Do you think China ordered 200 jets from Boeing?

Trump has been claiming that China will order 200 jets from Boeing and I think it is just more Trump BS. One of the things that makes me think that - is after Trump said they will order 200 jets he added - they will order another 750 jets from Boeing if they do a good job on the first 200. Cheers and happy weekend!

According to Boeing's website they have over 6800 jet orders in process. I don't know if an order of only 200 from China is really good news.

They might do so. But this Reuters article puts the number in context.

Boeing shares drop 4% after Trump announces China orders just 200 jets
⦿ Boeing shares fall more than 4%
⦿ Sources said Trump, Beijing had discussed 500 jets
⦿ China's last major Boeing order was in 2017
⦿ Airbus has outpaced Boeing in Chinese deliveries since 2018

When it comes to Donald, there no such thing as truth.

Shocking as it may be, Boeing did not add any orders. Not a peep about it in the home paper, the Seattle Times.

@Northwest I think the the president of China will publiclly state that he didn't discuss ordering jets with Trump. Cheers and happy weekend!

As of this morning, no formal annoucements were made by China. I don't know what will happen.
