Boeing's new labor agreement includes a 38% pay increase, causing a $1.2 billion rise in labor costs, but Boeing can still maintain profitability. Despite margin pressures, Boeing can offset increased labor costs through debt reduction, cost-cutting, and passing costs to customers, ensuring continued profitability. The margin impact on Boeing 737 MAX and 787 programs is manageable, with a modest sales price increase and no significant profit reduction.

Boeing Stock Has 37% Upside, According to 1 Wall Street Analyst
The FAA is reviewing an issue with the Boeing 737 Max's engine. Boeing may need to come up with a permanent solution, The Seattle Times reported.
Boeing Co (NYSE:BA, ETR:BCO) has landed an order worth US$2.38 billion for aerial refuelers from the US Air Force. A contract to build a further 15 KC-46A Pegasus tankers was unveiled on Thursday, adding to the 89 delivered to the US Air Force since 2019, Boeing said in a statement. “We appreciate our continued partnership with the US Air Force,” KC-46 programme manager Lynn Fox commented, “this is another big milestone for our team”. The tanker made its first full-scale operational deployment in October after receiving approval for missions by the US in 2022. The deal meant some 168 KC-46As were now under order globally, Boeing added. “We look forward to delivering the world’s most advanced multi-mission aerial refuelers for years to come,” Fox said.

Silver47 (TSX-V:AGA) Exploration Corp CEO Gary Thompson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce promising results from its 2024 drill program at the flagship Red Mountain Project in Alaska. CEO Gary Thompson joined Proactive to discuss findings from the first of six holes drilled this year, emphasizing the potential for high-grade infill drilling in the Dry Creek resource area. A total of 1,039 metres of drilling was completed across the Dry Creek, West Tundra Flats, and Kiwi prospects. Notably, drilling at Dry Creek uncovered several massive sulphide horizons within a 24.5-metre semi-massive mineralized section, yielding the highest gold grade interval ever recorded at the project. The mineralization remains open, signaling potential for further resource expansion. The Dry Creek Zone mineralization features multiple horizons of semi-massive to massive sulfides within the Totatlanika Schist, a geological formation known for hosting volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposits. These mineralized horizons, which include the Fosters and Discovery lenses, span a central 1,400 metres of the Dry Creek North Horizon and are rich in silver, zinc, lead, gold, and copper sulfides. Drilling also revealed geological features such as growth faults near the Fosters lens, suggesting proximity to a VMS feeder zone—a potential source of significant mineralization. With true width intersections reaching up to 40 metres, the findings underscore the project's high-grade potential and its capacity for long-term development. Silver47 continues to advance exploration at Red Mountain, focusing on defining and expanding its resource base while targeting deeper mineralized zones.
