Boeing Stock Holds Firm Amid Strike Threat, Analysts See Up To 28% Upside

Boeing's stock price has remained relatively steady at $214.20 as of August 21, 2026, despite a looming engineers' strike that threatens to disrupt production and certification efforts for key aircraft models.

The Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace (SPEEA) union rejected a proposed four-year contract, authorizing a potential strike that could begin in October. The union represents around 17,000 engineers, scientists, technicians, and specialists at Boeing.

The strike threat comes as Boeing seeks to stabilize production and regulatory relationships after several loss-making years. The company's revenue growth has slowed down due to ongoing certification challenges for the 737 MAX 10 and 777-9 models.

Analysts expect significant upside from current levels, with a consensus price target of $272.58, implying a 28% increase from the current market price. However, valuation models suggest that the stock is slightly overvalued compared to its intrinsic value.
