What Should Investors Make of Southwest's Big Boeing Order?
Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) delivered some good news to Boeing (NYSE: BA) shareholders earlier this month, announcing it would exercise options to buy 34 additional 737 MAX 7 airplanes on top of the 100-plane order it had announced back in March.
Southwest has been one of Boeing's key customers since the airline's inception, and the order is a welcome relief for Boeing after what has been a tough stretch for the 737 MAX, and this smaller variant in particular. On this clip from Motley Fool Live, recorded on June 10, Motley Fool contributor Lou Whiteman talks with "Industry Focus" host Nick Sciple about what the order means for both Southwest and Boeing.
