Weekly market update - 06-10-2026 US shares fell sharply over the last week as the Democrat wins in the midterm elections renewed fears about tighter regulation of AI adding to worries about an AI bubble and leading to a sharp rout in AI related tech shares leaving the US share market on track for 2.7% fall. This also dragged Japanese and other Asian share markets down sharply. Eurozone shares managed a small rise though. Australian shares also rose managing a gain of around 0.8% helped by its relatively low exposure to AI related shares and less hawkishness from the RBA after its latest rate hike.
