Notwithstanding the existence of “significant headwinds” such as terrorism, the rise of populism and continued stagnation of trade and cargo markets, Boeing’s 2017 current market outlook (CMO) shows a demand for 41,030 airplane deliveries worth more than $6 trillion over the next 20 years. The forecast differs little from last year’s CMO, despite wide variations in economic growth, volatile exchange rates and increased geopolitical uncertainty.
