BA <excerpted with my bolding> One day up, the next day down, that is pretty much par for the course over the past few weeks. Yesterday was a repeat of that dynamic largely because the very stocks that had been so strong over the past two weeks - namely industrial giants - came under aggressive selling pressure. The two biggest culprits were Boeing (BA) and United Technologies (UTX). The Boeing earnings are actually very interesting because that firm is one of the few major issues that includes stock option compensation for executives within earnings. When that compensation is factored out of yesterday number, the firm would have actually exceeded Wall Street estimates for the quarter. While this may seem anecdotal consider the fact that stock option compensation accounted for almost 12-cents per share in earnings. Imagine what the bottom lines at other firms would look like if they choose to account for such compensation the Boeing way? This gives us a glimpse of just how expensive stocks really have become relative to legitimate earnings. decisionpoint.com
