: Boeing stock jumps to highest in nearly 18 months

Shares of Boeing Co. BA rose more than 3% in late trading Thursday, poised to close at their highest since Jan. 18, 2022, when they closed at $225, and on pace for their largest one-day jump since Feb. 7. A close around current levels would also be a new 52-week high for the stock, topping the 2023 closing high set on Feb. 14, when it closed at $218.45. Boeing earlier this week disclosed a new problem with its Dreamliner jets, but said the issue did not present a flight risk and kept its delivery estimates for the year the same.
