Dow Jones futures jumped as much as 1,083 points, or 2.1%, after Democrats won majorities in both the House and Senate in the midterm elections and took several key governorships, including Texas. The result could curb President Trump's policies, which combined business tax cuts with tariffs and the war in Iran, contributing to higher inflation. S&P 500 futures rose 1.1%, while Nasdaq-100 gained only 0.4% as AI-linked stocks came under pressure. Trump told the New York Times he was “fully prepared” to accept the results and said he and Republican lawmakers would work with Democrats, while Walmart rose 2%, Bank of America 1.9%, UnitedHealth 1.4% and Molina Healthcare 6.3%. Investors remain wary of possible restrictions on data center construction, as Gina Hinojosa, who pledged to pause new data center projects, won the Texas governor's race.

- Democrats Have Retaken the House and Senate -- but There's an Even Bigger Winner Today
According to the Associated Press, Democrats have taken control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, and President Trump will work with a Democrat-led Congress starting in early January. The article notes that a divided Congress is unlikely to pass major tax and spending bills, but could complicate debt-ceiling talks in 2027 and raise the risk of a lengthy government shutdown, while Democrats favor stricter AI rules such as limiting data center expansion. Prediction markets put Democratic control at 94% for the House and 77% for the Senate, while UBS assigns a 50% probability to Democrats winning both chambers. Citing Retirement Researcher, the article says the S&P 500 has averaged 16.63% annual gains since 1926 under a Democratic president and a divided Congress, versus 7.33% under a Republican president and a split Congress. The article argues that company operations and innovation, rather than political outcomes, are the main drivers of long-term investor returns.
- There's a 99% Chance That Democrats Retake the House, and History Says This Shift Will Have a Huge Impact on Stocks
According to prediction market Kalshi, as of 8:50 p.m. ET the odds of Democrats retaking the House had risen above 99%, meaning President Trump would likely face a divided Congress from January 2027. A Retirement Researcher review of S&P 500 returns from 1926 through 2023 found an average annual return of 7.33% during 34 years of divided Congress with a Republican president, compared with 16.63% during 15 years of divided Congress with a Democratic president. The article notes that gridlock would make major tax and spending legislation hard to pass, while debt-ceiling talks would be harder. UBS puts the chance of a Democratic sweep of both chambers at 50%. Still, Carson Group's Ryan Detrick notes that the six months after midterm elections have historically been strong, and the S&P 500 hasn't been down in the six- or 12-month period after a midterm over the last 75 years.
- President Donald Trump Claims He'll "Veto Everything" if Democrats Retake Congress, and It Has Big Implications for the Stock Market
Polymarket traders put the chance at 89% (as of 7 p.m. ET) that Democrats will sweep both the House and Senate, while Republicans hold 218 of 435 House seats and 53 of 100 Senate seats. Trump told Fox News “I guess I'll become Mr. Veto” if a Democratic-led Congress takes shape. The article notes that a divided Congress could keep major tax and spending legislation off the table, but could also create friction over the debt ceiling (forecast to be reached in the first half of 2027), raise shutdown risk and spark disputes over AI regulation. Citing Retirement Researcher, it says the S&P 500's average annual return is 7.33% under a Republican president facing a divided Congress, versus 14.01% to 16.63% in other scenarios, while the index has been higher six and 12 months after every midterm election over the last 75 years.
- Defense, healthcare, crypto and AI: How the midterm election could affect stocks
Several large U.S. companies depend heavily on Washington: about 70% of Lockheed Martin's sales come from the U.S. government, and Medicaid accounts for three-quarters of Molina Healthcare's premium revenue. A Democratic win in either chamber of Congress would give the party power to investigate companies, challenge federal spending and demand concessions, though President Trump would keep his veto and broad authority over tariffs and regulation. A Morgan Stanley analysis found the S&P 500 gained an average of 23% in the year after midterms under Republican presidents when Congress was split, versus 16% when Democrats controlled both chambers, though some analysts caution against assuming the pattern will repeat. Democrats have already sought records from donors to Trump's White House ballroom, and the 2025 tax and spending law is projected to cut federal Medicaid spending by $911 billion through 2034, a change that could pressure Molina, whose Medicaid revenue reached $32.2 billion in 2025.
- Donald Trump will be humiliated within days , but the midterm elections will be good news for share prices , says HAMISH MCRAE
Columnist Hamish McRae argues that the US midterm elections, nine days away, are likely to be good for share prices even though Democrats may win the House. The S&P 500 has risen in every 12-month period after midterms since 1950, averaging a 15% gain, with the largest rise at 43% after 1954 and the smallest at 3% after 1986, a period that included the Black Monday crash of October 19, 1987. He notes that Wall Street tends to favour a divided Congress and that S&P 500 member earnings are up 29% year on year. For the UK, London shares tend to follow New York, since Britain accounts for about 3% of global equities versus more than half for the US, and UK investors typically hold more than half of their equity holdings in US stocks.
- Prediction: The Stock Market Will Soar After Midterm Elections
The author predicts the stock market will soar in the months after the midterm elections on Nov. 3 in the U.S., though he has plenty of reservations about the current market, particularly given AI and the bull market nearing its fourth year. According to JPMorgan, since 1950 the S&P 500 has been positive over the 12 months following every midterm election, with an average gain of roughly 15%, but since the turn of the century the index has rarely hit that average. Kalshi gives Democrats over a 91% chance of reclaiming the House and a 67% chance of taking the Senate. The author says a Democratic-controlled Congress could make it harder for President Donald Trump to continue the Iran war, and a quicker end would reopen the Strait of Hormuz and bring gas prices and inflation down, though such a Congress may oppose data centers critical to AI. He also argues that political gridlock could limit major legislation that catches the market off guard, since Trump retains veto power.

- Prologis CEO says warehouse demands are shifting fast. Here's how he's keeping up
A Prologis survey of more than 1,800 business leaders in the US, UK, Germany, India, China and Mexico found that 91% say retailers and logistics providers urgently need more decentralized fulfillment networks. The share of companies planning to keep their existing global footprint fell 14 percentage points from a year earlier to 36%, as speed now ranks above price in gaining a competitive edge. Power reliability ranks first in logistics location decisions, and CEO Dan Letter said Prologis has built an energy business with over 1.4 gigawatts of solar and storage power. Letter said the company focuses on consumption centers and has sold over 200 million feet of its 1.3 billion feet portfolio because customers no longer wanted it. Around three-quarters of surveyed companies plan big investments in AI demand forecasting and inventory replenishment.
- Post-election gridlock might be a bullish sign for Apple, memory prices
Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi sees post-midterm moves in the AI sector as a positive signal for Apple, arguing that its large cash flow could make it a defensive play. His bigger point is that a slowdown in hyperscaler data center builds, driven by new leaders in key AI states, could eventually ease memory chip prices, though he said this would not affect Apple's next quarter. Apple's new CEO John Turris said memory pricing is unprecedented and expects even higher memory costs in the December quarter, partly offset by price increases on Mac, iPad and iPhone. Sozzi says that if memory costs ease while Apple keeps its higher product prices, this could be a major win for Apple over the next 12 to 18 months. He stresses that this is a long-term view and that memory costs will not fall overnight.

- AMD Just Doubled Its Own Long-Term Growth Target for 2027
AMD CEO Lisa Su said on the third-quarter earnings call that she expects 2027 revenue to grow more than 80%, more than twice AMD's long-term financial model, though that compares a one-year target with a multi-year model. Data center is expected to exceed 80% of 2027 revenue, up from 64% in the third quarter, when revenue reached $13.377 billion, and fourth-quarter revenue is guided to about $17.0 billion, plus or minus 3%. GAAP EPS was $1.46 and non-GAAP EPS $2.09, but a customer warrant charge will dilute shareholders once vesting and exercise conditions are met. Free cash flow fell to $554M while inventory rose to $11.463B, and Su expects PC unit shipments to decline by a double-digit percentage in 2027. Shares closed at $483.90 on November 3, up 3.65% but down 23.66% in the month before the report, and the next tests are NVIDIA's November 17 report and AMD's fourth-quarter results.
- Navitas Soars 6% as AI Infrastructure Pivot Delivers Revenue Beat: “Breaking the Power Wall”
Navitas Semiconductor (NVTS) shares rose 6% after third-quarter revenue of $14.0 million beat the $13.17 million consensus, and fourth-quarter guidance of $16.0 million at the midpoint topped the $15.12 million estimate. The company expects AI infrastructure to exceed 40% of fourth-quarter sales as mobile chips, most of last year's revenue, nearly disappear by year-end. It now guides 2026 revenue to $49.1 million, above the $47.7 million consensus, and expects AI infrastructure revenue to grow about 3x in 2027. The article notes Navitas trades at 34x forward sales, above its three-year average of 31x, so part of the 2027 growth is already reflected in the share price. NVIDIA's November 17 report will be the next read on 800-volt timing.
