Following the Democratic Party's victory in the midterm elections and securing control of Congress, several Democratic lawmakers and newly elected officials have called for stricter restrictions or a moratorium on the approval of artificial intelligence and data center construction. Notably, Senator Bernie Sanders took to social media to call for a nationwide moratorium on data centers. Affected by this, investors fear that the Democratic victory will have a substantive impact on data center construction, triggering a sharp sell-off in chip stocks. The iShares Semiconductor ETF plummeted by nearly 9%, NVIDIA tumbled 8%, and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) dropped over 14%.
