Boeing Featured in Nearly All US Trade Deals—Here’s Why

The skies are clearing for Boeing these days as it emerges as the clear winner of trade deals during the tariff negotiations between the United States and its trading partners, according to analysts. Advantages include exceptions from tariffs and the purchase of scores of aircraft from the company.

Under the EU–U.S. trade agreement announced on July 27, the United States will increase tariffs on EU imports to 15 percent, with an exemption for aircraft and aircraft parts—an outcome that benefits Boeing, as it strives to rebuild its tarnished image from accidents and prolonged strikes that have resulted in sizable losses in recent years.
