Horizon Finance earnings missed by $0.85, revenue topped estimates

Air India is reportedly in discussions to place a significant order for new narrow-body jets, according to insider sources. While details are still under wraps, this move signals the airline’s aggressive expansion plans as it aims to modernize its fleet and compete more effectively in both domestic and short-haul international markets.

The CEO of Emirates isn’t mincing words—he’s calling out aircraft manufacturers for what he sees as excessive complaining about supply chain problems. Instead of just worrying, he wants them to step up and fix the delays that are causing headaches for airlines.

IndiGo, India’s largest airline, just struck a major deal with global heavyweights Air France-KLM, Virgin Atlantic, and Delta to expand its international reach. This partnership will let IndiGo passengers seamlessly connect to flights across Europe and North America, while the foreign carriers gain better access to India’s booming travel market. Think of it as a win-win for frequent flyers on both sides.

Luxury fashion group Capri—which owns Versace, Michael Kors, and Jimmy Choo—is taking a serious hit as all three brands underperform. Think fewer shoppers splurging on high-end handbags and heels, and more people tightening their belts.

Editor’s Note: When big-name designers start stumbling, it’s often a sign that even wealthy shoppers are pulling back. If this slump continues, it could mean price cuts, store closures, or a shift in how luxury brands try to win back customers. Not great news for the glitzy end of fashion.

The Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) is warning that the UK government can't avoid making hard decisions on public spending. While the NHS and defense budgets are getting boosts, other areas—like education or local services—will likely face cuts to balance the books. It’s a classic "robbing Peter to pay Paul" scenario, with no easy way out.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about spreadsheets—it’s about real-world trade-offs. If healthcare and military spending are protected, everything from pothole repairs to school funding could take a hit. For anyone relying on public services, this signals tighter times ahead. The IFS carries weight, so their warnings often foreshadow actual policy moves.
