As election results came in on Tuesday evening, stock market futures tumbled.
Here’s what the initial markets reporting looked like:
Stock futures fall on speculation Democrats to win big in midterms, slow data center buildout - CNBC
US stock futures tumble as Democrats score key midterm election wins - Fox Business
Stock Futures Drop as Investors Weigh Democratic Gains - Wall Street Journal
US stock futures fall as investors weigh a midterm shake-up in Washington - Business Insider
Of course, the commentary on social media was far more aggressive about how bad things could get, given the developments identified in those headlines.
But then things turned around.
