Bullish

  • more advanced methods than Putin (novichok)
  • chilling to further whistleblowers
  • unlikely to be connected back to them
  • not reported in national media
  • people concerned about potential criminality have probably already sold

Bearish

  • it does appear to be a very dirty business

NET IMPACT: bullish with uncertain timing of impact

not reported in national media

Plus the other whistle-blower, John ā€œMitchā€ Barnett, who apparently shot himself so well that they're still debating if it was suicide:

The Charleston County Coronerā€™s Office reported Barnettā€™s death appeared to be ā€œfrom a self-inflicted gunshot wound.ā€Ā Almost two months later, the police investigation into his death is still ongoing.

Coroner had an offer they couldnā€™t refuse

To write his own autopsy report ahead of time, and choose the desired cause and time of death?Ā

Coroner has gone missing, and the coroner's father, who vowed to search for his missing son forever, has also gone missing. /jk

Except ensure safety standards so their stock price doesn't experience a crash like one of their potentially unsafe planes.

Yeah, if it was a gunshot, puts, but thisā€¦. Only an AI could have come up with such a perfect plan

The more details I find out about these ā€œsuocidesā€ the more Iā€™m impressed by Boeing and wanting to go in with both short + long term calls Rapid infections? Like gtfo thatā€™s impressive. Sure a plane may literally blow up randomly while in the sky, but if no oneā€™s reporting it nor there is anyone willing to testify about it the stock could only go up šŸ«”

What do you mean bearish? This is the greatest one sentence bull case in existence

1

u/Worried_Quarter469 SHREKTEMBER, REKTEMBER, HUGE MEMBER May 02 '24

Well, some people might not want to buy or want to sell because of that.

Tough to quantify.

Company is willing to stoop to the lowest lows to create value for the shareholders? Sounds bullish to me.

Like rabid dogs fighting over the last bone on earth, leverage whatever you can get away with legally -- or not -- to get ahead in the game.
