Does Boeing pass our screen?
Boeing is one of 250 companies our rules removed at the 31 July 2026 review, because it generates little cash against the assets it owns, and earns a low gross profit on the assets it employs, and produces little free cash flow for the share price.
What the screen measured
Four things, and none of them is a forecast. How much cash the business produces against what it owns. How much free cash flow you get for the share price. Gross profit against assets. And how many days it takes to file results after a quarter ends — a company slower than its peers is usually a company having trouble closing its books.
Being removed is not a prediction that Boeing will fall. Plenty of removed companies do well. It means our rules stop looking there. We publish no price target and take no view on any individual company beyond this.
What this is not
Not a forecast that the shares will fall, and not advice to sell. It means one mechanical screen placed this company in the weaker half of the 500 largest US companies on the cash it generates, so none of the three portfolios includes it. No view is taken on the business, its management or its prospects, and no price target exists.
When this changes
Twice a year, in January + July. The next review is 31 January 2027, and nothing on this page changes before then unless the company stops trading.
The full exclusion list is free, with the reason beside each company.
