chrisdorney/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Walmart ( WMT ) is moving back into the spotlight with a new movie‑inspired fashion drop. The retail giant is unveiling a Scoop capsule collection tied to The Devil Wears Prada . The limited-time capsule collection, which aims to channel the film’s high‑gloss New York editorial aesthetic into wearable, budget-friendly pieces, debuts on April 20. The line features tailored blazers, matching suit pants, structured dresses, red pumps, and statement belts. The line is being positioned as a statement that Walmart intends to compete more directly on style, not just on everyday low prices. Over the past few years, Walmart ( WMT ) has steadily upgraded its apparel offerings, leaning on private brands like Scoop, Free Assembly, and Sofia Jeans to offer more modern silhouettes, on‑trend fabrics, and curated outfits that resemble what shoppers might expect from department stores or specialty chains rather than a traditional big‑box player. The Devil Wears Prada is a classic 2006 American comedy‑drama film based on Lauren Weisberger’s novel. The movie follows Andy Sachs (played by Anne Hathaway), a young aspiring journalist who takes an assistant job at the prestigious fashion magazine Runway and finds herself working for formidable editor Miranda Priestly (played by Meryl Streep), discovering the pressures and temptations of the high-fashion world. The upcoming sequel, The Devil Wears Prada 2 , is scheduled to debut on May 1. More on Walmart Walmart Inc. (WMT) Presents at J.P.

Mirrorimage-NL/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images The U.S. Army awarded Boeing ( BA ) a $324 million contract for six additional CH-47F Block II Chinook helicopters, expanding its existing order as part of a broader effort to accelerate delivery of key equipment. The latest award brings the total number of CH-47F Block II aircraft under contract to 24. The agreement follows earlier orders placed last year, including the first tied to the Army’s rapid fielding initiative aimed at speeding deployment timelines. Boeing ( BA ) has already delivered six of the upgraded Chinook helicopters. The Army plans to equip its first operational unit with the aircraft by mid-2028, following additional deliveries tied to earlier production lots. The CH-47F Block II is an updated version of the long-serving Chinook platform, designed primarily for heavy-lift transport and logistics missions. The aircraft includes structural and mechanical changes that increase its maximum weight capacity, allowing it to carry heavier loads. Other modifications include adjustments to the fuel system that extend operating range, as well as design changes intended to simplify maintenance and allow for future upgrades. The Chinook has been a central component of the Army’s rotorcraft fleet for decades, supporting cargo transport and resupply missions in a range of operating environments. More on Boeing Boeing Vs.

krblokhin/iStock Editorial via Getty Images MO stock: Wall Street likes it now I last analyzed Altria Group (NYSE: MO ) on Feb 13, 2026 with an article titled “Altria Fits 10xEBT Rule Better Than British American Tobacco”. The article served as a review of MO’s FQ4 2025 earning report (ER) and rated it as a strong buy. Since then, a few new catalysts have emerged and this follow-up article will detail my thoughts on two of them: the sentiment changes from Wall Street and also the company’s upcoming ER for FQ1 2026. Let me start with the sentiment change. As you can see from the screenshot below, Wall Street analysts, after feeling lukewarm about the stock for years, have recently changed its rating to buy. More specifically, MO now receives an average rating of 3.5 from a total of 14 Wall Street analysts, putting the stock squarely in the buy category. Out of the 14 analysts who rated the stock in the past 90 days, 5 of them issued a strong buy rating and only 2 issued a sell/strong sell rating. Against this background, next I will explain why, as a contrarian investor, I find myself in agreement with Wall Street’s current bullish sentiment. I believe the Street’s earlier hold rating is overly pessimistic by focusing too much on the downside and largely ignoring the upside potential. Seeking Alpha MO stock: FQ1 earnings and growth outlook As aforementioned, the second catalyst that motivated this Altria revisit is its upcoming FQ1 2026 ER. It is scheduled to be announced on 4/30/2026 before the market opens as shown below. Latest Wall Street consensus points to a Normalized EPS Estimate of $1.25, which reflects a year-over-year growth of 1.6% (vs. $1.23 in FQ1 2025). The revenue estimate is projected to be $4.58B, indicating a 1.3% YOY increase compared to the same quarter last year. Seeking Alpha Looking further ahead, Altria is expected to maintain a slightly faster, but quite steady, earnings growth trajectory with a 2.0% Compound Annual Growth Rate ( CAGR ) in t...

⚽ Champions League news; 8pm BST kick-off ( first leg: 1-0 ) ⚽ Bayern v Real Madrid – updates | Live scores | Mail Simon Hello world! This is Arsenal’s 12th Champions League game of the season, and they’ve won 10 and drawn one of the previous 11. Europe is their happy place, and this the only competition in which they’ve played and not lost over the last month, in which time they’ve been dumped out of the FA Cup by Southampton, lost a League Cup final to Manchester City, been turned over at home by Bournemouth and generally allowed the wheels to come very much and emphatically off. Tonight, nursing a 1-0 lead from the first leg, they can and indeed need to give themselves a much-needed morale boost ahead of Sunday’s Premier League enormoclash at the Etihad. A few happy omens for Arsenal: The record of English clubs in two-legged Champions League ties against Portuguese opponents is jolly good – 10 wins on the spin since Benfica upset Liverpool in 2005-06. The record of English clubs in Champions League or European Cup quarter-finals against Portuguese opponents is even better: played nine, won nine. Sporting haven’t won a competitive match in England in 10 attempts since they beat Middlesbrough 3-2 in the 2004-05 Uefa Cup. Thinking about football these days. There was a dramatic pause when Mikel Arteta was asked what he wants from the Arsenal supporters against Sporting on Wednesday evening in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final. After his attempts to rouse them before the early kick-off against Bournemouth at the weekend by telling them to “bring your lunch” backfired spectacularly with a costly home defeat that ended with some fans booing the Premier League leaders off the pitch, this time the message was more considered.

⚽ Champions League news; 8pm BST kick-off ( first leg: 2-1 ) ⚽ Arsenal v Sporting – updates | Live scores | Mail Michael It doesn’t get a lot bigger or better than this . The outright favourites this season (Bayern) against the most successful European side of all time (Real). A mouthwatering quarter-final between two gigantic behemoths to see who will face the reigning champions (PSG) in the semi-final. Double woof. The quarter-finals might just be the best part of the Champions League – close enough to the final to get excited of glory but far enough from the tournament climax to still have any number of unknowns and permutations, the games come thick and fast (you can also follow Arsenal v Sporting tonight right here ) and there is just a solitary goal separating Bayern and Real Madrid in this tie, with the Germans earning a 2-1 first-leg victory last week at the Bernabéu. Yes, it was a stunning result for Vincent Kompany’s side but Bayern might be frustrated their advantage is not bigger. One thing is for sure, you never, ever count out Real Madrid in this competition. It seems like they’re going to win the Bundesliga, which obviously hurts me considering my brother is at Dortmund, and I was a player there,” Bellingham replied. “Again, it depends on what he does with England, and hopefully, we can try and stop them from winning the Champions League tomorrow, which will obviously have a big effect. He’s a sensational player. It’s a pleasure to play with him with the national team. I think he’s amazing. He’s showing everyone the last two or three years he’s reached a level where he’s almost perfected his craft in terms of what he can do as a striker.” Continue reading...

creisinger/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Indian and U.S. firms have moved closer to a landmark agreement to jointly build jet engines, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi pushes to upgrade the country’s air force and expand domestic weapons production. Ohio-based GE Aerospace ( GE ) and state-run Hindustan Aeronautics Limited said Tuesday they have finalized key technical terms for the co-production of F414 engines, bringing a long-gestating project nearer to execution. Discussions between the two sides have stretched roughly three years. The arrangement includes sharing manufacturing know-how with India, with a formal contract expected to follow. New Delhi has also explored similar partnerships with companies in France, Japan and the United Kingdom as it looks to deepen its domestic industrial base. Both companies said the agreement builds on a decades-long relationship and represents a step toward closer economic and defense ties between India and the United States. The F414 engines are slated to power India’s next-generation, domestically produced fighter jets. The country aims to field roughly 120 to 130 of these aircraft to replace aging Russian-origin fleets. The engine model has been in service with the U.S. Navy for more than three decades. The initiative supports Modi’s broader effort to strengthen military readiness and address a shrinking number of operational fighter squadrons, a key concern given ongoing tensions with Pakistan and China. India’s air capabilities came under scrutiny following clashes with Pakistan last year, when Islamabad said its Chinese-built J-10C aircraft downed multiple Indian jets. Momentum for the co-production effort dates back to 2023, when then-President Joe Biden and Modi agreed to expand cooperation on advanced defense systems, including jet engines, as well as emerging technologies such as semiconductors and quantum computing.

In this article TSLA Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Tesla cars charge at a Tesla Supercharger station in Pasadena, California, March 30, 2026. Justin Sullivan | Getty Images Tesla stock rose more than 6% on Wednesday after UBS analysts upgraded their rating on the stock from sell to hold, and increased their price target by about a dollar to $352. Flipping from a previously bearish outlook, UBS analysts led by Joseph Spak wrote in their upgrade note out Tuesday that news Tesla is working on a new, smaller SUV is a "welcome development," given the firm's view that Tesla's current light-duty vehicle offerings are "too limited." The company's lineup currently includes its Model 3 sedan, Model Y SUV and angular steel Cybertruck. The company has stopped selling its flagship Model S and X vehicles in order to transition part of its Fremont, California factory to produce its humanoid robot, Optimus, now in development. The rising share price also comes after Tesla launched the Spring update for its in-vehicle software, including features that make it easier for customers to subscribe to the company's premium, Full Self Driving (Supervised) option, and to view statistics in their touchscreens about how often they are using its features.

brainmaster/iStock via Getty Images MeiraGTx Overview With MeiraGTx Holdings plc’s ( MGTX ) stock up 50% in the past month, I wanted to see what the "fuss" is all about. Although this is a name I am familiar with, I have yet to do a formal evaluation. MeiraGTx describes themselves as a “clinical-stage genetic medicine company committed to harnessing the full potential of genetic therapies for both rare and prevalent diseases.” MeiraGTx does things a bit differently than, say, other gene therapy companies, like CRISPR Therapeutics ( CRSP ). MeiraGTx uses riboswitch gene regulation to allow for precise, dose-responsive control of gene expression using an oral small-molecule inducer. MeiraGTx is also unique in that it is “vertically integrated.” That is, it does not rely on contract manufacturing organizations (like many of its peers in biotech). Its pipeline is ambitious—targeting both rare (i.e., ALS) and common diseases (i.e., radiation-induced xerostomia, Parkinson's). Ahead of Phase 1 data for AAV-hAQP1 for radiation-induced xerostomia ( expected on April 16), MeiraGTx’s stock has reached 52-week highs, now valued at nearly $1B (market capitalization). Data by YCharts Below, I take a look at the market opportunity in radiation-induced xerostomia, as well as other upcoming catalysts. Radiation-Induced Xerostomia The market for radiation-induced xerostomia is a bit tricky, which probably explains why the company went out of its way to say it will also “include a section on the drug’s commercial opportunity.” The Phase 1 study is an open-label, non-randomized, dose-escalation trial that enrolled 24 patients to primarily evaluate AAV-hAQP1’s safety. It delivers a single dose of AAV-hAQP1 into one or both parotid glands and observes the patients over years. AAV-hAQP1 has since advanced into a Phase 2 trial. MeiraGTx revealed positive Phase 1 data in December 2022, which I have summarized in the table below. Source: Company Press Release (Author's Compilation) Following...

Iran Used Chinese Spy Satellite To Target US Bases During War, Outraged Beijing Denies Iran quietly secured a Chinese spy satellite in late 2024 and used it to track US military bases across the Middle East during the current war , the Financial Times has newly - an allegation Beijing has flatly and angrily denied. The TEE-01B satellite, built and launched by Chinese firm Earth Eye Co, was allegedly taken over by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' (IRGC) Aerospace Force after launch from China , according to the report, which cites leaked Iranian military documents. Of course, the usual caveats must apply when it comes to major Western MSM reporting on an emerging 'axis of evil' doing all things anti-America: Russia, China, Iran (and certainly South Korea could soon be thrown in the mix given its pro-Moscow role in the Ukraine war). "Recently, some forces have been keen on fabricating rumors and maliciously associating them to China ," according to the official statement from the Chinese Foreign Ministry. In the meantime, Earth Eye Co has not commented. Further, the Chinese embassy in Washington told the Financial Times : "We firmly oppose relevant parties spreading speculative and insinuative disinformation against China." But we should note that this wasn't exactly a full-on denial of the charge, and the embassy would likely not have a full picture of what the highest echelons of Chinese intelligence is up to at any given moment in Beijing. Per the FT report, Iranian commanders tasked the satellite with monitoring key US military sites, using time-stamped coordinate lists, satellite imagery, and orbital analysis. The Financial Times said the images were captured in March, before and after drone and missile strikes on those locations. As part of the arrangement, the IRGC gained access to commercial ground stations run by Emposat, a Beijing-based satellite control and data provider with a network spanning Asia, Latin America, and beyond. One surprising developme...
