Boeing shares rose 1.2% in premarket trading following comments by US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent that China is poised to place a major aircraft order this week during President Trump's visit to Beijing.

Bessent said the anticipated announcement is part of broader US-China discussions set to include energy product sales, agricultural goods purchases and potential Chinese investment in non-strategic, non-sensitive sectors of the US economy.

Chinese airlines constitute one of Boeing's largest international markets, with past sizable orders from the country contributing substantially to the company's commercial aircraft sales and overall revenue growth.
