I was about to sleep, how can I sleep now! Is it the reckoning moment for both Trump and Silicon Valley? The US stock market took another heavy hit on Thursday, with the Nasdaq plunging nearly 5% intraday, and AI industry chain stocks like Nvidia, AMD, and CoreWeave collectively diving. Notably, the sell-off in the AI sector is not an isolated event. Since October, the Nasdaq's market value has evaporated by over $2.5 trillion. After the Democrats took control of both houses of Congress, the market began to worry: the era of the US AI infrastructure boom might be facing a policy shift. And the Democrats have already started to reveal their cards: 1️⃣ The Trump family: preparing to face congressional investigations. Incoming House Oversight Committee Chair Robert Garcia declared that investigations will cover the Trump family's business interests, corporate corruption, the Department of Homeland Security and ICE enforcement issues, as well as the Epstein files controversy, even directly warning: "Lawyers, get ready." 2️⃣ AI giants: regulatory pressure surges. Sanders and Casar previously proposed the "Ban on Artificial Superintelligence Act," advocating for a ban on super AI and a pause on advanced AI development until a federal regulatory framework is established. 3️⃣ Data centers: local voters have already voted against them. On November 3, 41 local referendums related to data centers took place across 10 states nationwide, with at least 33 supporting restrictions on construction. Sanders and others continue to push for a halt on data center construction. 4️⃣ The Trump administration: the scope of investigations may continue to expand. From ICE immigration enforcement to the interests between corporations and government, and to the Epstein files, the Democrats are paving the way for a new round of congressional oversight. In recent years, the US capital markets have bet on the Trump administration's tax cuts, deregulation, and AI infrastructure expansion. Now, the Democrats bring a different set of policy expectations: investigations, regulation, restrictions on data center expansion, and a reexamination of the power of AI giants. It’s too early to conclude whether the AI bubble has burst. But Wall Street is clearly beginning to realize: the biggest risk of AI may not just be technical and profitability issues, but political ones as well.
