The ongoing strike by 33,000 Boeing machinists has already cost the company $572 million in losses, according to an estimate from Anderson Economic Group, a Michigan-based research firm specializing in estimating the economic impact of disruptions like strikes.
The strike by the International Association of Machinists (IAM) union, which reached its seventh day, sparked concerns of a greater economic toll if a settlement isn't reached soon, Patrick Anderson, founder, and president of Anderson Economic Group told CNN.
