In a significant political shift, the Democratic Party has gained control of both chambers of Congress, surpassing expectations set by recent US midterm elections. This unexpected tilt in power fueled a rapid market recovery after an initial sell-off on election night. Futures tied to the Nasdaq 100 erased a 2.4% slump to post gains of 0.9%, surging approximately 929 points from their intraday low. Similarly, S&P 500 futures rose roughly 1%, while Dow Jones futures advanced by about 700 points.
