Boeing's (NYSE:BA) shares dropped about 2% in premarket trade on Tuesday following the International Association of Machinists' decision to call off their strike, which had disrupted almost two months of production. Approved was the most current contract offer, which included a 38% wage raise together with a ratification bonus for retirement savings.

Supported by 59% of voting members, the offer which follows an earlier 35% pay raise that workers had rejected, therefore extending the strike that began on September 13. Acceptance of the union will help strikers return to work as early as Wednesday, with all personnel scheduled to start by November 12.
