Democrats sweep Congress; markets wary of AI stock sell-off
🎯 Possible post-election power combinations in Congress and their market impact—JPMorgan’s latest analysis:
**1️⃣ Democrats control both the House and Senate (66% probability)**
The S&P 500 could fall 0.25% or rise 0.5%. Markets are concerned that stricter AI regulation and restrictions on data center construction could trigger a sell-off in AI-related stocks. However, JPMorgan believes that even if an AI restriction bill passes Congress, it would be difficult to override a Trump veto, and advises traders to buy technology stocks on pullbacks. Spending to finance the fiscal deficit may decrease, putting downward pressure on long-term Treasury yields; corporate executives connected to political donations to Trump may face a greater risk of congressional investigations.
**2️⃣ Democrats control the House, Republicans control the Senate (26% probability)**
The S&P 500 is expected to rise 0.5% to 1%. Markets may welcome legislative gridlock resulting from divided power, since neither party would be able to push through major policies or expand government spending on its own. Long-term Treasury yields may fall, but some companies and their leaders may still face congressional investigations.
**3️⃣ Republicans retain control of both the House and Senate (7% probability)**
The S&P 500 is expected to rise 1% to 1.25%. Markets would not have to immediately contend with new congressional regulatory risks, and technology companies would face relatively limited policy pressure. However, spending to finance the fiscal deficit may increase further, pushing long-term Treasury yields higher; Trump potentially continuing military action against Iran is also a risk in this scenario.
**4️⃣ Republicans control the House, Democrats control the Senate (1% probability)**
The S&P 500 is expected to rise 0.25% to 0.75%. The two parties sharing control of Congress could spark more intense budget battles and even lead to a federal government shutdown. With control of the Senate, Democrats could still conduct congressional investigations, putting related companies and individuals at risk of investigation
