Why is Thomson Reuters stock sliding today?

Thomson Reuters (TRI) shares fell 3.2% to $145.42 after Google launched Gemini Enterprise for Legal, raising concerns about competition in legal AI. TRI's own AI model launch was overshadowed. Broader market gains did not offset the decline. Analysts note TRI's data assets are a competitive advantage, but investors question its defensibility against tech giants.
