I just received the email about #DiscoverCard’s transition to being fully integrated into #CapitalOne, including account management through the Capital One app. So I called to ask whether they planned to continue offering the Discover card design that features all account information in #Braille on the face of the card.

I was assured by an agent, who genuinely seemed knowledgeable about the transition, that they would.

Of course, I’ll be monitoring things closely, but it was heartening to hear that answer. And, as I do every single time I contact them, I left positive feedback thanking them for continuing to offer a card design with all account information in #Braille. #Accessibility

US Top News and Analysis | Savings rates drop even without Fed cuts. Here’s where you can still earn 4% on your cash

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Savings rates are slipping even though the Federal Reserve kept its benchmark rate steady at 3.5%‑3.75% in its latest meeting, prompting several major banks—Capital One, Synchrony, Marcus by Goldman Sachs and Ally—to cut the APYs on their high‑yield savings accounts. Meanwhile, Bread Financial and LendingClub are still offering around 4% but are expected to trim rates soon, as they sit well above the peer median. Online banks continue to outpace traditional institutions, with 12‑month CDs from Marcus yielding 4% and shorter‑term CDs from Bread Financial and LendingClub offering 4.15%; longer‑term CDs from American Express and Sallie Mae reach 4% as well. Building a CD ladder across varying maturities can provide flexibility and higher yields, while money‑market funds remain just under 4% (the Crane 100’s 7‑day yield was 3.47% on Tuesday).

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

A judge has approved a $425 million settlement of a lawsuit alleging that Capital One paid lower interest rates on its older 360 Savings accounts while offering higher rates on the newer 360 Performance Savings product.

US Top News and Analysis | Here's what Cramer wants to see from Capital One when the bank reports tonight

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

In Tuesday’s CNBC Investing Club “Morning Meeting,” Jim Cramer recapped a market dip driven by a surge in oil prices ahead of the Iran cease‑fire and highlighted a “whacky day” with notable moves in banks, defense, semiconductors and software while the club added a small position in Arm Holdings. He noted that KeyBanc upgraded CrowdStrike to a buy‑equivalent rating, citing AI‑driven cybersecurity demand and expressed confidence in the company’s growth despite broader skepticism toward the sector. Looking ahead to Capital One’s earnings, Cramer warned that the stock’s recent rally may be premature after a lackluster quarter and urged a more aggressive share‑buyback program and clearer rationalization of its Discover and Brex acquisitions. The meeting closed with rapid‑fire coverage of GE Aerospace, RTX, UnitedHealth Group, 3M and D.R. Horton, and Cramer disclosed that his charitable trust holds long positions in CrowdStrike, Capital One and Palo Alto Networks.

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

After the bell, several notable stocks made headline‑grabbing moves: United Airlines climbed about 1% even though it issued weaker‑than‑expected guidance for 2026 earnings (now projected at $7‑$11 per share versus the prior $12‑$14 range) and a lower quarterly outlook, while still beating first‑quarter earnings and revenue estimates. Capital One fell nearly 4% after reporting first‑quarter earnings of $4.42 per share and revenue of $15.23 billion, both miss­ing analysts’ expectations. Interactive Brokers slipped roughly 2% as its Q1 revenue came in at $1.68 billion, shy of the $1.71 billion forecast, though earnings were on target. Insurance heavyweight Chubb lost 1% despite posting core operating earnings of $6.82 per share, beating the $6.60 consensus, while W. R. Berkley rose 2% after reporting operating earnings of $1.30 per share, above the $1.13 estimate, even though its premium figures fell short. Adobe saw its stock rise more than 2% after the board approved a $25 billion stock‑repurchase program extending through April 2030, a move aimed at supporting the shares, which have been down over 29% year‑to‑date.
