While Trump valued the deal at $200 billion, aviation analysts suggest the actual figure may be lower, as airlines typically receive substantial discounts on bulk orders. Based on recent published values for Boeing’s most expensive jet, the 777X, 160 of these long-range aircraft would be worth approximately $70 billion before discounts. The specific Boeing aircraft models included in the deal were not disclosed, nor was it clarified whether these are firm orders requiring deposits or options. The deal comes as part of Trump’s broader Middle East tour, which included stops in Saudi Arabia where several other business agreements were signed.Join our Telegram group and never miss a breaking digital asset story.Boeing Stock Gains in Today’s Trading SessionBoeing’s stock responded positively to the news, trading at $207.19 per share as of midday, up $3.77 or 1.85%. The company’s shares have performed well in 2025, with year-to-date returns of 17.06%, significantly outpacing the S&P 500’s modest 0.25% gain during the same period. The stock has risen 14.62% over the past year, compared to the S&P 500’s 12.38% increase. While the Qatar Airways deal represents a significant boost for Boeing, the company continues to face financial challenges, including negative earnings per share of -$17.96. The aerospace giant’s market capitalization currently stands at approximately $156.22 billion. Today’s trading volume is notably higher than average, indicating strong investor interest in response to the Qatar Airways announcement. The deal represents a crucial win for Boeing following several challenging years marked by the 737 MAX crisis and pandemic-related disruptions to the aviation industry.Disclaimer: The author does not hold or have a position in any securities discussed in the article.
