Spirit Aerosystems MACD Death Cross and Bearish Marubozu Triggered on 15-Minute Chart

The 15-minute chart for Spirit Aerosystems has recently triggered a MACD Death Cross and a Bearish Marubozu pattern at 10:30 AM on October 16, 2025. This indicates that the stock price may continue to decline, as sellers are currently in control of the market. Furthermore, the bearish momentum is likely to persist.

The European Commission has approved Boeing's acquisition of Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. (Spirit), subject to certain conditions, according to a EuropeanSting article.

The Commission initially had concerns that the acquisition could significantly reduce competition in the global markets for aerostructures and large commercial aircraft. Spirit primarily manufactures aerostructures for large commercial aircraft, used as inputs by companies like Boeing and Airbus SE.

To address these concerns, Boeing offered to divest Spirit’s businesses that currently supply Airbus with aerostructures, including all necessary assets and personnel, to Airbus. Additionally, Boeing agreed to sell Spirit’s site in Malaysia to Composites Technology Research Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (CTRM).

These structural commitments fully address the Commission’s competition concerns. They will enable Airbus to integrate Spirit’s businesses into its own operations, securing its supply chain, and allow a new competitive force, CTRM, to enter the market for aerostructures.

The decision is conditional upon full compliance with the commitments. An independent trustee will monitor their implementation under the supervision of the Commission.

Boeing, headquartered in the US, designs, manufactures, and sells commercial aircraft, defense, space, and security systems globally. Spirit, also headquartered in the US, manufactures aerostructures for commercial and military aircraft, as well as business jets.

Airbus, headquartered in the Netherlands with its main operational office in France, is a leading global aerospace company. CTRM, headquartered in Malaysia, supplies advanced aerospace composites to global aerospace suppliers.

The transaction was notified to the Commission on 26 August 2025. The Commission has 25 working days to decide on Phase I approval or initiate an in-depth investigation. If commitments are proposed, the Commission has an additional 10 working days, bringing the total duration to 35 working days.

Boeing’s acquisition of Spirit AeroSystems is a significant regulatory milestone. The approval comes after Boeing agreed to divest certain Spirit operations to address competition concerns. The deal now awaits final clearance in the United States, according to Aviation A2Z.
