US-Börsen: Nasdaq bricht um mehr als vier Prozent ein – Anleger stellen sich auf Politikwechsel ein
Die US-Anleger knüpfen nicht an die Euphorie nach den Midterms an. In der Breite starten die Indizes im Minus. Besonders die Technologiewerte verlieren stark. Das hat mehrere Gründe.
The U.S. midterm elections continue to impact financial markets on Thursday. Analysts note that the stock market is in the midst of a rotation, driven by expectations of the future U.S. political landscape. The Republican Party's underperformance is particularly affecting technology stocks. The technology-focused Nasdaq index declines by more than four percent to 24,700 points.
Even the Nasdaq 100, which tracks the 100 largest non-financial companies by market capitalization, loses 4.5 percent, settling at 27,171. The broader S&P 500 index drops 2.5 percent to 7,115 points, returning to levels seen at the start of August. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, composed of blue-chip stocks, slips 1.2 percent to 52,669 points.
Investors are concerned that the Democratic Party's victory might lead to slower artificial intelligence (AI) development or hinder the construction of new data centers. There is also apprehension that AI investments may not ultimately prove financially rewarding.
