Loop Capital analyst Chris Kapsch kept his Hold rating and $78 price target on Hexcel (HXL) in the wake of the Boeing (BA) 737max crisis. The analyst states that the issue appears to be around the plane's software/avionics, with nothing problematic with the composite-intensive plane structure or its engines, but believes that the flight halt by global airlines creates an "adverse sentiment for the entire commercial aero supply chain". While Hexcel is also a supplier for Airbus' (EADSY) A320neo jet, the shift in demand for that aircraft may not balance out the Boeing headwinds in the near term since the production capacity for the A320 remains constrained, Kapsch tells investors.
