The stock market started the day with a decline

BIST 100 index at Borsa Istanbul, which followed a sales-oriented trend yesterday, ended the day at 11,333.27 points, losing 1.26 percent of its value.

The index dropped to 11,237.83 points at the opening today, with a decrease of 95.44 points and 0.84 percent compared to the previous closing. The banking index lost 1.09 percent and the holding index lost 1.12 percent.

While all sector indices decreased, the biggest loser was transportation with 2.10 percent.

While global markets followed a negative course as the selling pressure, led by the technology sector, spread throughout the world due to concerns that artificial intelligence investments in the USA may be restricted, all eyes are on the non-agricultural employment data to be announced in the USA today.

While the midterm election results in the USA continue to have an impact on asset prices, it is discussed that the Democrats, who gained the majority in the House of Representatives and the Senate, may implement regulations that could limit artificial intelligence investments in the country.

Concerns that the progress in artificial intelligence technologies, which has become one of the important driving forces of global economic growth in recent years, may slow down and existing investments may be disrupted, led to an acceleration of sales in the markets, led by technology stocks. The sales pressure that started in the USA soon spread throughout the world.

Analysts stated that an intense data agenda will be followed today, especially the treasury cash balance in the country and non-agricultural employment in the USA, as well as industrial production in Germany and retail sales in the Eurozone, and noted that technically, 11,200 and 11,100 points in the BIST 100 index are support, while 11,300 and 11,400 points are resistance.
