ジェフリーズは、AIインフラ構築に巨額を投じるビッグテック企業にとって、分裂した政府が中間選挙の最良の結果になる可能性があるとの見方を示した。月曜のリポートで、ジェフリーズの調査チームは、分断された政府と、州レベルで細分化された規則ではなく国家としてのAI政策の見通しが、AIイノベーションの速いペースの継続を確実にし、規模の大きいプレーヤーに不釣り合いなほど恩恵をもたらすと記述した。同社が挙げるテックの最大の勝者には、どのAIモデルが勝ってもモデル非依存のプラットフォーム戦略で恩恵を受けるアマゾン、Gemini 4 Pro以降でAIモデル競争に追いつく時間をより多く得るアルファベット、企業のIT部門に広く浸透していることで企業からの信頼が最も高いマイクロソフト、データセンターの許認可や規制の障壁が緩和されれば極めて大きな上振れ余地を伴って4番目の企業向けクラウドの選択肢として台頭しつつあるオラクル、メガキャップのハイパースケーラーに代わる有力な選択肢として急速に認知されつつあるコアウィーブ、AIデータ基盤のトップ2ベンダーであるスノーフレーク、可観測性が最重要となる中でのデータドッグ、MuseとMeta Business Agentsによる消費者および中小企業の勢い回復を背景としたメタが含まれる。アナリストらは、戦後20回の中間選挙のうち18回で大統領の政党が下院議席を失ったと指摘し、トランプ氏の支持率が39%近く、無党派層が24%であることから、共和党の後退を予想している。2026年の中間選挙は11月3日に迫っており、有権者は下院全435議席と上院35議席を選ぶ。トルーイストのチーフストラテジスト、キース・ラーナー氏は、1946年以来の中間選挙の年はいずれもその後1年間の株価リターンがプラスで、最大の上昇は1954年選挙後の34%のリターン、平均の1年間の上昇率は14.4%だったと指摘した。
