The company announced that cyber criminals got access to the names, addresses, emails and credit card details including the card number, expiration date and security code of travelers who booked flights on British Airways' website and app between August 21 and September 5. CEO Alex Cruz called it the worst data breach since the company’s website was launched 20 year s ago. British Airways has promised to pay for a credit check for customers and to compensate them for any losses.

According to the airline, it began notifying customers late on Thursday. Some customers on Friday complained that they first got to know about it from the media versus the company, while some others claimed to have received blank emails from the airline.

BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) is set to report Q1 FY2026 earnings on January 16, 2026, with consensus estimates calling for EPS of $0.15 and revenue of approximately $79.3 million.
Bank of America (BAC) and Wells Fargo (WFC) will both report Q4 2025 earnings on January 14, 2026, creating a rare same-day, apples-to-apples comparison.
Citigroup (C) is set to report Q4 2025 earnings on January 14, 2026, making it the immediate catalyst in this comparison. HSBC Holdings (HSBC) will release its Full-Year 2025 results on February 25, 2026, positioning it as a medium-term earnings event.
Wells Fargo’s quarterly results carry broader significance because the bank serves as a key indicator of U.S. consumer and commercial banking conditions. Its earnings often influence sentiment toward the entire large-cap banking sector. After a stretch of improved market conditions and stronger capital markets activity, investors are looking for confirmation that profit momentum is sustainable rather than driven by a single favorable quarter.
M&T Bank (MTB) is expected to deliver Q4 2025 EPS of $4.44–$4.46, representing roughly 13% year-over-year growth, driven by improving net interest income as funding costs decline. PNC Financial Services Group (PNC) is projected to post Q4 EPS of $4.19–$4.23, supported by about 1.5% sequential NII growth from rate relief and steady loan demand. U.S. Bancorp (USB) is forecast to earn $1.19 per share, an 11.2% annual increase, with revenues estimated at $7.33 billion, up 5%.
Dash (DASH.X) has ignited the crypto market with a powerful mid-January 2026 breakout, rallying more than 125% in a single week and decisively outperforming fellow privacy coins such as Monero and Zcash. The surge was fueled by a sharp short squeeze that wiped out nearly $4.9 million in bearish positions, alongside a major catalyst: Dash’s integration with Alchemy Pay, enabling direct fiat purchases across 173 countries.
The Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF (SCHA) is holding firm near the $28 level as 2026 begins, even as broader markets remain volatile. While short-term price action has been uneven, underlying signals suggest the ETF may be setting up for a meaningful breakout as interest-rate cuts revive small-cap equities. Technical models highlight an unusually favorable risk-reward profile—up to 22:1—with long-term momentum strengthening despite near-term consolidation.
The Vanguard Small-Cap Value ETF (VB) is quietly standing out in what has been a turbulent start to 2026. While many small-cap segments have struggled, VB has shown notable resilience, including a 3.2% jump on January 14, driven by renewed buying interest in undervalued industrial and financial stocks. This divergence from broader small-cap weakness suggests early signs of mean reversion, particularly as incoming economic data points toward eventual interest-rate relief.
The Vanguard Russell 2000 ETF (VTWO) has entered 2026 with renewed technical strength, breaking through several key indicators that suggest a potential trend reversal. On January 2, 2026, VTWO’s Momentum Indicator moved decisively above zero, a signal often associated with the early stages of bullish cycles. This followed an earlier technical milestone in December 2025, when the 10-day moving average crossed above the 50-day, drawing attention from momentum and swing traders alike.
CAOS, the trading ticker for IRIS Energy Limited, is emerging as a standout performer in early 2026 as two powerful trends converge: Bitcoin’s renewed surge and explosive demand for AI-ready data infrastructure. As Bitcoin pushes higher and investors hunt for leveraged exposure to both crypto and artificial intelligence, CAOS has attracted increasing attention from retail and quantitative traders alike.
Prologis (PLD), the world’s largest logistics-focused REIT, reported fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 earnings on January 21, 2026, capping a standout year for the industrial real estate sector. Demand for modern logistics facilities remains elevated as e-commerce expansion and supply chain reconfiguration continue to reshape global distribution networks.
The Travelers Companies, Inc.(TRV), a major player in the property and casualty insurance market, reported fourth-quarter 2025 results on January 21, 2026, closing out a year marked by underwriting discipline despite volatile weather activity and pricing pressures. The results underscore Travelers’ ability to generate strong profitability while navigating challenges in personal insurance lines and heightened catastrophe risk.
FingerMotion, Inc. (NASDAQ: FNGR) reported fiscal third-quarter 2026 results on January 15, 2026, triggering a sharp selloff as investors reacted to a steep revenue decline and widening losses. Shares fell roughly 32% following the release after the mobile services provider disclosed a 32% year-over-year drop in revenue and a net loss of $1.67 million for the quarter ended November 30, 2025.
CSX Corporation, a major U.S. East Coast rail operator, reports fourth-quarter 2025 earnings after market close today, marking the end of a year characterized by uneven freight recovery. Comparing CSX with Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CP), now a transcontinental operator following its 2023 merger, highlights contrasting strategies within the North American rail sector.
Procter & Gamble (PG) reports fiscal Q2 2026 earnings on January 22, with consensus expecting modest revenue growth amid commodity and tariff pressures. EPS is forecast at ~$1.87, slightly below last year’s $1.88. Colgate-Palmolive (CL) is set to release Q4 2025 earnings on January 30, while Unilever (UL) reports full-year 2025 results on February 12.
CSX (NASDAQ: CSX) reports Q4 2025 earnings after market close on January 22, 2026, with consensus EPS ~$0.42 and revenue ~$3.57 billion. Union Pacific (NYSE: UNP) follows on January 27, with EPS expected near $2.89 and revenue around $6.15 billion. Norfolk Southern (NYSE: NSC) closes the week on January 29, with consensus EPS ~$2.77.
The SPDR S&P Aerospace & Defense ETF (XAR) has surged to a new 52-week high above $281 this week, climbing 21% month-to-date and 20% year-to-date through January 2026. The rally, driven by robust sector momentum and a clean technical breakout, is outpacing broader indices like the S&P 500. XAR’s equal-weighted structure amplifies gains from top aerospace and defense holdings in missiles, aircraft, and space systems, attracting significant trader and institutional attention amid heightened geopolitical tensions.
The iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF (ITA) continues to attract trader attention, building on a remarkable 47.7% gain in 2025 amid rising defense budgets and heightened global security concerns. The ETF is approaching all-time highs, with top holdings such as GE Aerospace and RTX Corporation driving the rally. Traders are adding positions on dips while monitoring confirmation above key resistance levels near recent peaks, anticipating a potential technical breakout.
ProShares Ultra Gold (UGL), the leveraged ETF designed to deliver 2× the daily performance of gold futures, has climbed sharply this week as gold prices continue near historic levels. The ETF’s move reflects renewed inflows into gold-related products and heightened investor interest in safe-haven assets amid ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty. UGL’s price action closely mirrors the strong trend in gold futures, attracting short-term momentum trading even as the leveraged structure carries heightened risk.
Hubbell Incorporated (HUBB) reached an all-time high of $485.91 this week, reflecting strong buying interest in the industrial sector. The breakout comes amid mixed institutional activity—some funds trimming positions while others add new stakes—highlighting investor focus on HUBB’s multi-year rally.
