Good evening, this is Markets Desk with your end-of-day briefing.

A federal judge in Florida granted President Trump a temporary reprieve from disclosing detailed financial records tied to his ten billion dollar lawsuit against the BBC. Trump's own legal team inadvertently opened the door to that disclosure, then scrambled to walk it back — the judge's pause is temporary, and the underlying order still stands.

Shifting to consumer sentiment around technology, a new Gallup survey conducted with Edward Jones finds roughly one in five Americans who sought financial advice in the past year turned to artificial intelligence to get it. But only about three in ten adults broadly say they trust AI with their money, meaning adoption is running well ahead of confidence.

And in a story that sits squarely at the intersection of healthcare and legal liability, an Atlanta-area woman has filed suit against Kaiser Permanente alleging a laboratory labeling error led to a false cancer diagnosis and an unnecessary hysterectomy. Cassandra Barksdale says another patient's tissue sample was mislabeled as hers, triggering months of surgery, treatment, and emotional trauma that she argues was entirely avoidable.

That's the tape. Markets Desk, signing off the floor.
