Trump Attributes Stock Market Decline to Democrats' Midterm Election Victories
Following the US midterm elections, President Donald Trump blamed Democrats for a sharp decline in the stock market, particularly in technology and AI-related stocks, which led to significant losses in Americans' 401(k) portfolios. The Nasdaq 100 fell over 6%, marking its worst session since March 2020, while the S&P 500 and Dow Jones also saw notable drops. Trump attributed the sell-off to concerns over potential Democratic regulations on AI and data centers but reassured investors that markets would recover and grow stronger.
