Stocks close higher after weak start broad gains
Wall Street rose with the S&P 500 up 0.4 percent as banks consumer-focused firms and communications shares led gains while health care fell. The Dow gained 91.91 points and the Nasdaq rose 0.7 percent amid mixed economic data and ongoing unrest. Smaller caps advanced, and oil prices fell as investors balance reopening optimism with civil unrest concerns. The ISM manufacturing index showed contraction with May activity down, while the Supreme Court upheld Puerto Rico’s federal oversight board in a key bankruptcy case. Facebook workers staged a walkout over President Trump’s posts about protesters, pressuring Zuckerberg to justify keeping them up.

Publishers sue Internet Archive over copyright claims
Four major publishers sue the Internet Archive in federal court in New York alleging illegal distribution of more than a million scanned works including Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon Malcolm Gladwell's Blink and Cormac McCarthy's The Road. They accuse the archive of scanning printing and uploading books without licenses and letting users download complete in copyright titles with a few clicks. The suit cites an emergency library program announced in March amid COVID-19 school closures.
