The Guardian reported that US stocks lost $3.2 trillion in a day of "chaotic trading," leading to declining markets across the Asia-Pacific region and Europe. Both outlets connected the financial downturn to the results of the United States midterm elections, with The Guardian noting that the market slide followed a Democratic triumph that contributed to fears of an artificial intelligence slowdown.
