Times of IndiaAI stocks: Midterm elections could threaten AI trade as data center backlash grows
Public opposition to US data centers and the November midterm elections could reshape AI infrastructure investment. Increased regulatory scrutiny, rising electricity costs and construction delays may pressure technology stocks, utilities and power infrastructure companies, despite continued strong AI spending.
A Democratic victory on November 3 could slow down an expansion of data centers. It is estimated that by 2027 the costs associated with these centers and the AI will exceed billion dollars.
The opposition to energy consumption and the local impact of data centers adds to the risks that investors monitor prior to the mid-term elections in the United States. Although analysts do not expect a law that drastically slows down works, a Democratic Congress could increase hearings and investigations, and alter timelines and costs for AI expansion.
