Microsoft confirms Copilot 'super app' coming this year, lifting tech stocks post-Fed selloff

The Globe and Mail—Microsoft has confirmed plans to launch a Copilot "super app" later this year, consolidating its AI assistant into a single hub rather than the scattered Copilot integrations spread across Windows, Office, and edge products today. The announcement helped lift Microsoft shares Wednesday, with CNBC reporting broader stock futures rebounding from a Fed-driven selloff across tech. The Globe and Mail frames Microsoft specifically as offsetting premarket concerns tied to the Federal Reserve, suggesting the super-app news landed at a moment when investors needed a reason to buy back into tech. Neither Reuters, TechCrunch, nor the Verge detail what functionality the consolidated app will add beyond the existing Copilot features.
