Amazon loses US court ban on Perplexity's AI shopping tools

A U.S. appeals court on Tuesday overturned a ruling that had temporarily barred Perplexity from using its AI-powered agentic shopping tools on ‌Amazon's platform. In a novel legal dispute, the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court ‌of Appeals determined that Amazon was unlikely to succeed on its claim that Perplexity's AI agents violated a federal ​computer-hacking law. The ruling is the first by a federal appeals court to address whether AI agents acting on behalf of users can legally access online platforms, a question with broad implications for the fast-growing field of agentic AI tools that can browse, shop and transact across the web.

Stocks Bounce Back From Fed Day Turmoil

Stocks kicked off Thursday’s trading session higher, reemerging from the carnage of Wednesday’s selloff. The S&P 500 was up 0.9%, while the Nasdaq Composite rose 1.6%. Rosenberg Research’s Dave Rosenberg described the moves as “a weak stock-market bound on shaky ground,” nodding to the major averages’ “precarious technical positions,” yesterday’s rise in bond yields, and oil price spikes.
