Indeed. Though personally I feel perhaps Boeing should be left to fail, I'm considering going long if the stock slides further in the short term because I anticipate some form of bailout/buyout.
I don't want to see it wind down as a going concern, but I wouldn't mind a bankruptcy and seeing the executives and board of directors fired with their compensation clawed back.
The already perilous union jobs, with good benefits etc, in Seattle would be lost and there would be a race to the bottom by other states to claim the production facilities.
Instead of a race to the top where people can just say five infinity dollars?
