1451 GMT - Shares in software company RELX continue to show signs of recovery as the stock rises 4.6% in afternoon European trade. RELX was among the first companies to suffer at the hands of investors fearing competition from artificial intelligence-powered agents early this month. The stock remains down 23% so far this year, and down 10% since Feb. 2--the day before the first wave of AI fear-induced selling. The share pushes higher today after analysts at J.P. Morgan raise their earnings per share estimate to 1.582 pounds, up from a current estimate of 1.404 pounds. (josephmichael.stonor@wsj.com)
