On September 14, GE Aerospace declined 3.14% in regular trading, trading at $314.39 per share, with turnover of $247 million. The stock has extended its post-announcement slide following the company's September 8 agreement to acquire Consolidated Precision Products (CPP) for $11.75 billion — its largest deal since becoming an independent public company.

The transaction, to be financed with $7 billion in cash and the remainder through new debt, acquires CPP from Warburg Pincus and Berkshire Partners. CPP manufactures precision superalloy, titanium, and aluminum castings across more than 20 facilities with approximately 6,600 employees, serving commercial aerospace, defense, and industrial gas turbine markets. While management expects the deal to be accretive to adjusted EPS and free cash flow in the first year, the stock has declined roughly 4% over the past five sessions as investors weigh integration risks and the incremental leverage. The deal is expected to close in H2 of 2027, subject to regulatory approval.

Within the Aerospace & Defense sector, performance was mixed. Among individual stocks, Northrop Grumman up 2.49%, L3Harris Technologies up 1.57%, Honeywell Aerospace up 1.26%, Rocket Lab USA down 0.14%, Boeing down 0.57%.
