Air China Turns to Airbus Despite Trump's Boeing Deal

China's national airline Air China and its subsidiary Shenzhen Airlines have signed an agreement with European aircraft manufacturer Airbus to purchase a total of 55 passenger aircraft. The total list price of the deal was announced as $12.4 billion. This order draws attention as it comes immediately after US President Donald Trump's announcement in May regarding a deal with Boeing. Trump had previously stated that Boeing would sell to China. Air China's preference for Airbus is interpreted as a reflection of global trade tensions on the aviation sector. Chinese airlines have continued to place large orders recently as part of fleet renewal and expansion efforts. According to the details of the order, which Airbus models Air China and Shenzhen Airlines will purchase has not yet been clarified. However, this large-scale agreement is significant for strengthening Airbus's power in the Asian market. This is not investment advice.

📊 BA — Piyasa Yorumu

▼ down · 65%

The news indicates that Air China, a major customer of Boeing, is turning to Airbus, which signals negative demand for BA shares. Technical indicators also confirm weakness: the RSI is near oversold territory at 35, the MACD is below the signal line, and the price is trading below both the 20-day and 50-day moving averages. The 0.69% decline in the last close further suggests continued selling pressure. In the short term, downward movement can be expected due to this negative news and technical outlook.
