A U.S. trade court ruled that Boeing Co.’s commercial jet business may have been harmed by sales of passenger planes by Bombardier Inc. at less than fair value. The court decision allows Boeing to continue pressing for tariffs against its Canadian competitor.
The U.S. International Trade Commission ruled Friday that there’s reasonable indication that Boeing’s business may have been hurt or threatened by Bombardier sales in the U.S. of its C Series jets.
