Is This Stock Setting Up As THE Trade Of 2023?

There were times over the past few years that I wondered if Boeing (BA) would ever recover from its own miscues and the COVID-19 pandemic. Well, BA and its peer group, aerospace ($DJUSAS), were literally "flying" into the end of 2022. Check out this chart:

If you've been wondering how the S&P 500 has held up above the October low with all the weakness seen in areas like technology (XLK), consumer discretionary (XLY), and communication services (XLC) over the past two months, it's because the money rotating out of these three sectors isn't leaving the stock market. It's rotating!

Previously beaten-down areas like aerospace are suddenly soaring as tech money finds a new home in other stock market areas. This is critical to ending cyclical bear markets. Instead of pure distribution, we're seeing rotation. As technicians, we need to pay attention to where the money is going. Right now, investors and traders are seeing a TON of value in aerospace and in individual stocks like BA.

There's another HUGE potential catalyst for BA in 2023. I believe BA will reinstitute their quarterly dividend in 2023, or at least there'll be more discussion about that possibility. BA hasn't paid a dividend since the pandemic began, but prior to that was a steady dividend grower. If you throw in improving fundamentals with a return of its quarterly dividend, along with the already-improving technical outlook, BA could be poised to carry aerospace to BIG gains in 2023.
