The consensus rating on GE Aerospace is a StrongBuy, signaling that most covering analysts see the name as a continued winner in the aerospace sector. That positive stance reflects confidence in the company’s earnings power and free cash flow as a standalone aerospace and defense powerhouse.
Kristine Liwag of Morgan Stanley initiated coverage on GE with a Buy rating and a price target of $425, implying meaningful upside from current levels. She argues that durable services growth, strong pricing power, and a pristine balance sheet should drive cash flow “at full throttle” over the coming decade.
Liwag views GE Aerospace as a best-in-class franchise with a deep competitive moat in a long-cycle industry marked by high barriers to entry. She believes consensus still underestimates long-term earnings and free cash flow, with additional upside potential from future earnings revisions and valuation multiple expansion.
