By Todd Shriber, InvestorPlace Contributor

Predictably, much of the near-term bull case for Boeing stock, revolves around the company's ability to get the 737 MAX kinks worked out and get the jet back in the skies. On Wall Street, the consensus expectation is that the 737 MAX could be airborne again before the end of this year, though some doubter put that timeline into 2020.

Of course, there's much more to the story than that and investors should not caught up in something as superficial as an automotive test.

Described by some as flamboyant, Ma departs the $460 billion behemoth he founded on Tuesday. He will be succeeded by a softer spoken, accountant by trade Daniel Zhang. On the surface, the Ma-to-Zhange transition looks a little bit like the move to Tim Cook at Apple after Jobs passed away. Alibaba stock investors can only hope Zhang can deliver appreciation that is even in the ballpark of what Cook has delivered for Apple investors.

By Todd Shriber, InvestorPlace Contributor

Monday was a lethargic day, reminiscent of many during the summer months, but the S&P 500 entered the day just 1.80% below its all-time high and growth sectors, such as consumer discretionary and technology, were about 2% removed from records, so it wasn't surprising to see modest dips today.
