United Nations Security Council members convened for an emergency session Wednesday in New York to address Israel, Lebanon, Iran and whether an all-out war in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/middle-east">Middle East is preventable</a>.
What Happened: Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon, in his remarks to the UN Security Council, called Iran&#8217;s missile strike the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/10/41126038/iran-attacks-israel-with-missiles-middle-east-tensions-escalates-s-p-500-stocks-bitcoin-fall-as-oil">&#8220;largest&#8221; in Israel&#8217;s history</a>. 
&#8220;The council must understand the situation Israel is forced to live in. We are under attack,&#8221; Danon said, citing how holy sites were targeted. 
Israeli defense systems intercepted most of the 200 missiles Tuesday as they prepped for ground operations, the <a href="https://apnews.com/live/israel-lebanon-ground-operation-updates">Associated Press</a> reported.
&#8220;The world watched silently as Iran funded and directed attacks against us for the past year, arming and training their proxies for decades,&#8221; Danon added. &#8220;Now the world must step up. Iran must pay a heavy price for this attack. Anything less is complicity.&#8221;
As of early Wednesday afternoon, the meeting remained in session. See video below.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bracing For Further Escalation</h3>
The UN meeting is taking place while Israeli troops&nbsp;battle Hezbollah militants&nbsp;inside Lebanon, making good on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu&#8216;s&nbsp;vow to retaliate, per <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-10-02/israel-vows-retaliation-for-massive-iranian-missile-attack">Bloomberg</a>.
The Israeli army Wednesday suffered at least eight fatalities since the ground operation began, CNN <a href="https://www.cnn.com/world/live-news/israel-iran-missile-attack-middle-east-10-02-24-intl-hnk#cm1rx3x98000e3b6qp2nmm7pn">reported</a> citing Israel Defense Forces. 
Iran launched the attack against Israel following the recent killing of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41079860/israel-tightens-grip-hezbollah-leader-hassan-nasrallah-killed">Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah</a>. 
Since its formation in the early 1980s, Hezbollah — which the U.S. considers a terrorist organization — has received substantial support from Tehran, which views the group as an ally in advancing its influence in the Middle East.
The White House promised consequences for Iran's attack on Israel. On Tuesday, President Joe Biden reiterated at the start of a meeting with officials: &#8220;Make no mistake, the United States is fully, fully supportive of Israel.&#8221;
Market Reaction: Following the missile attacks from Iran on Israel, plus Tuesday&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/10/41139919/private-sector-job-gains-outpace-forecasts-in-september-as-us-adds-143-000-jobs">job and economic data</a>, major stock indices dropped. As of early Tuesday afternoon:
<ul>
<li>The S&amp;P 500 was down slightly by 0.08%. </li>
<li>The Dow Jones was down by 0.02%. </li>
<li>The Nasdaq was up by 0.09%. </li>
</ul>
At last check, ETFs that track the indexes were up:
<ul>
<li>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) was down 0.01% at $568.56 Tuesday.</li>
<li>SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>) was down slightly at $421.23.</li>
<li>The Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which tracks the Nasdaq 100, is up 0.22% to $482.33.</li>
</ul>
&#8220;Financial markets have reacted as one would expect to the heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, with a bout of risk aversion sweeping through asset classes in the past 24 hours,&#8221; said Matthew Ryan, head of market strategy and global financial services at Ebury.
Equity markets are trading lower and, in currencies, the safe-havens have outperformed most of their peers, he adds. This includes the U.S. dollar, which remains buoyed following some hawkish <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/speech/powell20240930a.htm">comments</a> from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Monday.
The conflict is also causing broader concerns for inflation and central bank policy. Higher oil prices could undermine the U.S. Federal Reserve&#8217;s efforts to control inflation, potentially delaying future interest rate cuts, per <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/stock-markets-slump-oil-jumps-as-iran-attack-sparks-fear-of-all-out-war-in-mideast/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Times of Israel</a>.
What To Look For: Ryan says investors are &#8220;rightly fearful&#8221; that Israel&#8217;s retaliation could disrupt oil supplies. After all, Iran is the seventh-largest oil producer in the world. 
The price of gold and oil both spiked higher after the attack. The United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>) was trading slightly higher on the day at $72.13 at last check while the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) is down 0.11% to $245.33 Wednesday. 
&#8220;The wider implication for markets is the rising possibility of a sharp move higher in global oil futures, and another period of elevated energy prices and consumer inflation,&#8221; Ryan says.
The ramifications will not be &#8220;anywhere near as severe&#8221; as those that followed Russia&#8217;s invasion of Ukraine, Ryan adds. &#8220;So far, at least, the moves in markets have been relatively contained.&#8221;
Defense ETFs, as of Wednesday afternoon, were trending up:
<ul>
<li>IShares U.S. Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITA#BATS">ITA</a>) rose 0.37% to $151.91.</li>
<li>Invesco Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PPA#NYSE">PPA</a>) is up 0.15% to $116.10. </li>

Markets Turn Risk-Off As Israel, Iran Clash: Investors 'Rightly Fearful' Of Oil Disruption, Strategist Says

When navigating a changing business cycle, such as today&#39;s triggered by the Federal Reserve (the Fed) cutting interest rates, investors should focus on fundamentals and keeping a risk-to-reward profile that favors their portfolios in the coming quarters. For this reason, stocks that trade near their 52-week lows are a great place to start looking for potential value and recovery plays.
There are those who believe that stocks will trade down for a reason, and while they may be right, that isn&#39;t always the case; otherwise, value investors like Warren Buffett would have been out of business a long time ago. Fitting the list of 52-week low stocks are names like FedEx Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fdx#NYSE">FDX</a>) after a recent earnings sell-off to represent the transportation sector, coupled with another transport stock being beaten down for a while now, and Boeing Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ba#NYSE">BA</a>).
To diversify away from the transportation sector, which is highly tied to the business cycle, investors can look to the energy sector, this time at a Buffett favorite. Shares of Occidental Petroleum Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/oxy#NYSE">OXY</a>) are down despite the news of Buffett buying out, and that creates enough of a sentiment divergence for investors to start digging into the possibility of a pending recovery.
<h2>Why FedEx Stock Has No Reason to Stay at Its Lows Today</h2>
After the company reported a slower-than-expected quarter, FedEx stock crashed lower by as much as 17% from its previous highs. However, many market participants felt comfortable with buying the dip, as judged by the quick recovery, which brought the stock higher by 7.5% within the week.
Investors should look deeper into FedEx stock because management has realized what needs to be done to navigate the new business cycle, which is bringing lower business shipping demand as activity slows down. One gauge investors can use for FedEx&#39;s potential activity is the manufacturing PMI index.
As the Fed just cut interest rates, the potential for the index to bottom and start to expand again is higher than the potential for it to remain at current lows. Knowing that the risk-to-reward scale is starting to tilt in favor of buyers, Wall Street analysts have remained bullish on FedEx&#39;s future.
Those at Stephens think that FedEx stock is worth up to $350 a share, calling for a net upside of 27.2% from where the stock trades today. Even bearish traders decided to stay away from FedEx stock despite the recent sell-off, as short interest declined by 8.5% over the past month alone to signal bearish capitulation.
<h2>Buyers Are Slowly Returning to Boeing Stock at Its Lows: Is a Rebound Coming?</h2>
The average volume for Boeing stock is 8 million shares, but over the past week, this metric has risen to 18 million shares. Just like any product that attracts more activity as lower prices are taken as a discount, investors can interpret this as market sentiment voting for Boeing being on the cheaper end.
As interest rate cuts make their way through the global economy, investors can safely assume that travel demand may be on the rise, and that&#39;s where Boeing stock comes into play. The company recently sent out a press release quoting the upcoming Chinese demand for the next decade, looking to grow at high single-digits.
China also cut interest rates by 50 basis points, creating more tailwinds for future aircraft demand and leaving Boeing with up to $515.8 billion worth of backlog orders on the back of these growing trends. Realizing that these orders will eventually turn into revenue and earnings, Wall Street analysts are reflecting this trend in earnings per share (EPS) forecasts.
Analysts think Boeing could deliver up to $1.16 in EPS next year, significantly better than today&#39;s net loss of $2.9 per share. These tailwinds and forecasts drove price targets higher, as those at Jefferies Financial now value Boeing stock at $240 a share, or nearly 60% higher than today&#39;s prices.
<h2>Could Buffett Buy More Occidental Petroleum to Shake Off the Bears?</h2>
Now that Occidental Petroleum stock trades at only 72% of its 52-week high, investors might expect Warren Buffett to add to his now-losing position. As the tension grows around this possibility, the stock&#39;s short interest has declined by 2.7% in the past month and has been on a downtrend during the past quarter.
The main reason the stock is compressed today is the current oil price, which has struggled to remain above $70 consistently, significantly capping the company&#39;s earning potential. However, this shift in sentiment is starting to spill over to Wall Street, as more analysts see double-digit upside for Occidental stock in the coming months.
Those at Mizuho and Susquehanna see a respective $72 and $78 price target on Occidental Petroleum stock, which calls for as much upside as 53.5% now that the stock trades near its 52-week low. Again, as interest rate cuts work their way through the economy, business demand could trigger a new oil cycle higher.
Other oil stocks higher in the value chain, like Chesapeake Energy Co. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/chk#NASDAQ">CHK</a>), have taken off by over 20% recently on these expectations, so it is a matter of time before Occidental follows with a similar double-digit rally.

Decoding Boeing's Options Activity: What's the Big Picture?

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has criticized Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) for its reported handling of the ongoing workers&#8217; strike, using it as a case to advocate for Medicare for All.
What Happened: Sanders took to X on Tuesday to express his views on the ongoing strike at Boeing. He criticized the aerospace giant for its &#8220;greed&#8221; and used the situation to advocate for Medicare for All, a policy he has long championed.

Shares of travel and hotel-related stocks are trading lower amid heightening geopolitical tensions after Iran launched a missile attack on Israel, which could impact global travel demand.

Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) is contemplating raising at least $10 billion by issuing new stock to replenish its cash reserves.
The aerospace giant&#8217;s stock dipped approximately 1% following the news. Shares were trading at $150.65 during pre-market hours on Tuesday, down from Monday's close of $152.04, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
As per <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-10-01/boeing-said-to-weigh-raising-at-least-10-billion-selling-stock?srnd=phx-deals">Bloomberg</a>, Boeing is reportedly collaborating with advisers to evaluate its options. The equity raise is not expected to occur for at least a month, contingent on resolving the ongoing strike involving 33,000 workers.
The company aims to fully understand the financial impact of the strike before proceeding with the stock sale, according to sources familiar with the matter who requested anonymity.
Boeing has yet to respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> queries.

Why It Matters: The decision to raise funds comes at a critical time for Boeing. The company is grappling with a strike by 33,000 machinists who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41104688/why-are-boeing-shares-trading-lower-today">recently rejected a labor offer,</a> raising concerns over potential operational disruptions and prolonged negotiations. This strike has already impacted Boeing&#8217;s stock.
Adding to Boeing's challenges, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has issued urgent safety recommendations regarding the rudder control system on Boeing 737 airplanes. The NTSB highlighted that over 40 foreign operators might be using these aircraft with rudder control components that could pose safety risks. This follows a February incident involving a United Airlines flight and similar issues experienced by two foreign operators in 2019.

Boeing Dips In Pre-Market As Struggling Plane Maker Considers Raising $10B Through Stock Sale Amid Strike

Boeing Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) shares are trading lower after its striking machinists rejected a labor offer, raising concerns over possible operational disruptions <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/41059652/boeing-737-max-jets-face-new-safety-concerns-over-jamming-pedals-as-investigators-point-out-mois">and prolonged negotiations. </a>
What To Know: Adding to Boeing&#8217;s challenges, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) issued urgent safety recommendations regarding the rudder control system on Boeing 737 airplanes, according to Reuters. 
According to the NTSB, over 40 foreign operators may be using the Boeing 737 aircraft with rudder control components that could pose safety risks. This follows a February incident involving a United Airlines flight and the NTSB also revealed that two foreign operators had experienced similar issues in 2019.
National Transportation Safety Board Chair Jennifer Homendy expressed concern that many airlines may be unaware of the presence of these potentially problematic actuators on their aircraft, prompting the safety board to call for immediate attention from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and affected operators.

Why Are Boeing Shares Trading Lower Today?

U.S. National Transportation Safety Board Says At Least 40 Foreign Operators May Be Using Boeing 737 Airplanes That Have Rudder Control Parts That May Pose Safety Risks

Boeing shares are trading lower after the striking machinists rejected the company's offer.

Israel has told the U.S. it is considering putting troops <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/09/41030927/israel-considers-ground-invasion-calls-up-reserve-brigades-as-conflict-escalates-in-lebanon-90k-">on the ground in Lebanon</a>.
The decision, reported <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/09/30/israel-lebanon-hezbollah-hamas-war-news-gaza/">by</a> the Washington Post, which cited an unnamed U.S. official, comes as Israeli forces carry out air raids in Lebanon and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejects <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/09/41056542/israel-plans-to-disrupt-arms-delivery-from-iran-to-lebanon-in-motion-as-palestinian-president-cr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">international calls for a cease-fire.</a>
Here&#8217;s a breakdown of the latest developments coming from the region:
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Impact</h3>
Oil prices showed little reaction on Monday following the death of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41079860/israel-tightens-grip-hezbollah-leader-hassan-nasrallah-killed">Israeli airstrike in Beirut</a>. 
Brent crude currently hovers between $73 and $74 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate increased by 0.23% to $68.34 at last check Monday. 
Observers noted that oil supply disruptions have been minimal since fighting between Israel and Hezbollah resumed in October 2023 in the weeks following Hamas&#8217; attack on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35136071/israel-under-siege-unprecedented-hamas-attack-sparks-intense-clashes-netanyahu-says-we-are-at-war">an Israeli musical festival</a>.
The U.S. considers both Hezbollah and Hamas to be terrorist organizations. 
Increased production from the U.S., Canada, and Guyana, combined <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/08/40596334/asia-markets-mixed-europe-gains-crude-oil-falls-on-chinese-demand-concerns-global-markets-today-whil">with weak Chinese demand</a>, is keeping the market stable. 
Reports indicate that oil prices could spike to $100 per barrel if the Strait of Hormuz—a vital route responsible for transporting about 20% of global oil — were to be affected.
ETFs To Watch: Despite heightened tensions, the market seems to be pricing in stability for now, barring any significant disruptions. United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>) was down 0.38% at last check Monday due to rising tensions.
U.S. defense stocks, tracked by the iShares U.S. Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITA#NYSE">ITA</a>), are up 18.08% year-to-date.
Specific defense stocks did not gain as of Monday&#8217;s midday trading:
<ul>
<li>Lockheed Martin (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>), down 0.4% to $580.</li>
<li>The Boeing Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), down 2.38% to $152.60.</li>
<li>Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOC#NYSE">NOC</a>), down 0.75% to $522.84.</li>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Targeted Raids</h3>
Israel has been conducting targeted raids into southern Lebanon as part of efforts to push Hezbollah away from its northern border. These operations, described as intelligence-gathering and probing missions, come ahead of a potential broader ground incursion.
Hezbollah deputy leader Naim Qassem <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/hezbollah-deputy-leader-vows-terror-group-prepared-to-face-potential-idf-ground-op/">asserted</a> that the group is prepared for a prolonged conflict if Israeli troops enter by land, per the Times of Israel. 
Lebanon's Prime Minister Najib Mikati does not share the same sentiment and continues to call for a ceasefire.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What&#8217;s Next</h3>
On Monday, Reuters reported that the Lebanese government is looking to end Hezbollah&#8217;s armed presence south of the Litani River by invoking UN Security Council Resolution 1701. 
UNSC Resolution 1701 was adopted unanimously back in August 2006, ending the previous war between Hezbollah and Israel. 
The effectiveness of the resolution today depends on the political and military context, and the cooperation of the involved parties, particularly Israel, Hezbollah, and the international community.
It called for a cessation of hostilities and outlined a framework for a lasting peace between the parties involved.
Mikati is looking to elect a new president once a ceasefire occurs, ending a nearly two-year vacancy at the top post.

Oil Prices Remain Steady After Hezbollah Leader's Death, Israel Informs US Of Potential Ground Incursion Into Lebanon

SpaceX's Crew Dragon capsule successfully docked at the International Space Station on Sunday, NASA confirmed on X stating, &#8220;The official welcome!.&#8221;
What Happened: The capsule will bring back two Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) astronauts who have been stuck in space for months. Musk announced, &#8220;Dragon has reached,&#8221; tagging the ISS in his X post.
The spacecraft transported NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov to the ISS for their five-month science mission. They will return with the stranded Boeing astronauts.
The Crew Dragon has two vacant seats for Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who will return to Earth in February. Initially planned for eight days, their mission was extended due to a malfunction of the Starliner capsule on Jun. 5.
The Starliner, on its maiden flight, experienced thruster failures and helium leaks, prompting NASA to return the capsule to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41080888/spacex-steps-in-to-rescue-stranded-nasa-astronauts-stuck-at-iss-due-to-boeing-starliners-issues-elon">Earth without the astronauts</a>.

Why It Matters: The rescue mission by SpaceX underscores the ongoing challenges faced by Boeing in its space endeavors. SpaceX launched a half-filled Crew Dragon spaceship into orbit specifically to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41080888/spacex-steps-in-to-rescue-stranded-nasa-astronauts-stuck-at-iss-due-to-boeing-starliners-issues-elon">rescue the stranded astronauts</a>. Normally, the Crew Dragon is designed to transport four astronauts, but this mission was unique due to the safety issues with Boeing's Starliner.
This mission also comes amid a backdrop of tension between SpaceX and the Federal Aviation Administration. Musk recently called for the resignation of FAA chief Mike Whitaker, citing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41041586/spacex-ceo-elon-musk-calls-for-resignation-of-faa-administrator-mike-whitaker">mounting tensions between the federal agency</a> and SpaceX.

Elon Musk Confirms Crew Dragon's ISS Arrival — SpaceX Capsule To Rescue Stranded Boeing Astronauts, Crew 9 Gets Warm Welcome

SpaceX on Saturday launched a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40546859/boeings-former-ceo-dennis-muilenburg-said-in-2017-his-company-will-beat-elon-musk-to-mars-7-years-la">half-filled Crew Dragon spaceship </a>into orbit. The mission was to rescue two astronauts who had been left stranded in space.
What Happened: Under normal circumstances, the Crew Dragon is designed to transport four astronauts at a time. However, this mission was unique as it only carried two passengers. The reason behind this was a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40571227/while-elon-musk-is-busy-taking-a-dig-at-boeing-after-starliner-fails-to-bring-astronauts-back-from-i">significant safety issue </a>with Boeing&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) Starliner ship, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/spacex-launches-half-empty-dragon-spaceship-boeing-astronaut-crew-return-2024-9">reported</a> Business Insider.
In June, astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams had the honor of being the first to fly aboard the Starliner. However, as the ship approached the International Space Station (ISS), its thrusters malfunctioned. Despite managing to dock successfully after some troubleshooting, both NASA and Boeing were left unsure about the reliability of the thrusters for the return journey.
After conducting thorough testing and reviews, NASA decided not to gamble with the astronauts&#8217; lives by using the Starliner again. This decision threw a wrench in NASA&#8217;s human spaceflight schedule as the Starliner was sent back to Earth without its crew.

Wilmore and Williams will now be coming back to Earth aboard the SpaceX Crew Dragon that was launched on Saturday. Nick Hague and Aleksandr Gorbunov will join them on the ISS for a mission that will last several months, with a return home scheduled for February at the earliest.
Both SpaceX and Boeing developed their spaceships as part of NASA&#8217;s Commercial Crew Program. However, SpaceX&#8217;s Crew Dragon, which cost $2.6 billion, was significantly cheaper and faster than Boeing&#8217;s Starliner, which received $4.2 billion from NASA. Despite facing technical issues and delays, Boeing has had to bear all additional expenses due to its fixed-price contract with NASA, resulting in a loss of about $1.6 billion on Starliner.
Why It Matters: Elon Musk&#8216;s SpaceX has been making significant strides in the space industry, with plans to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40550547/spacex-to-ramp-up-operations-next-year-elon-musk-says-his-rocket-manufacturing-company-will-execute" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ramp up operations</a> and execute missions every two days in 2025. Musk has also been vocal about his intention to colonize Mars using SpaceX's newest giant rocket, Starship.
This came after Musk took a dig at Boeing, saying <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40548925/spacex-ceo-elon-musk-takes-a-dig-at-boeing-says-aircraft-companies-cannot-dominate-space-travel-indu" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">aircraft companies would not dominate the space</a> industry, similar to how car makers cannot dominate the aircraft business.

SpaceX Steps In To Rescue Stranded NASA Astronauts At ISS Due To Boeing Starliner Issues: Elon Musk's Company Sends Half-Empty Crew Dragon To Bring Butch Wilmore And Suni Williams Home

Live On CNBC, Brenda Vingiello Announces Bought Eaton, Sold Boeing

Safety investigators have recently issued urgent recommendations to Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) and the Federal Aviation Administration following the discovery of a potential safety issue with the 737 Max jets. The issue pertains to the pedals used by pilots to steer the aircraft on runways, which can reportedly become jammed due to moisture leakage.
What Happened: The National Transportation Safety Board has discovered that moisture can seep into the rudder assembly and freeze, causing the pedals to jam. This finding was the result of an investigation into an incident involving a United Airlines Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) plane earlier this year.
The NTSB has found that the faulty work affected at least 353 actuators installed on some Max jets and older 737s. The NTSB has advised Boeing to modify flight manuals to eliminate advice that pilots use maximum pedal force to overpower a jammed rudder, as this could cause sudden rudder movement and potentially lead the plane to go off the runway.

Why It Matters: This latest safety concern adds to the list of issues that have plagued the 737 Max jets. The aircraft were grounded worldwide in March 2019 following two fatal crashes that claimed 346 lives. The planes were allowed to return to service in November 2020 after Boeing made <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/09/40960505/boeing-in-a-death-spiral-of-their-own-making-according-to-a-consultant-as-employees-already-have-a-d">significant changes to the flight control system</a>. 
Price Action: Boeing Co&#8217;s stock closed at $154.58 on Thursday, up 1.55% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock slightly increased 0.0065%. However, year to date, Boeing&#8217;s stock has decreased by 38.60%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/login">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
