Goldman (GS) Likes (ERJ) (PCP) (BA) (BEAV) (UTX) (GE) in Aerospace

Citing demand from China, Goldman Sachs said they like the Aerospace sector and named their favorite public companies in the space as Embraer SA (NYSE: ERJ), Precision Castparts Corp. (NYSE: PCP), Boeing Co. (NYSE: BA), BE Aerospace Inc. (NASDAQ: BEAV), United Technologies (NYSE: UTX) and General Electric (NYSE: GE).

Goldman mentioned they had underestimated the growing civil aerospace industry in China, saying, "We believe China will deliver its first narrow body aircraft in 5-8 years, and its first domestically produced aero engine and its first wide body aircraft in 10-20 years. This is a longer-term concern for Western air-framers and their suppliers but is an issue they are considering now."

China now accounts for about 15 percent of the annual deliveries of large aircraft from manufacturers Boeing and Airbus. This is estimated to grow to 20 percent over the next couple of decades, as China is looking to acquire about 4,00 new large commercial planes during that time.

The growing middle class in China is the fuel behind the growing travel demand.

Other companies mentioned by Goldman that they like are Safran, MTU, Cathay Pacific, China Eastern, and Shanghai International Airport.
