❗ US Stock Market Loses $3.2 Trillion Amid AI Sell-Off
On Thursday, the US stock market faced a massive sell-off, with total company capitalization plunging by $3.2 trillion. The primary trigger for panic on Wall Street was the Democratic Party's victory in the midterm congressional elections. Investors grew doubtful about the technology sector's previous prospects due to fears of stricter state regulation of artificial intelligence, increased antitrust scrutiny, and a potential slowdown in the construction of new data centers.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq index bore the brunt of the blow, dropping 6.4%. The sell-off hit key industry players hard: AMD shares fell by 12%, Micron dropped by 9%, and Tesla and Qualcomm shares plummeted by 10%–11%. This sudden shift in the political balance of power completely upended market expectations, sparking one of the largest single-day asset sell-offs in recent times.
