Ryanair places major Boeing order in bid to double traffic Tue, May 9, 2023, 7:23 AM EDT WASHINGTON/DUBLIN (Reuters) -Ireland's Ryanair unveiled a multibillion-dollar deal for as many as 300 Boeing jets on Tuesday, burying the hatchet with its biggest supplier after an 18-month public feud over prices strained one of aviation's closest partnerships. Europe's largest low-cost carrier said it was placing a firm order for 150 of the largest version of Boeing's narrow-body jet family, known as the 737 MAX 10, with options for another 150. Ryanair said the order would allow it to almost double its traffic to 300 million passengers per year by March 2034 from the 168 million flown to the end of March this year. It currently expects to fly 225 million passengers a year by 2026. On Monday, Reuters first reported that Ryanair was close to a major deal for Boeing jets. Earlier on Tuesday, sources said the deal could involve up to 200-300 jets including options. The deal delivers a boost to the largest version of Boeing's 737 MAX, a best-selling series whose deliveries have been depressed by a two-year safety crisis and post-COVID disruption. Ryanair has long expressed interest in the 230-seat MAX 10 variant, which has yet to be certified. But its boss pledged not to overpay for the 30 extra seats, telling Reuters in March he could also order more of the existing 200-seat 737 MAX 8200. The deal also marks a long-awaited truce between Boeing and Ryanair, whose outspoken Chief Executive Michael O'Leary last year broke off talks and issued a barrage of criticism over pricing and delays in the arrival of previously ordered jets. THIS IS BIG FOR BA!
It may be the stupidest game ever invented. Like the Peach basket is to basketball kick the can is to soccer. There is also an spooky, depression-like quality to activities created around a tin can that you may of just eaten out of. THE KICK-THE-CAN RALLY--- There is a good chance that Republicans want their summer vacations and Dems are just confused enough to kick the debt ceiling atomic bomb can down the road until sept.- What do the technicians think? We don't often see stock-market polls from fellow technicians, but invitees at an event celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Chartered Market Technicians Association in NYC were asked to forecast how the S&P 500 (SPX) would end the year. With the index drifting sideways for the past year, it's not surprising that a majority (55%) expected the index to remain range bound between 3,750 and 4,250 -- which is where we have been for most months going back to 2022. This is one of the basic tenets of technical analysis: the trend is your friend, until it isn't. It also is known as recency bias: what recently happened is expected to continue, as it is the freshest in the mind of most investors. The poll did tilt toward the bullish side, with 31% looking for a move on the SPX to above 4,500, while 11% were bearish.
