The airlines, while inspecting their grounded 737-MAX9 fleets, have reported finding loose bolts (United) and 'parts' (Alaska). Fortunately these are easily fixed by the maintenance crews. But it does lead you to ask WTF?! is going on at Boeing and the other company that is outfitting these planes!

No report on what other airlines are finding. But clearly Boeing's inspections are failing bigly.

Boeing stock lost 8% of its value Monday and more on Tuesday, unspecified in the article.

... parts

that's a worryingly nonspecific term
