Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Nasdaq 100 components diverged sharply intraday on November 5 after Democrats swept both chambers in the U.S. midterm elections, fueling fears of tighter AI regulation and constraints on data-center buildouts. Storage and AI-infrastructure names sold off hard: SanDisk (SNDK.O) fell 18.98%, Nebius Group (NBIS.O) dropped 17.41%, Astera Labs (ALAB.O) lost 17.30%, AMD (AMD.O) slid 15.20% and Seagate (STX.O) declined 14.89%. Ad-tech and defensive retail names bucked the trend, with AppLovin (APP.O) surging 31.51%, Costco (COST.O) up 2.97%, Fastenal (FAST.O) up 2.57% and Roper Technologies (ROP.O) up 2.47%. The split matters because it prices in policy risk specific to AI hardware and cloud capacity rather than a broad tech selloff. Next, watch whether the incoming Congress signals concrete AI oversight or data-center siting and power rules, and whether the storage and GPU-linked weakness extends into follow-on sessions.
