Tech Selloff Sparks Fear of Slower AI Under Democrat Rule
Investors retreat from tech shares as worries about data‑center slowdown and political impact on AI drive a market rout, leaving the Nasdaq in correction.
For many voters, the Thursday rout, driven by concerns about a potential slowdown in data‑center construction and the prospect that a Democrat election victory could mean slower AI development, shows how political uncertainty is pushing investors to sell off tech shares.
The tech selloff has already pushed the Nasdaq into correction, yet the S&P 500 and Nasdaq managed to edge up in early trading after the rout, while AI stocks climbed even after trillions were wiped from market values.
