BofA analyst Andrew Obin said yesterday's announcement from Boeing (BA) increases the likelihood that its 737 MAX production pause extends through the first half of 2020, which presents a risk to General Electric (GE), Honeywell (HON), Parker-Hannifin (PH), Eaton (ETN), and Rexnord (RXN), which all have exposure to the MAX program. While he believes investors may look through 737 MAX issues in the first half, he also thinks investors may underestimate the impact on secondary and tertiary suppliers and broader U.S. industrial firms, Obin stated. He maintains a Neutral rating on GE shares and looks for more details to come about the MAX on the company's earnings call on January 29.
