Global tech stocks plunge as US midterms add to AI slowdown fears - live updates
The BBC's live updates page tracks a global tech stock sell-off in which trillions of dollars were wiped off firms in the US, Europe and Asia amid fears of an AI slowdown, after Democrats won control of Congress on campaigns against AI data centres, hitting chip makers such as SK Hynix, Samsung and Infineon hardest. BBC Verify examines whether data centre backlash helped the Democrats, and Donald Trump calls it 'one of the Worst Days in History' on Truth Social, while analyst Susannah Streeter says the shock is not the end of the AI trade.
