I'm sure this will end well for them...
- snowwrestler 7y agoHa! Yeah, the light touch worked so well for the 737 MAX. Well at least the first flight of their capsule will be unmanned...
- dnautics 7y agoOh no kidding. I'm putting puts on BA ahead of their upcoming capsule failure in two weeks.
- CamperBob2 7y agoExcept the whole point of this subthread is that Boeing's stock price never faces any actual consequences, regardless of how badly the company screws up. Boeing will not be allowed to fail, even if it personally bankrupts every taxpayer in the United States. And they know it.
- dnautics 7y agoPuts are short term, not long term. I agree that boeing will not be allowed to fail. Let's assume that it gets that bad. At what valuation will the company in the immediate wake of a bailout? 125% of current value? Or 75% of its current value?
