民主党在美国中期选举中赢得众议院和参议院多数席位后,市场最初因预期政治僵局而上涨,但随后转为担忧AI行业将面临更严格审查。此前,Meta和亚马逊等科技巨头公布庞大的AI支出计划已引发抛售,投资者担忧这些投资需要多久才能转化为利润增长。
民主党在美国中期选举中获胜后,投资者担心人工智能行业可能面临更严格的监管,加之对该行业自身弱点的忧虑再度浮现,美股遭遇近两年来最惨重的单日跌幅。
周四,标普500指数下跌4.4%,创下自2025年4月以来的最大单日跌幅。当时,特朗普总统宣布对全球实施大规模关税。
以科技股为主的纳斯达克综合指数下跌5.5%,进入回调区间,也就是较近期高点下跌至少10%。作为半导体行业基准指标的费城半导体指数暴跌逾12%。自10月初以来,该指数累计下跌超过30%,较6月的峰值已下跌近40%。
民主党赢得众议院和参议院多数席位后,市场周三最初上涨。投资者普遍乐见华盛顿陷入政治僵局,因为这意味着政府出台新法律法规、加强对企业监管的可能性降低。
但到了周四上午,市场开始担心中期选举可能开启一个人工智能行业受到更严格审查的时期,这进一步加剧了此前已持续数周对科技企业支出失控、债务攀升的忧虑。
一些分析师指出,民主党在几个正逐渐成为重要数据中心枢纽的州夺得了州长职位,这可能对人工智能基础设施建设构成实质性阻碍。
当天股市跌势愈演愈烈,标普500指数所有板块无一幸免。股价暴跌之际,被视为市场动荡时期避险资产的10年期美国国债价格上涨,收益率随之降至4.83%,创下9月以来的最低水平。
Cetera金融集团首席投资官吉恩·戈德曼表示,随着抛售在当天不断加速,市场跌势已经有些“过头”。他预计股市将会出现反弹。
“牛市中的回调通常不会持续太久,”他说。“现在的情况确实很难看,但我们确实认为市场很快就会反弹。”
周四的下跌重新点燃了在选举前夕暂停的抛售。上周,当Meta和亚马逊等科技巨头公布季度业绩、披露了庞大的人工智能支出计划时,引发更猛烈的抛售。投资者愈发担心,这些投资究竟需要多久才能转化为利润增长。
周四跌幅最大的一些股票来自芯片制造商。大型芯片制造商高通周四股价下跌9.5%。此前,该公司下调了盈利预期,表示芯片需求旺盛使其自身成本上升速度快于其提价能力。高通股价大跌也反映出市场更广泛的担忧:人工智能基础设施建设热潮造成的供应瓶颈可能拖慢整个行业的增长,进而延长投资者从人工智能投资中获得回报所需的时间。
另一家芯片制造商安谋控股因进军人工智能领域的业务收入不及预期,股价下跌13.1%。
芯片行业领头羊英伟达下跌9.3%,使其今年以来的累计涨幅化为乌有,转为下跌。
埃隆·马斯克旗下的特斯拉和SpaceX股价连续第二天大幅下跌。这两家公司均由世界首富、共和党巨额捐款人马斯克掌管。选举结束后,两家公司受到格外密切的关注,未来它们可能面临调查和更严格的监管审查。
相比整体市场,Alphabet和微软等大型“超大规模云计算服务商”周四的股价跌幅较小。一些分析师认为,人工智能基础设施建设竞赛如果放缓,反而可能有利于这些根基稳固的大型企业,既能巩固它们的主导地位,也能减缓此前令其承受压力的快速支出增长。
“这里的基本逻辑是,建设速度放缓,对那些花钱投资的企业可能相对有利,而对那些收取投资资金的企业则未必是好事,”城堡证券宏观策略主管弗兰克·弗莱特说。
分析师总体上仍对股市前景乐观,预计一旦当前波动消退,主要指数将反弹,不过,也有人认为,市场的剧烈震荡可能持续到年底。

Affected by international stock markets, Taiwan stocks plunged more than 3,000 points during the session on the 6th. Peng Jinlong, chairman of the Financial Supervisory Commission, said that Executive Yuan Zhuo Rongtai has issued instructions and will announce rescue measures in the afternoon, and outsiders are judging that an air restriction order may be issued. Peng Jinlong emphasized that Taiwan's economic fundamentals are intact and called on investors not to panic excessively.

After the U.S. midterm elections, the Democratic Party, which advocates slowing down the development of AI, won the election, triggering a sharp sell-off in global technology stocks. Nasdaq fell more than 5.5%, evaporating approximately US$2.5 trillion in market value; chip stocks such as Huida, TSMC, and SK Hynix plummeted, and Asian and European stock markets fell simultaneously. The market is worried that the return on investment in AI infrastructure and the construction of data centers may be limited.

ING analysis pointed out that the overall trade deficit of the United States in September reached 105 billion US dollars, of which the deficit in technology products was 64 billion US dollars, accounting for about 61%. With the construction of data centers, imports of technology products have surged, benefiting exporting countries such as Taiwan and South Korea, while net exports have been a drag on U.S. economic growth.

Taiwan stocks plunged more than 3,000 points at the opening today, with the weighted index falling below 40,000 points, triggering panic among investors. President Lai Ching-te made a speech when attending the ITF Taiwan International Travel Exhibition in the morning, calling on the Chinese people not to panic. The government will pay close attention to every change and introduce policies to stabilize the financial market as soon as possible.

Taiwan stocks plummeted more than 3,700 points today, once falling below the 40,000 mark. Moore Investment Consulting Chief Investment Officer Guo Zherong said that he bought another 50 million yuan of 0050, which together with the previous two times spent a total of 200 million yuan, and predicted that the chance of Taiwan stocks breaking 50,000 points by the end of the year is more than half.

U.S. stocks plummeted on Thursday, with the Dow Jones down 3.44%, the Nasdaq down 5.52%, and the S&P 500 down 4.36%. The disaster extended to Asia, with Taiwan stocks plummeting, the Nikkei index falling as much as 4,000 points in early trading, and South Korean stocks falling 8% during the session, triggering the circuit breaker mechanism. The market is worried that after the Democratic Party wins control of the U.S. Congress, AI construction supervision will be stricter, data center construction will slow down, and the decline of technology stocks will expand.
