A Mandalorian's take on today's pre-market movers: Boeing soars, Domino's dips, and Eli Lilly feels the Force of competition.

Boeing's Back Baby. This is the Way?

Alright alright settle down. Word on the street (or you know the HoloNet) is Boeing's catching some tailwind. Seems like some number crunchers over at Bernstein think they're gonna pull out of their dive ever since that Alaska Airlines fiasco. I heard whispers about some faulty hyperdrive...wait wrong universe. Anyway apparently those 737 Max crashes are old news now. Well mostly. Still wouldn't catch me dead in one but hey who am I to judge? Maybe they hired a Ugnaught mechanic. Those guys are alright if a little greasy.

Progressive Gets a Reprieve: I Have Spoken

Now Progressive the insurance slingers are seeing a little love after a Bank of America upgrade. Apparently they got slapped with a downgrade earlier this month but strong March numbers brought them back into the light. Down 8%? That's a lot of Beskar to lose especially in this economy I have spoken. Still gotta be careful with these things remember the broker on Navarro who promised me a great deal on my ship's insurance? He got carbonite frozen real quick when I found out he was skimming credits.

Domino's Delivered... Slightly Less: I Can Bring You In Warm or I Can Bring You In Cold

Domino's on the other hand seems to have underdelivered. Missed revenue targets they earned $4.33 per share but were expected to earn $4.07 per share while analysts polled by LSEG expected earnings of $4.07 per share on revenue of $1.13 billion. Revenue was $1.11 billion. Almost a 3% drop in shares. Listen I've had worse meals on the Razor Crest but still those results are a no go. I mean I prefer bone broth but even I know you gotta deliver on those promises. I can bring you in warm or I can bring you in cold. Your choice Domino's.

On Holding Runs Faster: Proof Pudding

On Holding the athletic shoe fellas apparently got a boost from Citi. Said they can handle the market better than most and can even pass down cost increases if they need to. Well if their shoes are as good as they say maybe I'll ditch these Beskar boots for a marathon. Only problem is they may be more expensive. We'll see Proof Pudding

Eli Lilly's Weight Loss Hopes Take a Hit: This is No Longer a Negotiation

HSBC isn't feeling the love for Eli Lilly. Downgraded them said their high price tag makes them risky and that everyone's overhyping their weight loss drug. Too much competition they say. Sounds like the cantina on Tatooine. Always a new snake oil salesman peddling some miracle cure. This is no longer a negotiation Eli Lilly. Time to show us what you're really made of.

The Wrap Up: This is the Way... To Be Cautious

So there you have it. The market's a messy business just like bounty hunting. One day you're soaring through hyperspace the next you're stuck in a mud pit on Arvala 7. Remember always do your research trust your gut and never ever trust a Jawa with your hard earned credits. This is the way… to be cautious at least.
