Boeing (BA) Shares Rise as Analyst Upgrades to Outperform

October 29, 2009 12:44 PM EDT

Shares of Boeing (NYSE: BA) are outperforming the broader markets today, currently up 3.6% to $48.90.

Some of today's upside can be attributed to an upgrade from Macquarie Research early this morning. The firm moved its investment rating on the aerospace-giant from Neutral to Outperform, citing a recent pullback in the stock's price (down 10% since the end of Sept.).

Although Macquarie notes additional delays in the 787 Dreamliner program as a possible risk, it believes that underlying strength in the overall aerospace business cycle outweighs this potential headwind.
