Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to make buy or sell recommendation for the Boeing Company’s stock based on the technical analysis and fundamental analysis. The technical analysis consists of analysis of return on equity; the company’s projected future growth of earnings; an analysis of its required rate of return using the CAPM measurement; and the company’s intrinsic value using the discount valuation technique. The fundamental analysis consists of describing the competitive forces in the industry including the company’s relative advantages and disadvantages to its competitors and a discussion on ROE as the basis for growth. Based on the technical analysis, we find that Boeing’s stock is overpriced. Its intrinsic value is $13.39 in 2011, which is substantially less than its current price. But, our fundamental analysis shows that Boeing Company has not only greater earnings growth but also little more ability to grow than its competitor Lockheed Marin Corporation. The Boeing Company also has strong prospect for earnings growth in coming years. Based on the technical and fundamental analysis, we recommend hold.
