Wall Street faced a dramatic selloff with technology stocks plummeting due to growing concerns about artificial intelligence spending. Investors reevaluated popular AI-related trades after midterm election results suggested potential tougher scrutiny in the industry. The Nasdaq dropped more than 5%, marking its worst session in 18 months and entering correction territory. The selloff spread to Asian markets, leading to declines in Japan’s Nikkei and South Korea’s Kospi.
