Mythos has laid bare thousands of vulnerabilities in commonly used applications for which no patch or fix exists, prompting the San Francisco-based AI startup to form an alliance with cybersecurity specialists to bolster defenses against hacking and withhold wide distribution.

Shares in FTAI Aviation (NASDAQ: FTAI) soared by 14.4% on the open today, only to settle back to a 9% gain by 12 p.m. The move comes after a ceasefire agreement between the U.S and Iran led to a significant decline in the price of oil amid hopes that the conflict was on track for a definitive resolution that would reduce risk to the global economy. The company's exposure comes from two main areas. First, the company is a leading player in servicing narrow-body aircraft engines. Higher oil prices feed through into higher jet fuel prices (particularly when some refineries in parts of the world can't even obtain crude oil), and that's bad news for the commercial aerospace industry. In addition, the Gulf region is a major transportation hub in its own right. All of which means that a higher oil price is likely to lead to fewer flight departures and, ultimately, less need for servicing aircraft engines, Continue reading

In this article MSFT Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT The Microsoft store is pictured in Manhattan on March 31, 2026, in New York City. Zamek | View Press | Corbis News | Getty Images A longtime Microsoft executive leading the software company's development tools group, Julia Liuson, told employees that she will retire in June and become an advisor. Liuson joined Microsoft in 1992, the same year as CEO Satya Nadella. "We will continue building on the progress already underway to flatten teams, operate AI-first and reduce toil," she wrote in a memo. Her departure comes as Microsoft, the world's largest software maker, faces mounting competition from startups such as Cursor with products that rely on generative artificial intelligence models to help developers write code. Building on relationships with AI model builders Anthropic and OpenAI, while also striving to formulate models in house, Microsoft is working to make AI a key part of its toolchain that third-party developers can use to create applications and websites. Cursor's annualized revenue exceeded $2 billion in February, Bloomberg reported. Nadella said in January that 4.7 million people were paying for its GitHub Copilot AI development service, up 75% year over year. Liuson has been president of Microsoft's developer division since 2021, according to her LinkedIn profile . She has reported to Jay Parikh, a former Meta executive who came to Microsoft in 2024. Last year, Nadella said Liuson's team would be part of Parikh's new CoreAI platform and tools group. In August, Thomas Dohmke, CEO of GitHub, which Microsoft acquired in 2018 for $7.5 billion, announced plans to leave. At the time, Parikh told employees that three GitHub executives would report to Liuson. Liuson said in a memo to employees on Wednesday that she will collaborate with Parikh on organizational changes. Liuson did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Microsoft did not immediately have a comment. Parikh said in hi...

⚽ Champions League updates from the 8pm BST kick-off ⚽ Barcelona v Atlético Madrid – live | Latest scores Arne Slot has warned Liverpool will suffer another emphatic defeat should they switch off against Paris Saint-Germain in their Champions League quarter-final first leg on Wednesday evening but believes his toiling team can save their season by going “toe-to-toe” with the European champions. The pressure on Liverpool and their head coach has intensified following Saturday’s 4-0 capitulation against Manchester City in the quarter-final of the FA Cup. Florian Wirtz disagreed with the captain Virgil van Dijk’s damning assessment that Liverpool “ gave up ” at the Etihad Stadium, but both the £116m playmaker and Slot admitted there can be no repeat of that performance at Parc des Princes.

Sarah Kerver/Getty Images Entertainment Chegg ( CHGG ) soared 21% after a shareholder called for the company to separate its business units. Galloway Capital, which has a 5.44% stake in Chegg, wants the company to separate its skilling segment from its legacy academic services business, the holder said in a letter sent to Chegg on Wednesday. "We believe the most effective path to unlocking shareholder value is as you have presented, a strategic separation of the business units," Bruce Galloway wrote in the letter. Galloway wants to engage “constructively” with the management and the board to discuss its ideas further. "Following our analysis, we believe Chegg’s current share price reflects a substantial disconnect from intrinsic value," Galloway wrote in the letter. "At present levels, the market appears to be incorrectly pricing the business as though it is in financial distress. The Company maintains a strong balance sheet, is expected to exit the year with net cash and no debt, and, in our view, has no credible risk of financial distress." Shares of Chegg ( CHGG ) have fallen 22% this year before today. More on Chegg Chegg, Inc. 2025 Q4 - Results - Earnings Call Presentation Chegg, Inc.

Shares of Zoom Communications ( ZM ) rose 0.99% to $84.85 in the afternoon trade on Wednesday, adding to a seven-session rally. The stock has gained around 7% between March 30 and April 7, compared to a 4.30% rise in the S&P 500 during the same period. The gain comes amid upbeat analyst commentary on Zoom’s progress in integrating and monetizing artificial intelligence across its products, alongside expectations that larger share buybacks could support free cash flow per share growth, while the company also disclosed that its COO will step down next month. According to Seeking Alpha’s Quant Rating system, ZM is rated a Hold, with a score of 2.95 out of 5, receiving an A+ for profitability, but an F in terms of growth. A recent Seeking Alpha analysis said Zoom remains undervalued, citing its strong financial position and expansion potential, including its stake in Anthropic, while forecasting FY27 revenue of just over $5 billion and solid free cash flow generation. The analyst pointed to the company’s large cash reserves and lack of debt as key strengths supporting future investments and buybacks, adding that “this success gives us confidence in our ability to grow durably beyond $5 billion in revenue across progress in meetings, continued growth in Phone, scaling our AI-first customer experience, and in introducing new AI revenue streams.” While on Wall Street, 17 out of 28 analysts rate the stock a buy or higher, and nine recommend a hold, while two of them suggest a sell or lower. Despite the recent gain, shares remain 2.43% down year-to-date, but have gained around 10.4% in the past month .

studio-fi/iStock via Getty Images The aluminum market may remain in Alcoa Corporation’s ( AA ) favor for the remainder of eFY26 and beyond. This results from multiple constraints, including the supply chain challenges in the Middle East with idled facilities, increasing carbon taxes in the European Union, and the potential for easing U.S. tariffs on aluminum products. With appealing tailwinds at play, Alcoa may be well positioned to realize stronger margins for eFY26, providing more capacity to pay down its debt while reinvesting in ramping production. Given the appealing market environment and ahead of the next earnings release on April 16th, I am reiterating my Buy rating for AA shares with a price target of $82.61/share at 7.53x eFY28 EV/aEBITDA. Alcoa Corporation Operational Update Performance in Q4 ’25 was underpinned by higher volumes shipped, offset by lower selling prices for bauxite and alumina; aluminum realized both stronger volumes shipped and average selling prices increasing by 25% when compared to the previous year’s quarter. One of the leading factors for the strong Q4 ’25 performance was the Midwest premium, which is presently sitting at $2,481 per tonne of aluminum. Alcoa realized full tariff offsets as a result of the Midwest premium in Q4 ’25 in relation to aluminum imports from Canada. Adding relief to U.S. tariffs, the Trump administration recently announce d that finished aluminum products may realize a reduced tariff rate of 25%, down from 50%, potentially adding additional tailwinds to margins for Alcoa. London Metals Exchange Aluminum prices have experienced steady appreciation in the last year with recent pricing exhibiting more volatility, likely the result of the war in Iran. The Middle East supplies roughly 9% of the global aluminum capacity, 22% when excluding Chinese capacity. With the supply chain largely being taken offline since the start of the war, price discovery has been a major factor in recent weeks as the market determines t...

As talks begin over fixing the controversial regulations, the FIA’s Nikolas Tombazis says changes to ‘specific aspects’ are needed, not a total overhaul Formula One has endured a somewhat turbulent opening this season under the sport’s new regulations. Amid the sound and fury of some driver dissatisfaction with the new formula and safety concerns brought sharply into focus by a huge accident at the Japanese Grand Prix, three races in there is now an opportunity to propose changes, with the man who has been at the heart of the process since it began quietly confident that F1 can adapt successfully. Nikolas Tombazis is the single-seater director for F1’s governing body, the FIA, and has been with the organisation since 2018. He was there when the very first discussions of the 2026 regulations took place in January 2021 and has been central to their evolution since. In his calm and articulate fashion, Tombazis says the noise around the new regulations is overstated. Continue reading...
