With Abdul El-Sayed winning Michigan and Josh Turek losing Iowa, Democrats have captured both chambers of Congress. This 'Blue Tsunami' shifts the policy outlook toward increased regulation and potential antitrust scrutiny, particularly affecting the tech sector which had benefited from the previous administration's deregulatory stance. AMD reported Q3 revenue of $13.4 billion, up 45% year-over-year, with its data center segment nearly doubling to $8.5 billion. This exceptional performance in AI infrastructure demand allowed the stock to rise approximately 4% after hours, bucking the broader tech selloff triggered by the midterm election results.
