Business is booming for American aerospace giant Boeing Co. (NYSE: BA). At least, it seems that way, judging by the more than $50 billion in potential new aircraft orders and contracts it procured in the last two weeks of March 2025. This is on top of the company's half-trillion dollars in backlog.
The aerospace sector leader shares a duopoly in the passenger aircraft industry with French rival Airbus SE (OTCMKTS: EADSY). By the looks of it, Boeing’s business is going to get even busier with more export tariffs looming that will persuade U.S. airlines to purchase their planes over their rival. Yet, the stock is still trading down -5.66% year-to-date (YTD) as of April 1, 2025. This could be the time to buy the dip during the market selloff.
