Shares of Boeing Co. rallied 1.4%, which is currently enough to keep the Dow Jones Industrial Average from a triple digit loss, at least for now. The stock’s price gain of $5.08 in afternoon trade would add about 35 points to the Dow, which is a price-weighted index, while the Dow is down 82 points. Boeing’s stock rally comes after the aerospace and defense giant said it reached a deal with President Trump to build a new Air Force One.
