Tiffany & Co. sparkles in Q1, United Airlines offers luxury service at LAX, Wynn shareholders reject exec compensation plan

These are some of the stocks the Yahoo Finance team is watching for you today.

Tiffany (TIF) is shining bright this morning. The luxury jeweler is posting a big beat on earnings and net income for its first quarter. Tiffany’s CEO cited a 15% boost in worldwide sales and the launch of a new celebrity campaign featuring Elle Fanning for the strong results.

United Airlines (UAL) wants the wealthy to fly the friendly skies. The airline is launching the Private Suite at LAX, a new private terminal for premium class flyers. From the lux terminal, passengers will then be driven to their planes on the tarmac in a BMW 7-Series. But it’ll cost you. Annual membership is about $4,500.

Three new female directors have now been appointed to the board’s compensation committee.
