SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates

NEW YORK, July 12, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pomerantz Grossman Hufford Dahlstrom & Gross LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of The Boeing Company ("Boeing " or the "Company") who purchased Boeing common stock between January 1, 2013  and July 12, 2013 (the "Class Period"). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 888-476-6529, ext. 237.

The investigation concerns whether Boeing and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

On July 12, 2013, a fire aboard an empty 787 at Heathrow Airport in London broke out more than 8 hours after the plane landed. The cause of the fire remained under investigation. Also today, an unspecified mechanical issue caused another 787 flown by Thomson Airways to return to Manchester Airport, adding to concerns about the plane.  On this news, the shares of Boeing fell $5.01 or 4.7 % percent to close at $101.87 on July 12, 2013.
