Boeing Price Target Raised at BofA on Improving Sentiment
By: Investing.com | July 15, 2022

Boeing's (NYSE:BA) price target at BofA was boosted to $170 from $150 by analyst Ronald Epstein on Friday.

Epstein, who has a Neutral rating on the stock, told investors in a research note that the reason for the increase was to account for defense re-rating on improving US and Nato defense budgets following the Russia-Ukraine conflict and improving market sentiment heading into next week's Farnborough airshow.

We are increasing our relative valuation from 0.5x (one standard deviation below historical average) to 0.7x (in line with historical average) relative to the S&P 500."
