Shares of Boeing (BA) jumped Friday, leading 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Dow Jones Industrial Average gainers, after President Don🍸ald Trump named the plane maker the winner of a contract to build the Air Force's next-generation F-47 fighter jet.

"We recognize the importance of designing, building and delivering a 6th-generation fighter capability for the United States Air Force," Boeing Defense, Space & Security CEO Steve Parker said.
