Hackers have breached Jones Day and accessed the files of 10 clients, the law firm said on Monday. A prolific cybercriminal group known as Silent took credit for the attack, listing Jones Day among its victims on an extortion website. “Jones Day recently experienced a cyber ‘phishing’ incident in which an unauthorized third party accessed a limited number of dated files for 10 clients,” firm spokesperson Dave Petrou said in a statement. “All impacted clients have been notified.” The firm’s clients have included President Donald Trump. The identities of the affected clients weren’t immediately clear. The hacking group known as Silent specifically targets American law firms, stealing data and extorting them, according to a 2025 FBI alert about the group. The hackers take advantage of the “the highly sensitive nature of legal industry data,” according to the FBI.

Just_Super/E+ via Getty Images I last wrote about Atlas Lithium Company ( ATLX ) on Seeking Alpha on January 7, 2025. I explained in that article why this lithium producer could be an attractive takeover candidate. ATLX shares traded at $7.54 on January 7, 2025, and fell below $4 before the recent recovery. While ATLX remains below the early 2025 price level, I continue to believe the company offers value to a variety of potential suitors. The Japan-U.S. Critical Cooperation Agreement Includes ATLX’s Flagship Project in Brazil On April 2, 2026, Atlas Lithium’s 100%-owned Neves project in Brazil’s Lithium Valley was named in the Joint Fact Sheet for Japan-U.S. Critical Minerals Project Cooperation and is the only Brazil-based lithium project named in the list. The fact sheet spells out that inclusion could be related to Mitsui & Company’s equity interest in the project. The U.S. and Japanese governments are considering financial support for the development of the lithium project in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Daily Chart of ATLX Shares (Barchart) The daily chart of ALTX shares shows they jumped after the April 2 announcement and formed a bullish key reversal. ATLX shares traded in a $4.35 to $4.58 range on April 1 and a $4.28 to $4.70 range on April 2, closing at $4.65, above the April 1 high. A bullish reversal occurs when a stock or asset trades below the prior period’s low and closes above the previous high. Marc Fogassa, CEO and Chairman of Atlas Lithium, said: The inclusion of the Neves Project in the Japan-U.S. Critical Minerals Joint Fact Sheet, with both the U.S. and Japanese governments considering financial support for our project, is a powerful recognition of the strategic value of our assets and the progress that our team has achieved. Together with our strategic partner Mitsui & Co., we remain focused on bringing the Neves Project into production and supplying high-quality lithium concentrate to the global market. We are also proud of working with the local co...

naveen0301/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images I'm sticking with a 'Neutral' opinion of HDFC Bank Limited ( HDB ). HDB's 4QFY2026 (YE March 31) business update was better than what I expected. But its future results might be impacted by the Indian central bank's recent forex restrictions. The firm's lower-than-anticipated loan volumes and favorable margin outlook were detailed in my previous January 13 write-up . Lots To Like About Quarterly Numbers HDB's latest operating performance was disclosed in an announcement published on Saturday, April 4. Its "Loan-to-Deposit Ratio/LDR," "Current Account Savings Account/CASA," and credit demand metrics positively surprised me. My mid-Jan piece indicated that HDB's "elevated (LDR) figure, close to 100%, has limited the bank's lending capacity." I'm encouraged to see this indicator drop by 450bps from 3QFY26's 99.5% to 4QFY26's 95.0%. I think the group's funding profile has gotten better as well. HDB's CASA-related deposits were 12.3% year-on-year and 10.3% sequentially higher at INR10.6T as of March 31, 2026. This drove up its 4QFY2026 CASA ratio by 0.5ppts quarter-on-quarter to 34.1%. My take is that the shift towards a less expensive liability mix will be margin-accretive. Also, advances for HDB rose 4.1% QoQ and 12.1% YoY to INR 29.6T at the end of 4QFY26. This implies an acceleration from the preceding quarter's sequential loan expansion of +2.7%. Looking ahead, I'm bullish about the company's upcoming full-year results release on April 18. According to S&P Capital IQ, the sell-side is projecting a moderation in HDB's normalized net profit growth from +10.5% in FY2025 to +7.6% for FY2026. I believe the analysts are too pessimistic. My forecasts point to an equally strong 10% increase in the bank's bottom-line for the recent fiscal year. The difference lies with "Net Interest Margin" or "NIM." The consensus FY26 NIM estimate is 3.50%, representing a 17bps contraction. My prediction is a superior 3.60%. As mentioned above, ...

Alexandre Tziripouloff/iStock Editorial via Getty Images The stock market remains incredibly choppy as investors are on edge for news about the potential end to the Iran conflict and reprieve from higher oil prices. Investors continue to sell off two categories of stocks: software stocks that are deemed to have negative exposure to AI, and consumer stocks that are being weighed down by weaker spending. Shares of Gap Inc. ( GAP ), the apparel brand, have lost more than ~10% relative to YTD peaks above $28, with the company's recent Q4 earnings print breaking the stock's recent recovery momentum. We have to ask ourselves: I s this correction deserved, or is it a chance to buy the stock on the dip? Data by YCharts I last wrote a "Buy" article on Gap in December, when the stock was trading at $27 per share. Since then, Gap has fallen ~10%. It's true that several risks have picked up, including the deceleration in holiday-quarter comp sales (though we note that industry headwinds also persisted), plus continued negative trends at the company's athleisure brand, Athleta. At the same time, Gap is guiding to decent top-line growth amid a tough macro in 2026, coupled on top of a recent dividend increase and appealing valuation. I reiterate my "Buy" rating here. In my view, these are the core reasons to be long on Gap: Gap's core brands are newly resonating with consumers, especially on value. Gap has achieved positive comp sales in the Gap and Old Navy brands, which comprise the bulk of the company's sales. Amid a tough macro, we've seen multiple retailers emphasize their basics and value offerings, and Gap's long-standing orientation around good value clothing will give the company an edge in 2026. Operational tightening. Gap is long beyond the point of desiring to "grow at all costs." The company has been shrinking its store footprint (in the most recent fiscal year, which ended in January, the company closed 32 net stores, most of which were standalone Banana Republic loc...

(PRO Views are exclusive to PRO subscribers, giving them insight on the news of the day direct from a real investing pro. See the full discussion above.) While traders are set to continue focusing on the U.S.-Iran war, New York Stock Exchange insider Jay Woods is watching two key companies reporting earnings on Wednesday. Delta Air Lines will deliver results before the bell, though Woods isn't expecting the report to change his outlook on the stock, which he said is trading in "no man's land." Instead, he's looking at what the company's guidance will look like now with jet fuel prices surging due to the U.S.-Iran war. "They had good reports in March, saying revenues are expected to beat, let's see how they guide going forward with the crisis going on," he said. Woods is also watching Constellation Brands , which he says has a good turnaround story. The stock fell more than 50% from its 2024 highs but is up nearly 20% from its November lows. If the report disappoints, Woods said to watch levels between $149 to $145 for support. However, if it beats, the stock could rally to $167.50, which would put Constellation at levels it hasn't traded at since August. Shares traded around $153 on Monday. STZ YTD mountain STZ year to date On Iran, Woods said traders are on alert after President Donald Trump posted on social media that Iran would be "living in hell" if the country refuses to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. He then posted, without additional context, "Tuesday, 8:00 P.M. Eastern Time!" "We'll see if that Tuesday ultimatum of 8 p.m. is a veiled threat, something more that traders have to keep an eye on, or the ultimate ' TACO ' Tuesday trade," Woods, chief market strategist at Freedom Capital Markets, said. Later in the week, the Personal Consumption Expenditures price index for February will be released on Thursday, while the Consumer Price Index for March will come out on Friday. While the former is the preferred inflation gauge by the Federal Reserve, the latter will ...
