IAG share price edges up in London as oil steadies; Middle East diversions in focus

London, Jan 16, 2026, 09:07 GMT — Regular session Shares of International Consolidated Airlines Group (ICAG.L), the parent company of British Airways, ticked up 0.2% to 411.5 pence in early London trading on Friday.

Archer Aviation stock dips after a big-volume jump as Wall Street eyes FAA milestones

NEW YORK, Jan 15, 2026, 09:41 EST — Regular session Archer Aviation Inc shares slipped 0.8% to $8.84 in early Thursday trading, giving back some of the previous day’s 5.2% jump.

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 10:04 (ET) — Regular session Archer Aviation shares slipped 0.8% to $8.40 in early trading Wednesday, despite Needham sticking with a buy rating and a $10 price target, per a report from GuruFocus. (GuruFocus) Timing is key as air-taxi stocks have been moving like rate-sensitive plays following new U.S. inflation figures.
