On March 10, 2019, Ethiopian Airlines flight ET302 tragically crashed, killing all passengers. The plane was Boeing's relatively new 737 MAX-8. Less than five months earlier a Lion Air flight (also a 737 MAX aircraft) crashed, killing all passengers.
In the wake of the March 10 crash, numerous countries grounded 737 MAX-8 aircraft and the Company is reportedly the subject of investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Transportation Department inspector general, and the FBI.
In response to news of the March 10 crash, the price of Boeing shares fell $47.13, or down over 11%, during the next two trading days to close at $375.41 on March 12, 2019. On March 21, the press disclosed that Boeing had not installed safety upgrades on Lion and Ethiopian Airlines.
"Apart from the tragic loss of human life, Boeing's incredulous failure to install 'safety upgrades' on the 737 MAX that may have prevented the crashes," said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
