French Prime Minister Michel Barnier faces a critical vote of no confidence tomorrow (Dec. 4) after invoking Article 49.3 to pass a controversial 2025 austerity budget <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/france">without parliamentary approval</a>.
The move, designed to address France's soaring deficit with $42 billion in spending cuts and $21 billion in tax hikes, has polarized the fractured National Assembly. Marine Le Pen's National Rally and the leftist New Popular Front have united in opposition, calling for Barnier's ouster. In on interview on TV today, Barnier warned that if the motion succeeds, millions of French citizens could face economic instability, including rising interest rates and tax hikes, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2024/dec/03/france-no-confidence-motion-government-budget-michel-barnier-latest-updates">per</a> the Guardian.
A failure to secure support would result in Barnier's government being the shortest-lived in modern French history, he only took office in September, further destabilizing the eurozone. President Emmanuel Macron would then need to appoint a new prime minister to navigate the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39657677/french-elections-take-a-surprising-turn-as-left-poised-for-victory-what-does-that-mean-for-the-marke">deeply divided parliament</a>.
France has often been a volatile market for foreign companies, but its size, manpower, favorable geographical position, and pole position in global tourism have made it a lucrative economy.
The following publicly listed companies have exposure to the French economy.
McDonald's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>) has been operating in France since 1972. Since then, it has grown into a network of 1,485 restaurants — the most in Europe — generating billions in revenue. However, the franchise got caught evading taxes after a trade union asked the company to raise wages and introduce profit-sharing bonuses. Eventually, the firm <a href="https://drupal-cloudfront.benzinga.com/news/22/06/27724606/mcdonalds-agrees-to-settle-french-tax-case-for-1-3b-wsj">paid a $1.3 billion fine</a>.
Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) opened its resort in Paris in 1992, growing it into one of the top attractions in Europe. Around 16.1 million tourists visited the park in 2023, generating $343 million in profits. The park is the largest single-site employer in the country, with 17,000 workers — making it prone to strikes that last occurred in 2023. Despite its popularity, the park has been a problematic part of Disney's portfolio and is often a drain on its resources.
IBM (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>) has a long-standing relationship with France as one of the IT pioneers that expanded overseas seeking foreign talent.  Nowadays, IBM has over 7,000 employees in the country, working on technology services, cloud computing, AI and digital transformation solutions for businesses.
Carmaker Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) has a vital presence in the country, owing to its origins in the French PSA Group. It is the fourth largest automotive firm by sales, managing established brands like Citroen, Peugeot and DS Automobiles. Stellantis currently has five operating factories in different regions, producing at least 14 different models.
For investors monitoring broad exposure to domestically incorporated French companies there is iShares MSCI France ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWQ#NYSE">EWQ</a>). It holds 60 largest French companies, including market leaders such as LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LVMUY#OTC">LVMUY</a>), Schneider Electric, TotalEnergies SE (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTE#NYSE">TTE</a>) and Airbus SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EADSY#OTC">EADSY</a>).

Key Stocks, ETF To Watch As French Government Faces No-Confidence Vote

The commercial aerospace sector is gaining altitude, driven by surging demand for passenger travel, robust freight activity, and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/expert-ideas">resurgence in aircraft orders</a>.
According to Goldman Sachs analyst Noah Poponak, CFA, air traffic recovery is exceeding expectations, with growth now outpacing GDP by more than double. 
The sector&#8217;s strong fundamentals, buoyed by tight supply chains and rising aftermarket revenues, are positioning key aerospace stocks for a significant takeoff.
Here&#8217;s what you need to know — and the top stocks analysts say you should have on your radar.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Air Traffic Surpasses Pre-Pandemic Levels</h3>
&#8220;The overall commercial aerospace market is fundamentally strong,&#8221; said Poponak in a note Thursday. 
Global passenger traffic continues its remarkable climb as international air traffic jumped 9% year-over-year (yoy) in September, following an 11% yoy increase in August, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Passenger capacity rose in lockstep, up 9% and 10% yoy, respectively.
Goldman Sachs forecasts another 9% yoy gain for October based on airline reports. 
Forward airline schedules indicate that global passenger capacity will grow by 6% to 7% year-over-year through November, December, and January, reflecting sustained demand as travel appetite remains strong.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Freight Market Delivers Double-Digit Growth</h3>
The recovery isn't limited to passengers. International freight traffic surged 11% yoy in September, following a 12% yoy gain in August, with freight capacity expanding by 8% yoy in both months. 
Major cargo players FedEx Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) and United Parcel Service Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) also saw gains, with UPS reporting 11% yoy growth and FedEx posting a 3% yoy increase in global air cargo traffic.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Boeing, Airbus Rack Up Orders</h3>
Large commercial jet manufacturers are riding the wave of demand. In October alone, Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) secured 63 new orders, while Airbus SE (OTCPK: EADSY) booked 82 aircraft orders—both with zero cancellations. 
&#8220;New aircraft order campaigning activity appears to remain robust, for both growth and replacement,&#8221; Poponak wrote. 
Parked aircraft, which currently make up 11.8% of the total global fleet, remained flat month-over-month, further reflecting high utilization levels as airlines capitalize on the recovery in passenger and freight traffic.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Goldman Sachs' Top Stock Picks</h3>
Goldman Sachs&#8217; Poponak highlighted 11 buy-rated stocks that stand to benefit from the industry's resurgence. These include large aircraft manufacturers, component suppliers, and business jet producers.

Aerospace Ready To Take Off: Goldman Sachs Reveals 11 Top Picks In The Sector

<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-19/airbus-ceo-says-year-end-delivery-goal-is-a-tough-journey">https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-19/airbus-ceo-says-year-end-delivery-goal-is-a-tough-journey</a>
Airbus SE Chief Executive Officer Guillaume Faury said that hitting a goal of 770 aircraft deliveries this year will be a sprint over the final weeks as the planemaker pushes to reach an already reduced target.
"I've seen too many years where we had the last minute," Faury said in an interview in Brussels, where he was attending a conference. "It's a tough journey and we're a bit late compared to what we were expecting. 770 is still our reference and we're working against that reference, and hopefully it's going to work."

"Airbus CEO Says Year-End Delivery Goal Is 'A Tough Journey'" - Bloomberg News

Vietnam Airlines plans to issue requests for proposals in 2025 to acquire 50 new narrowbody jets, according to CEO Le Hong Ha. 
What Happened: The national carrier previously signed a provisional agreement with Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) for 50 737 MAX jets, but a final decision has yet to be reached as other manufacturers, including Airbus (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EADSF#OTC">EADSF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EADSY#OTC">EADSY</a>) and China's COMAC, remain in contention, Reuters reported. 
Vietnam Airlines currently operates a narrowbody fleet exclusively composed of Airbus models. With the airline projecting a need for 170 new aircraft by 2035, COMAC&#8217;s C919 could also be considered amid growing interest from Chinese manufacturers in the Vietnamese market.

Taiwan&#8217;s China Airlines is reportedly on the verge of splitting a substantial order for long-haul passenger jets between Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) and Airbus SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EADSY#OTC">EADSY</a>). This decision aligns with the recent U.S. presidential election outcome, where Republican Donald Trump reclaimed the presidency.
What Happened: The airline is evaluating Boeing&#8217;s 777X and Airbus&#8217;s A350-1000 models to replace its existing fleet of 10 Boeing 777-300ERs. The order could encompass up to 20 passenger jets, potentially divided equally between the two manufacturers. The decision on freighters remains uncertain, influenced by the political climate post-U.S. elections, Reuters reported on Thursday.
The estimated value of this passenger jet order is approximately $4 billion, considering standard industry discounts, as reported by aviation consultancy Cirium Ascend. The airline&#8217;s board is yet to finalize the decision, with no confirmation on the exact number and types of planes involved.

China Airlines, primarily owned by the Taiwan government, previously ordered 16 Boeing 787-9s in 2022. Despite past concerns, Taiwan&#8217;s government remains optimistic about maintaining robust relations with the U.S. under Trump&#8217;s leadership. The airline&#8217;s chairman, Hsieh Shih-chien, stressed that fleet decisions are made independently of political influence.
Why It Matters: The aerospace industry has been under scrutiny, with companies like Boeing and Airbus facing questions about their high valuations. Defense and aerospace stocks have shown a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41342896/aerospace-stocks-face-tough-questions-can-boeing-ge-airbus-justify-sky-high-valuations">remarkable 22% return</a> year-to-date, driven by geopolitical tensions.

Spirit Airlines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVE#NYSE">SAVE</a>) shares are trading higher in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">morning session on Friday.</a>
In an exchange <a target="_blank" href="https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0001498710/0421d62b-34a7-490a-bfc5-f62c6333ed1e.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">filing</a>, Spirit Airlines announced that on October 18, 2024, it entered into a binding term sheet with GA Telesis for the sale of 23 A320ceo/A321ceo aircraft at an expected total purchase price of approximately $519 million.
Delivery of the aircraft is scheduled to begin in October 2024 and continue through February 2025, contingent upon the execution of definitive documentation and other customary conditions precedent.
On October 24, Spirit Airlines provided an update to investors with preliminary estimates for its third quarter of 2024.
Spirit anticipates that the net proceeds from the recent aircraft sale, combined with the discharge of related debt, will enhance its liquidity by approximately $225 million through year-end 2025.

The estimated adjusted operating margin for the third quarter of 2024&nbsp;is expected to be about 300 basis points higher than the midpoint of previous guidance, driven by stronger-than-expected revenue from its transformation plan.
For the full year 2025, capacity is projected to decrease in the mid-teens percentage range, considering the aircraft sale, the increased removal of neo aircraft from service due to Pratt &amp; Whitney engine availability issues, the retirement of the remaining A319ceo aircraft, and the addition of six new A321neo aircraft.
To support its path to profitability, Spirit has identified approximately $80 million in annualized cost reductions, which it plans to implement starting in early 2025, primarily through workforce reductions aligned with expected flight volumes.
The company is also in active discussions with holders of its senior secured notes due 2025 and convertible senior notes due 2026 regarding their maturities.
Spirit Airlines had&nbsp;extended<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41457620/why-spirit-airlines-save-stock-is-moving" rel="noreferrer noopener"> its debt refinancing deadline too</a>.&nbsp;Recently, the company announced it modified its card processing agreement, extending deadlines for its 2025 notes.
This follows ongoing negotiations with&nbsp;U.S. National Bank Association regarding&nbsp;Visa and&nbsp;MasterCard payments.
Consistent with previous guidance, Spirit expects to conclude 2024 with over $1.0 billion in liquidity, which includes unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, short-term investment securities, and other liquidity initiatives, assuming successful completion of ongoing efforts.
According to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>, SAVE stock has lost over 30% in the past six months.
Spirit Airlines has faced selling pressure as planes were grounded due to an engine recall and the company's planned acquisition of JetBlue Airways Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>)&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41432467/why-spirit-airlines-stock-is-taking-off-monday" rel="noreferrer noopener">was blocked by regulators.</a>
Spirit has also missed analyst estimates on the top and bottom lines in two straight quarters.
Earlier this month, the Wall Street Journal&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41178053/spirit-airlines-engages-in-bankruptcy-talks-amid-financial-struggles-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> that Spirit was exploring potential bankruptcy options as it continues to battle financial challenges, including mounting pressure on its $3.3 billion debt load.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via U.S. Global Jets ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JETS#NYSE">JETS</a>).

United Airlines Executive Says Capital Expenditure Outlook Has A Downward Bias Due To Ongoing Airbus And Boeing Aircraft Delivery Delays, Which Are Unlikely To Be Resolved Quickly

As Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) grapples with a prolonged strike by its factory workers, Airbus SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EADSY#OTC">EADSY</a>) has reportedly decided to cut up to 2,500 jobs in its Defence &amp; Space division. This move comes in response to significant financial setbacks in its satellite projects.
What Happened: The European aerospace leader plans to implement these reductions, representing 7% of the division&#8217;s workforce, by mid-2026. The information was disclosed by two anonymous sources, as the official announcement is still pending, Reuters reported on Wednesday.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41308908/man-who-accidentally-threw-hard-drive-containing-8-000-bitcoins-worth-half-a-billion-dolla?itm_source=parsely-api" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Man Who Accidentally Threw Hard Drive Containing 8,000 Bitcoins Worth Half A Billion Dollars In Landfill Sues Local City Council For Not Excavating The Site</a>
Meanwhile, Boeing&#8217;s workers, demanding better wages and pensions, have entered the second month of their strike. A significant rally was held in Seattle, increasing the pressure on CEO Kelly Ortberg to address the workers&#8217; demands. Despite Boeing&#8217;s recent<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/technicals/24/10/41316208/stock-of-the-day-boeing-stock-sells-off-as-support-collapses-job-cuts-loom"> announcement of 17,000 job cuts,</a> the workers remain resolute. Washington state Congressional Democrats have urged both Boeing and the union to reach a fair agreement, acknowledging the workers&#8217; vital contributions.
Why It Matters: The aerospace industry is currently navigating a challenging landscape. Airbus recently secured 85 new orders, including a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41273419/airbus-announces-85-new-orders-pointers-show-air-india-is-purchaser-report">significant purchase from Air India Ltd.</a>, highlighting its ongoing demand. However, the decision to cut jobs reflects the financial pressures in its Defence &amp; Space division.
Meanwhile, aerospace stocks have<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41342896/aerospace-stocks-face-tough-questions-can-boeing-ge-airbus-justify-sky-high-valuations"> seen impressive returns</a>, with the iShares US Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF ITA showing a 22% year-to-date increase in 2024. Analysts, like RBC&#8217;s Ken Herbert, have noted the industry&#8217;s strong performance but question whether companies like Boeing and Airbus can sustain their high valuations amid geopolitical tensions.
Price Action: As per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, Airbus stock closed at $36.91 on Tuesday while Boeing closed at $36.85.

As Boeing Workers Enter Second Month Of Strike, Rival Airbus Reportedly Plans To Cut 2,500 Jobs

Defense and aerospace stocks, as tracked by the iShares US Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITA#BATS">ITA</a>) have returned a remarkable 22% year-to-date in 2024; an aerospace expert weighed in on whether companies can keep up with sky-high valuations <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/24/10/41150239/investors-look-to-gold-as-middle-east-tensions-rise-how-israel-iran-conflict-could-impact-pri">fueled by tensions</a> in the Middle East.
The Aerospace Analyst: RBC analyst Ken Herbert reiterated Outperform ratings for the following aerospace companies in a note published Monday:
<ul>
<li>Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), lowering its price target from $220 to $200.</li>
<li>General Electric Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>), raising its price target from $190 to $210.</li>
<li>General Dynamics Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>), maintaining its price target at $320.</li>
<li>Airbus SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EADSY#OTC">EADSY</a>), lowering its price target from 180 euros to 160 euros.</li>
</ul>
Industry Takeaways: Herbert noted the industry&#8217;s impressive performance in 2024.
&#8220;Investor sentiment into 3Q24 A&amp;D results is positive on defense stocks, with concerns about near-term incremental upside after the recent strength for many defense stocks. Sentiment seems universally bullish on the aerospace aftermarket, although these stocks appear about as crowded on the long side as we have seen,&#8221; the analyst said. &#8220;We believe the aero OE outlook is uncertain at best.&#8221;
The analyst noted his belief that aerospace valuations will hold in the near-to-mid term.
Boeing Takeaways: Herbert says that Boeing&#8217;s current risk-to-reward is favorable.
&#8220;We believe we are ~36 months into what should be a 4-to 5-year order cycle. Granted, the world is different today than it was for any prior cycle, but we expect demand for narrowbody aircraft to remain strong,&#8221; Herbert said.
The analyst believes that the ongoing labor strike at Boeing will be resolved before it releases its third-quarter earnings.
GE Aero Takeaways: Although Herbert raised General Electric&#8217;s price target, he simultaneously lowered expectations of 2024, 2025 and 2026 LEAP engine deliveries.
&#8220;While we are more cautious on revenue growth, we are raising our estimates for adj operating income and adj. EPS as GE Aero benefits from mix,&#8221; the analyst said. &#8220;We believe the healthy aftermarket demand fundamentals and continued favorable pricing on spare parts will offset downside risk to new LEAP deliveries, although investors will likely be focused on execution for this program.&#8221;
Herbert believes that the bear case for GE is &#8220;fading&#8221; amid efforts to derisk its balance sheet.
General Dynamics Takeaways: Herbert&#8217;s lowering of General Dynamics&#8217; price target comes amid pessimism in Gulfstream delivery estimates. The analyst sees headwinds ahead in delivering its G700 aircraft.
Herbert is still bullish on the company, with a perceived upside amid the continuing war in Ukraine.
Airbus Takeaways: The analyst&#8217;s lowered price target is attributed to lower delivery estimates in the near term. He believes the stock can perform well, even though the company will likely walk back its mid-decade target of 1,000 deliveries.
Herbert sees Airbus&#8217; core strengths as its strong backlog, cash position and margin expansion.
