Home Strech 2013, Predictions and Outcomes For Boeing

Like everything in this world, nothing is for certain, but comes from a predictive nature from just being focused on one topic and knowing what will happen to X when Y occurs. However, the unpredictable nature of "Y" greatly affects "X" outcomes. Outcomes in the finacial world is that observation of the "Y's"  affecting the "X" factors in aviation in hind sight. Here is a short list of X's verses the  outstanding yet to occur "Y's" that are Identified by this blog for Boeing's 4th Quarter that just began going until January 1st or until day one of 2014. That date will incapsulate the "X" factor for 2013, affected  by the "Y" timeline of uncertain factors,  applied with outcomes were money is invested upon. The deliveries mark production, progress, and promise. The "Y" factor are customer promises based on its perception of Boeing's dilivered promise. Confusing, unlessless a person breaks it down on these two  principals.

Delivery (or X) is the validation of the program, operations is the validation of that delivery.

Orders are based on "Y" issues such as delays, functionality failures, and unforeseen external issues of the customer. Example, uncefrtainty over the 787 grows into a sefious "Y" problem holding off the X process of delivery and increased satifaction and more orderss.

The two X factors are:

Notes of interest from LiftnDrag are the high number of 737 orders during a three month period. If you notice very few 777 were ordered during the 3rd quarter. This could signal a huge 777-X orders flowing in at Dubai. Note that Lufthansa commitment of 34 777-X are waiting to become signature orders at this time, changing from a commitment, and will not realize fruation until after Dubai. 15 orders for the 777 in 3rd quarter is way below the annual pace in recent years of nearing a hundred orders for the model type. The big announcement will be the 150 + frames for the 777-X at Dubai, add Lufthansa before the end of the year and there will be almost two hundred 777-X before the end of the year in fourth quarter. Hence, only 15 777's were ordered in 3rd quarter.

The outlook  for the other wide bodies will be a hit and miss pace probably reaching out for a couple more 747-8's, and up to 15 more 787's. Fourth Quarter 737's should have one or two more surprises at the end of the year. There maybe another 100 orders for that type. In all, the order book could increase by 300 + by the end of the year for Boeing for all types.
