Amazon-backed Anthropic rolls out Claude AI for financial services
The so-called Financial Analysis Solution can help financial professionals make investment decisions, analyze markets and conduct research, Anthropic said. It includes the company's Claude 4 models, Claude Code and Claude for Enterprise with expanded usage limits, implementation support and other features.
"Claude provides the complete platform for financial AI—from immediate deployment to custom development," Anthropic said in a release.
As part of its new Financial Analysis Solution, Claude will get real-time access to financial information through data providers like Box, PitchBook, Databricks, S&P Global and Snowflake. Anthropic said many of these integrations are available on Tuesday, with more to come.
Anthropic's Financial Analysis Solution and Claude for Enterprise are available on AWS Marketplace. The company said Google Cloud Marketplace availability is coming soon.
The Amazon-backed AI startup was founded by former OpenAI research executives, and its debut product was the Claude chatbot in March 2023.
Anthropic announced its latest models, Claude Opus 4 and Claude Sonnet 4, in May, roughly nine months after it rolled out its business product called Claude for Enterprise.
Anthropic's Claude models and AI assistant have exploded in popularity as more businesses work to incorporate generative AI across marketing, sales and other customer service functions.
As of March, Anthropic closed its latest funding round at a $61.5 billion post-money valuation.

Amazon's AI Coding Revealed a Dirty Little Secret
Coders who use artificial intelligence to help them write software are facing a growing problem, and Inc. is the latest company to fall victim. A hacker was recently able to infiltrate an AI-powered plugin for Amazon's coding tool, 1 secretly instructing it to delete files from the computers it was used on. The incident points to a gaping security hole in generative AI that has gone largely unnoticed in the race to capitalize on the technology. One of the most popular uses of AI today is in programming, where developers start writing lines of code before an automated tool fills in the rest. Coders can save hours of time debugging and Googling solutions. Startups Replit, Lovable and Figma, have reached valuations of $1.2 billion, $1.8 billion and $12.5 billion respectively, according to market intelligence firm Pitchbook, by selling tools designed to generate code, and they're often built on pre-existing models such as OpenAI's ChatGPT or Anthropic's Claude. Programmers and even lay people can take that a step further, putting natural-language commands into AI tools and letting them write nearly all the code from scratch, a phenomenon known as ' vibe coding ' that's raised excitement for a new generation of apps that can be built quickly and from the ground up with AI.

US-China tariff talks may provide clues on a possible Trump-Xi meeting
Analysts say the talks could set the stage for a possible meeting between President Other issues on the agenda include access of American businesses to the Chinese market; Chinese investment in the United States; components of fentanyl made in China that reach US consumers; Chinese purchases of Russian and Iranian oil; and American steps to limit exports of Western technology — like chips that help power artificial intelligence systems. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up The talks ended for the day after nearly five hours on Monday, and were set to reconvene on Tuesday morning. Advertisement Wendy Cutler, a former US trade negotiator and now vice president at the Asia Society Policy Institute, said that Trump's team would face challenges from 'a large and confident partner that is more than willing to retaliate against US interests.' Rollover of tariff rates 'should be the easy part,' she said, warning that Beijing has learned lessons since the first Trump administration and 'will not buy into a one-sided deal this time around.' Advertisement 'Beijing is more prepared and will insist on movement on US tech export controls at a minimum — a difficult ask for Washington,' she said, adding that many conversations will take place in the lead-up to any Xi-Trump summit. 'Success is far from guaranteed,' Cutler said. 'There are numerous trip wires that can throw a wrench in this preparatory process.' The US-China trade talks are the third this year, nearly four months after Trump upended global trade with his The Stockholm meeting, following similar talks in Geneva and London, is set to extend a 90-day pause on those tariffs. During the hiatus, US tariffs have been lowered to 30 percent on Chinese goods, and China set a 10 percent tariff on US products. The Trump administration, which just completed a China's Commerce Ministry said last week that the 'consultations' would raise shared concerns through the principles of 'mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation.' The talks with Beijing are part of a flurry of US trade negotiations set off by Trump's arm-twisting 'Liberation Day' tariffs against Without an extension by Aug. 12, the tit-for-tat US-China tariffs could snap back to the triple-digit levels seen before the 90-day pause reached in Geneva. Many other countries — including some developing ones that depend on exports to the United States — face a deadline of Friday, as the Trump administration has said that letters will go out beforehand with set rates. Advertisement Critics say Trump's tariffs penalize Americans by forcing US importers to shoulder the costs or pass them on to consumers through higher prices. On Friday, Trump told reporters that 'we have the confines of a deal with China' — just two days after Bessent told MSNBC that a 'status quo' had been reached between the two sides. While the Chinese side has offered little guidance about the specifics of its aims in Stockholm, Bessent has suggested that the situation has stabilized to the point that China and the United States can start looking toward longer-term balance between their economies. For years, since China vaulted into the global trading system about two decades ago, the United States has sought to press leaders in Beijing to encourage more consumption in China and wrest greater market access to foreign-made — including American — goods. Other sticking points in the relationship include overcapacity in China — by far the world's largest manufacturer — and concerns about whether Beijing is doing enough to control chemicals used to make fentanyl, analysts say. In Stockholm, the Chinese will likely demand the removal of a Experts say long-term progress in the US-China trade relationship will hinge on structural changes. Those include increased manufacturing in the United States, which is part of Trump's ambition. On the Chinese side, that could involve a reduction of excess Chinese production in many industries, including electric vehicles and steel, and increased Chinese consumer spending to ease imbalances in China's export-driven economy. Advertisement Sean Stein, president of the US-China Business Council, said the the talks in Stockholm offer an opportunity for the two governments to address structural reform issues. Businesses will watch for clues about a possible Trump-Xi summit, because any real deal will depend on a meeting between the pair, he said. A deal is possible because 'a lot of the things that the US wants, the Chinese want as well,' Stein said. China, for example, is interested in buying US soybeans, and aircraft and parts, and Chinese businesses are interested in investing in US manufacturing — which would help meet Trump's goal of reindustrialization. Bessent has also said the Stockholm talks could address Chinese purchases of Russian and Iranian oil.

Anthropic is rate limiting Claude Code, blaming some users for never turning it off
Anthropic has introduced new weekly rate limits on its Claude Code tool for AI assistance with coding tasks. The move comes shortly after the AI company quietly began implementing rate limits on the Claude Code service, which is an agentic side of the AI chatbot that is capable of reading code, editing files, performing tests and pushing GitHub commits. According to a series of posts from Anthropic on X, these changes are in response to some users who have been running Claude Code "continuously in the background, 24/7." Not only does that add up to a hefty environmental toll, the instances of non-stop use are also financially expensive for Anthropic. The company additionally questioned whether some users were violating terms of service by sharing or reselling accounts. Claude Code is only available on Anthropic's Pro and Max plans, the most expensive of which is $200 a month. Those subscriptions which will start seeing the weekly rate limits beginning in August. "We estimate they'll apply to less than 5% of subscribers based on current usage," the company said. For those people who do run up against the limits on the Max plan, there will be an option to purchase extra usage at standard API rates.
