US-Börsen: Wall Street schließt vor Wahlnacht uneinheitlich – Tech-Werte stabilisieren sich
Vor den wichtigen Midterms legen die Techwerte zu. Nachdem der Nasdaq offiziell in eine Korrektur eingetreten ist, kehren Teile der Anleger auf die Käuferseite zurück.
On the night of the U.S. midterm elections, Wall Street experienced mixed results. After significant losses, tech sector stocks began to stabilize, with the exception of Apple. However, industrial stocks saw a slight dip during trading on Tuesday. The Dow Jones, composed of standard stocks, dropped by 0.4 percent to 51,786 points.
The broader S&P 500 closed slightly higher at 7,568 counts. The technology-focused Nasdaq index rose by 0.8 percent to 25,372 points, marking a recovery after closing more than 10 percent below its record high on Monday. This represented the beginning of a correction phase. The first results of the midterm elections would be released that night, with the final outcome depending on how close the individual races were.
It is possible that certainty about the final election results would not emerge until the end of the week. Voting would determine the composition of Congress, as well as dozens of gubernatorial positions and offices at both state and local levels, along with numerous proposals ranging from a billionaire tax to abortion rights. Surveys suggested that Democrats might take the majority in the House of Representatives from the Republicans, while the majority in the Senate remained uncertain.
The outcome of the elections would thus dictate how free Trump could govern in the remaining two years of his presidency.
