TRX Reddit post argues post-midterm AI sell-off is overreaction, cites lawmaker holdings
A Reddit r/investing post argues the post-midterm AI and semiconductor sell-off is a market overreaction and says Democrats will not kill the AI boom. It cites a Sludge report that 105 members of Congress hold personal stock in AI companies and points to disclosures for Rep. Josh Gottheimer and Nancy Pelosi. The post says Gottheimer's disclosures show MSFT call options plus positions in MU, PANW and CRWD, and that Pelosi exercised NVDA call options for 5,000 shares and bought more NVDA and GOOGL calls.
