seifman breaks down why RTX, formerly Raytheon Technologies Corp., is the preferred pick while Boeing remains a work in progress.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Raytheon's Growth Story Gains Altitude</h2>
RTX remains a &#8220;top pick&#8221; for 2025, with Seifman highlighting its potential for growth and margin expansion across its business segments. 
The firm sees an opportunity for RTX to benefit from &#8220;increased clarity on the FCF outlook,&#8221; making it a strong contender in the aerospace and defense sector. The analyst maintains a bullish stance on RTX, favoring its long-term trajectory over other names in the industry.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Boeing Needs More Than Just Expectations</h2>
Boeing, on the other hand, is facing a critical test. 
While the company has struggled with &#8220;much disappointment,&#8221; the analyst believes that merely &#8220;emerging from Q4 with the outlook intact&#8221; may not be enough. 
Investors need to see Boeing build and deliver aircraft at scale to restore confidence. While short-term cash outflows are expected in the fourth quarter of 2024 and into 2025, the bigger concern remains whether the company can execute effectively.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Northrop Grumman, ATI Also In Focus</h2>
Among other defense names, Northrop Grumman Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOC#NYSE">NOC</a>) stands out as a stock poised for a &#8220;clean quarter,&#8221; with the potential to differentiate itself amid concerns about defense budgets and industry structure.
Meanwhile, ATI Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ATI#NYSE">ATI</a>) is expected to report &#8220;good enough&#8221; results, though a dramatic turnaround in execution is unlikely.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Outlook: Betting On Stability Over Uncertainty</h2>
While Boeing's stock could see short-term relief if it meets expectations, Seifman leans toward stocks with greater clarity. 
RTX remains the favorite, as its business segments show consistent improvement. With continued uncertainty over Boeing's execution, investors may look to Raytheon for a more stable flight path in the A&amp;D sector.

Raytheon Takes Flight, Boeing Needs More Than Hype: Analyst

Sean Duffy, President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42053292/trump-picks-sean-duffy-as-next-transportation-secretary-says-he-will-usher-in-the-golden-age-of-travel">nominee</a> to lead the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), reportedly wants electric vehicle owners to pay for using roads. 
What Happened: Duffy revealed his opinion at his confirmation hearing on Wednesday before the Senate Committee, Reuters reported. Duffy also acknowledged that implementing the move would be &#8220;challenging.&#8221;
&#8220;They should pay for use of our roads,&#8221; Duffy said. &#8220;How to do that, I think, is a little more challenging.&#8221;
Revenue for federally funded road repairs is collected through taxes on diesel and gasoline, Reuters noted. As EV owners do not pay taxes for either of these two commodities, they do not contribute to the revenue. 
However, in certain states like Georgia and Illinois, EV drivers pay fees to cover the costs of road repair. 
Duffy on Wednesday also pledged to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43020202/trumps-dot-pick-assures-ongoing-tesla-fsd-investigation-and-rigorous-oversight-of-boeing">maintain rigorous oversight of</a> troubled planemaker Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) and continue safety investigations into Elon Musk&#8216;s EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) if confirmed.
Why It Matters: Current regulations pertaining to EVs are under question under the incoming Trump administration. Trump, during his Presidential campaign, swore to end what he termed &#8220;the electric vehicle mandate.&#8221; 
In November, it was also reported that&nbsp;Trump&#8217;s transition team&nbsp;is planning to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/41999238/ross-gerber-blasts-teslas-support-for-ending-ev-tax-credit-as-insanity-amid-reported-policy-shift-under-trump-administration" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">end the $7,500 consumer tax credit</a>&nbsp;for purchasing EVs under President Biden&#8217;s Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).
Duffy&#8217;s attempt to charge EV drivers for road use, however, cannot be implemented by the Department of Transportation alone and would instead require it to work with Congress and implement new legislation.
If confirmed, Duffy would oversee critical agencies including the FAA, NHTSA, and Federal Railroad Administration.

Trump's Nominee For DOT Reportedly Wants EVs To Pay For Using Roads

Former Rep. Sean Duffy (R-Wis.), and President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s pick to lead the Department of Transportation, pledged Wednesday to maintain rigorous oversight of Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41398764/nhtsa-opens-probe-into-2-4m-tesla-vehicles-after-reports-of-4-crashes-with-fsd-involved">continue safety investigations</a> into Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) during his Senate confirmation hearing.
What Happened: Duffy told the Senate Commerce Committee that Boeing needs &#8220;tough love&#8221; as it grapples with recent safety failures, including January 2024&#8217;s Alaska Airlines door panel blowout incident involving a 737 Max 9 aircraft.
&#8220;We have to make sure they are implementing their safety plan,&#8221; Duffy <a href="https://www.commerce.senate.gov/2025/1/full-committee-nomination-hearing_2">said</a>, emphasizing his commitment to working with the Federal Aviation Administration to restore global confidence in the aircraft manufacturer.
The former Wisconsin congressman also committed to allowing the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to proceed with its investigation into Tesla&#8217;s Full Self-Driving software. The probe, launched last October, covers approximately 2.4 million vehicles following four reported crashes.
When questioned by Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) about potential conflicts given Tesla CEO Elon Musk&#8216;s status as a Trump campaign donor, Duffy emphasized his independence. &#8220;I commit to this committee and to you that I will let NHTSA do their investigation,&#8221; he said, noting he hasn&#8217;t met industry executives.

Why It Matters: Duffy also signaled support for reforming highway funding to capture revenue from electric vehicle users, who currently don&#8217;t contribute to the Highway Trust Fund through gas taxes. This stance aligns with Trump&#8217;s previously announced plans to reshape EV policies, including the potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41988194/trump-plans-to-erase-ev-tax-credit-analyst-says-its-net-bullish-calls-sell-off-wrong-knee-jerk-reaction">elimination of consumer tax credits</a>.
The nomination comes as the transportation sector faces multiple challenges, from aviation safety concerns to evolving autonomous vehicle regulations. If confirmed, Duffy would oversee critical agencies including the FAA, NHTSA, and Federal Railroad Administration, with Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42053292/trump-picks-sean-duffy-as-next-transportation-secretary-says-he-will-usher-in-the-golden-age-of-travel">tasking him to usher in what he calls</a> &#8220;The Golden Age of Travel.&#8221;
Market analysts at Wedbush Securities have noted that a Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42076876/what-could-trumps-new-dot-pick-mean-for-evs-airlines-railroads">presidency could present headwinds</a> for the broader EV industry, particularly affecting startups like Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) and Lucid Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) if existing incentives are rolled back.

Secretary of Transportation: Former Wisconsin congressman and Fox Business host Sean Duffy will appear before the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee which oversees the Department of Transportation.&nbsp;
Duffy&#8217;s path to confirmation appears smooth, with support from both Republicans and Democrats on the Commerce Committee, <a href="https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2025/01/07/congress/sean-duffy-confirmation-hearing-00196809">according to</a> Politico.&nbsp;
Some of the topics at the Senate hearing may include electric vehicle policies, discretionary grant programs and Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>).&nbsp;&nbsp;
Airline stocks, including United Airlines Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) and American Airlines Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>), and EV stocks such as Tesla, Inc.

She will likely face questioning about her commitment to maintaining the Department of Justice&#8217;s independence and impartiality.
CIA Director: John Ratcliffe, former director of national intelligence and former Texas congressman, will go before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Wednesday. Ratcliffe is expected to face less resistance than he saw in 2020 due to his experience and qualifications.&nbsp;
Energy Secretary: Trump's choice to lead the Department of Energy is Chris Wright, fossil fuel executive and founder of fracking company Liberty Energy.

Boeing Reports 348 Planes Delivered In 2024, Beats Estimates Despite Production Challenges

Editor&#8217;s note: This story has been updated to correct the spelling of Eli Lilly in the headline. 
A cooler-than-expected December producer inflation report failed to ignite lasting gains on Wall Street Tuesday, reflecting lingering concerns about persistently high inflation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/inflation">among investors</a>.
Early session advances across major indices faded into modest losses by midday trading in New York, as market participants exercised caution ahead of Wednesday's pivotal Consumer Price Index report and key fourth-quarter earnings from top Wall Street banks.
The Producer Price Index rose 3.3% year-over-year in December, accelerating from November's 3% increase but missing the 3.4% forecast. On a monthly basis, producer prices climbed 0.2%, slowing from November's 0.4% rise and falling short of the 0.3% <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42974739/wall-street-rebounds-as-producer-inflation-misses-estimates-tesla-gains-chinese-stocks-rally">consensus estimate</a>.
Core PPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, increased 3.5% annually, matching November's pace but undershooting expectations of 3.8%. On a month-to-month basis, core inflation stagnated, showing zero growth compared to November's 0.2% increase, and coming in below forecasts for a 0.3% gain.
Bond yields continued to climb, underscoring persistent inflationary pressure. The 30-year Treasury yield advanced to 5%, its highest level since October 2023 and marking territory not seen since August 2007.
After a three-day rally, crude oil prices cooled. West Texas Intermediate fell 1% to $78 per barrel, as investors locked in recent gains.
Utilities and financials emerged as the session's strongest performers, while healthcare stocks were the largest drag on the market. Eli Lilly &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) plummeted 7.5% after the company issued a weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter sales forecast for its weight-loss drug Zepbound.
Peer Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) slid 5% in sympathy.
CEO Dave Ricks revealed that Eli Lilly anticipates regulatory approval for its oral weight-loss treatment, orforglipron, by 2026, with pivotal data expected in mid-2025. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rose 1.5% on Tuesday, bouncing back after three days of largely flat trading.

Pre-Market Outlook

Top 2 Industrials Stocks That May Fall Off A Cliff In January

The Edge founder Jim Osman is reportedly campaigning for a full breakup of planemaker Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>). 
What Happened: Osman <a href="https://www.barrons.com/amp/articles/boeing-stock-benefit-breakup-specialist-94f5dc7b">told</a> Barron&#8217;s that he would like to see Boeing split into its three main divisions of commercial aerospace, defense, and services. 
According to Osman, shareholders are not going to wait forever for the company to start creating value. "It's time for&nbsp;Boeing&nbsp;'s&nbsp;management to wake up and start creating value. The clock is ticking on [management's] job security and shareholders aren't waiting forever," he said. 
According to LinkedIn, Osman&#8217;s The Edge specializes in identifying &#8220;hidden corporate value.&#8221; According to him, there is a 100% upside in Boeing stock if the company undergoes a breakup. 
Why It Matters: Boeing has been faced with one crisis after the other over the past few years, starting in late 2018 when a Boeing aircraft went down in the sea off the coast of Indonesia. 
In January 2024, a door panel flew off an Alaska Airlines plane manufactured by Boeing, creating further concerns. The Covid-19 pandemic in the middle did not help the company&#8217;s financial constraints. 
Boeing stock is down 47% over the past five years and by 14% over the past year, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>. 
Boeing&#8217;s new CEO Kelly Ortberg, who took the reigns of the company in August, has since undertaken stringent measures <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42699274/boeing-engineers-leave-struggling-planemaker-for-space-companies-report">including layoffs </a>and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41606547/boeing-eyes-20-7-billion-windfall-as-stock-offering-expands-details">raising capital to salvage its financials.</a> There have been no announcements to date regarding a possible breakup. 
In the third quarter between July and September, Boeing reported a core operating loss of $5,989 million, up from $1,089 million in the corresponding quarter a year ago. The Global Services segment was its sole profitable segment in the quarter, creating earnings from operations of $834 million. 
The Commercial Airplanes and the Defense, Space, and Security segments incurred losses from operations of $4,021 million and $2,384 million, respectively, in the quarter.
Boeing has a consensus price target of $197.89, derived from the assessments of 22 analysts, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BA/analyst-ratings">tracked by Benzinga.</a> Barclays, Deutsche Bank, and JP Morgan released their most recent ratings on Jan. 6, Jan. 2, and Nov. 25, respectively, collectively suggesting a 19.64% upside potential.
