Boeing Jumps 4.5% as Strait of Hormuz Peace Deal Eases Jet Fuel Cost Pressure on Airlines

Boeing shares climbed 4.5% after a U.S.-Iran agreement raised hopes that the Strait of Hormuz will reopen, easing fears of prolonged elevated jet fuel costs for airlines. Lower oil prices improve the profitability outlook for carriers, which analysts say increases the likelihood of advanced aircraft orders and on-schedule deliveries. The move follows Boeing's report of a 33% jump in May aircraft deliveries, signaling a broader production recovery for the aerospace giant.
