Stocks & Indices Rumor First seen

Chip stocks fall sharply as Wall Street posts worst post-midterm second session since 1896

A r/stocks post reports that chip stocks are selling off and the Dow is heading for its worst second session after a midterm election in data going back to 1896. The post states the Nasdaq erased its post-election rally within six minutes, was down more than 5% in late-morning trading, and the S&P 500 was off more than 3%, with both on pace for their worst day since the April 2025 tariff crash, after investors bought stocks Wednesday when Democrats won control of both chambers of Congress.
