🔮BREAKING: $2,800,000,000,000 Wiped Out From the U.S. Stock Market

Wall Street suffered its worst day since April 2025 on Thursday, as the S&P 500 fell 4.4%, the Nasdaq plunged 5.5% into correction territory, and the Dow dropped 1,833 points. Chip stocks crashed about 12%, and an estimated $2.8 trillion in value was erased, as investors feared Democrats’ midterm wins could slow the data-center boom behind AI.

‱ The numbers: the S&P 500 fell 334.89 points (4.4%) to 7,353.73, the Dow fell 1,833.06 points (3.4%) to 51,523.06, and the Nasdaq fell 1,421.52 points (5.5%) to 24,315.00 — the worst day for all 3 indexes since April 2025

‱ A record of the wrong kind: the Nasdaq’s 1,422-point drop was its largest single-session point loss ever, and the index closed 11.9% below its October 6 record — a correction

‱ Chips led the fall: the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index sank about 12%, its worst day since March 2020; Nvidia fell about 9% and AMD about 17%

‱ The value wiped out: an estimated $2.8 trillion of S&P 500 market value was erased — an estimate, not an official tally; estimates during the day ranged from $2.0 to $2.8 trillion

‱ Why it happened: investors feared the Democrats’ midterm sweep could bring tighter scrutiny and pauses on data-center construction — Texas’s incoming governor backs a moratorium — while doubts grew over whether AI spending will pay off

‱ Toronto followed: the S&P/TSX composite fell 736.13 points (2.03%) to 35,605.27, as Canadian technology shares slid with Wall Street

‱ Friday’s fallout: the selloff spread across Asia, with South Korea’s Kospi down about 8% amid a trading halt and Japan’s Nikkei down about 6%; U.S. futures were mixed after the October jobs report

‱ Not the ‘largest loss in history’: viral posts claimed a record, but March 16, 2020 erased about $3.5 trillion — by percentage, Thursday was the worst day in 18 months, not in history

2,8 Billions $ Effacés De La Bourse Américaine

Wall Street a connu jeudi sa pire journĂ©e depuis avril 2025, alors que le S&P 500 a chutĂ© de 4,4 %, le Nasdaq a plongĂ© de 5,5 % en territoire de correction, et le Dow a perdu 1 833 points. Les valeurs des semi-conducteurs se sont effondrĂ©es d’environ 12 %, et une valeur estimĂ©e Ă  2,8 billions $ a Ă©tĂ© effacĂ©e, les investisseurs craignant que les victoires des dĂ©mocrates aux Ă©lections de mi-mandat ne ralentissent l’essor des centres de donnĂ©es derriĂšre l’IA.

‱ Les chiffres : le S&P 500 a perdu 334,89 points (4,4 %) pour clĂŽturer Ă  7 353,73, le Dow a perdu 1 833,06 points (3,4 %) Ă  51 523,06, et le Nasdaq a perdu 1 421,52 points (5,5 %) Ă  24 315,00 — la pire journĂ©e pour les 3 indices depuis avril 2025

‱ Un record du mauvais genre : la chute de 1 422 points du Nasdaq a Ă©tĂ© sa plus importante perte de points en une seule sĂ©ance de son histoire, et l’indice a clĂŽturĂ© Ă  11,9 % sous son record du 6 octobre — une correction

‱ Les semi-conducteurs ont menĂ© la chute : l’indice Philadelphia Semiconductor a plongĂ© d’environ 12 %, sa pire journĂ©e depuis mars 2020; Nvidia a chutĂ© d’environ 9 % et AMD d’environ 17 %

‱ La valeur effacĂ©e : environ 2,8 billions $ de valeur boursiĂšre du S&P 500 ont Ă©tĂ© effacĂ©s — une estimation, pas un bilan officiel; les estimations durant la journĂ©e allaient de 2,0 Ă  2,8 billions $

‱ Pourquoi c’est arrivĂ© : les investisseurs craignaient que le raz-de-marĂ©e dĂ©mocrate aux Ă©lections de mi-mandat n’entraĂźne un examen plus strict et des pauses dans la construction de centres de donnĂ©es — le futur gouverneur du Texas soutient un moratoire — tandis que les doutes grandissaient sur la rentabilitĂ© des dĂ©penses en IA

‱ Toronto a suivi : l’indice composĂ© S&P/TSX a perdu 736,13 points (2,03 %) pour clĂŽturer Ă  35 605,27, les valeurs technologiques canadiennes glissant avec Wall Street

‱ Les retombĂ©es de vendredi : la vente massive s’est propagĂ©e en Asie, le Kospi de la CorĂ©e du Sud perdant environ 8 % dans un contexte d’arrĂȘt des transactions et le Nikkei du Japon environ 6 %; les contrats Ă  terme amĂ©ricains Ă©taient mitigĂ©s aprĂšs le rapport sur l’emploi d’octobre

‱ Pas la « plus grande perte de l’histoire » : des publications virales ont prĂ©tendu Ă  un record, mais le 16 mars 2020 avait effacĂ© environ 3,5 billions $ — en pourcentage, jeudi a Ă©tĂ© la pire journĂ©e en 18 mois, pas de l’histoire
