What happened
- AI stocks rebounded Friday, halting a worldwide sell-off but recovering only part of the previous two days’ losses.
- The Nasdaq rose 1.1% and the S&P 500 gained 0.3%, while the Dow fell 0.5%, leaving all three indexes down for the week.
- Thursday’s sell-off sent the Nasdaq down 5.5% before spreading to Asia and Europe, with Tokyo and Seoul stocks closing Friday about 6% lower.
- Investors worried that Democrats’ election victories could slow data center construction and AI spending, adding to concerns about high stock prices and heavy borrowing.
- Next week’s earnings from companies supplying AI computing power will test investor confidence, with questions about data center spending and financing still unresolved.
How the left told it
Left-leaning outlets largely framed the turmoil as a test of the AI investment boom after Democrats’ victories. CNN highlighted how borrowed money deepened the selling, while The Guardian examined whether an AI bubble was bursting; the Los Angeles Times emphasized Friday’s recovery and the losses it left unrecovered.
How the right told it
Right-leaning outlets largely linked the sell-off to fears that Democratic victories would slow AI expansion. Fox Business and the New York Post prominently covered Trump blaming Democrats for the losses, while The Washington Times emphasized that AI stocks had halted their “brutal, worldwide sell-off” Friday.
