Monday, April 9, 2019 -- T+97, Part 5 -- Market On Sale!

Saudi order book: now in excess of $100 billion. Prince Salman kicking himself -- why didn't I think of this ten years ago when interest rates were 0% and falling. LOL. What was that law of Sharia?

Sharia prohibits riba, or usury, defined as interest paid on all loans of money (although some Muslims dispute whether there is a consensus that interest is equivalent to riba).

Day 97, the list of accomplishments from the 115th US Congress:

AAPL: on a day the market falls 200 points, AAPL is one of the few to surge -- up another $1.53/share. Whoo-hoo! In fact, AAPL and DIS are the only two of the thirty showing green.

• BA: down another $4, trading at $370
• TSLA: flat at $273

Edwards Lifesciences: also up a dollar. 

Boeing: no 737 sales in March. Delivered fewer MAX jets last month.  Pundits way smarter than I suggest Boeing will weather this just fine. I'm not so sure. Commercially, the 737 was their future. Airbus has huge opening.
