London, July 14, 2026, 11:00 BST Lloyds Banking Group (LON:LLOY) has spent about 71% of its up-to-£1.75 billion 2026 buyback, but the share rally means a fully spent programme would buy about 1.72 billion shares at Tuesday’s price — roughly 22% fewer than last year despite a 3% larger budget. Each pound now buys less of the bank. (SEC) A buyback — when a company buys and cancels its own shares — can raise earnings per share if profit holds. But at higher prices, the same cash removes fewer shares. The trade-off is sharper now. Delayed market data put Lloyds at

NEW YORK, July 13, 2026, 15:10 EDT Sandisk (NASDAQ:SNDK) shares sank 13% to about $1,669 on Monday afternoon.

The more useful signal for investors is what Intel did not do: selected 18A layers are also qualified on ASML’s established NXE platform at matched yields, so Panther Lake is not tied to the new machine.
