6、Our View on 2019 CommercialCommercial OEOE:VisibilityVisibility remainsremains goodgood.Overall,we remain constructive on OE-driven names,though we are more mindful of slowing traffic growth amid a more fragile macroeconomic outlook.That said,slowing traffic typically impacts aftermarket before OE.T
7、herefore,we favor names with higher OE mix,and particularly those with higher OE profit mix.Multi-year backlogs remain intact,and order activity is still robust which should insulate production rates and cash flows from any brief,economic slowdown in 2019 or 2020.However,a more severe economic corre
8、ction would be expected to pressure multiples even as EPS/FCFs largely hold up(as in 2008/09).Our top pick is Boeing,which benefits from both the macro backdrop described above(2018 b:b of 1.1x)with further support from a compelling micro(rising margins/strong CFs)story,and a shareholder-friendly ca

10、ally if traffic growth slows enough to pressure aftermarket volume growth.That said,we still expect strong results in H119 driven by the continued release of pent-up maintenance demand.However,this tailwind could wane over the course of the year,compounded by lower growth in the addressable market.W
11、e expect the number of planes coming off of warranties to expand at a slower rate,while retirements will likely pick up to compensate for a hiatus in 2018,taking aircraft out of the addressable market.BizjetBizjet:StableStable atat higherhigher ratesrates.We expect deliveries to accelerate in 2019,l

28、cyclical weakness,both relative to history and to its suppliers.Its multi-year backlog should allow the company to maintain production rates,while its push into services mitigates cyclical exposure,though BGS is not yet large enough to fully offset.Meanwhile,BAs PFS initiatives are slowly allowing t
29、he company to gain leverage and capture a greater degree of aftermarket revenue.Deliveries proved remarkably resilient through the last downturn,though production rates are higher today,so some risk is present.Still,importantly,we note that the sharp 80%share pullback in 2007-2009 was due in part to
30、 the manufacturing meltdown on the 787.These issues were ongoing to some extent before the Great Recession hit,and we attribute at least 6.5 turns of multiple compression to the turmoil(see previous slide).Excluding that impact,Boeing has suffered an average 11.2 turns of multiple compression in the
