By Xavier Martinez

Wealth management stocks sank Tuesday after financial-technology firm Altruist announced an artificial intelligence tool that it says can create personalized tax strategies by interpreting financial documents without manual entry.

-- Shares of Raymond James were recently down more than 8%, on pace for its worst percent decrease since March 2020, during the Covid-19 pandemic.

-- Other financial-service providers-including LPL, Charles Schwab and Stifel-were down at least 5%.

-- Tuesday's decline in financial stocks comes after data-provider and software stocks fell sharply last week after AI startup Anthropic announced specialized tools meant to help automate analysis and research tasks.
