In a report, KaiCatcher macroeconomist Joe Maher stated that even if market concerns about the political outlook in the United States prove to be excessive and the stock market rebounds in the short term, the U.S. stock market may still struggle to return to the early October highs.He pointed out that the catalyst for the overnight market sell-off seems to be investors' worries that Democrats may seek to regulate the artificial intelligence industry and limit data center construction, both at the congressional level and at the state level.Maher noted that the market sentiment towards artificial intelligence trades had already shown signs of weakness, and the U.S. stock market has exhibited many typical characteristics of a late-cycle phase. Therefore, this event could potentially serve as a triggering factor, leading to a longer-lasting retreat in the artificial intelligence stock boom.

Jeff Park, a partner at ParaFi Capital and an advisor to Bitwise and Solana, stated that the artificial intelligence company Anthropic is facing failure due to extreme asset-liability mismatches in its business model, requiring substantial equity support to maintain credit and cover massive non-cancelable computing power commitments.Jeff Park cited the example of the "confidence game" in the cryptocurrency market, pointing out that if the company's stock price does not rise significantly after its IPO, it will fall into a death spiral. He believes the best outcome is for the company to fail and be acquired, or for the U.S. government to collaborate with sovereign funds from the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and others for an international bailout to restore market confidence.

According to Cointelegraph, SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci stated that Trump's cryptocurrency business and meme coin issuance caused the CLARITY Act to lose support from the Democrats, weakening the bipartisan momentum of the bill. He claimed that the related meme coins were launched before Trump's inauguration in January 2025, which is one of the reasons for the bill's obstruction.Scaramucci also pointed out that there are differences between lawmakers and the White House regarding ethical restrictions: lawmakers want to strengthen the limitations on government officials' interests in cryptocurrency assets, while the White House is reluctant to sign related provisions. He stated that both sides should take responsibility for the failure to advance negotiations.On September 15, the U.S. Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act, with the procedural motion receiving 49 votes in favor and 50 votes against, falling short of the required 60 votes.

According to Jinshi, John Luke Tanner, portfolio manager and head of fixed income at Aptus Capital Advisors, stated in a report that after the Democratic Party made progress in the gubernatorial elections, the market still needs to pay attention to whether AI capital expenditures and data center construction will be affected, or if they will simply shift to states with more favorable government policies.Tanner indicated that he believes related investments will slow down, but the extent of the slowdown may not be as significant as the market is concerned about. When discussing whether the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates further, he stated that if the main pressure on inflation comes from energy prices and AI expenditures, then the 25 basis point hike in September is likely to be the last of this rate hike cycle. He also mentioned that government gridlock typically drags down GDP growth, which could open up space for further declines across the entire yield curve.

According to a report by the Korean News Agency, South Korean Finance Minister Lee Hyoung-il stated that the government plans to postpone the cryptocurrency capital gains tax originally scheduled for implementation in 2027 by two years to 2029 and will consult with the National Assembly to advance related legislation. The South Korean government explained that it plans to start exchanging virtual asset tax information with the United States in 2029, and taxing before this could put the domestic cryptocurrency market at a competitive disadvantage. This delay aims to improve the taxation mechanism for domestic and foreign transactions and enhance tax fairness.Under the current plan, the portion of individual annual cryptocurrency gains exceeding 2.5 million Korean won (approximately $1,869) will be subject to a tax rate of 22%. If the postponement plan is ultimately approved, this will be the fourth delay in implementation since South Korea first pushed for cryptocurrency capital gains taxation in 2020. In addition, the South Korean government also plans to study allowing investors to carry forward losses to offset future gains, proposing a three-year limit; at the same time, it will establish a government-business working group to improve the taxation details for different transaction scenarios and promote the legislation of the digital asset bill. The government plans to submit relevant amendments to the National Assembly during the regular session in 2027.

According to LatePost, Yang Tianzhen, the founder of Yixin Entertainment, and Jiang Shanshan, the former head of Alibaba's Frontier Technology Investment, jointly established a venture capital firm, Helios Venture, focusing on cutting-edge technologies such as AI, embodied intelligence, nuclear fusion, and brain-computer interfaces. The two have clear divisions of labor, with Jiang Shanshan responsible for investments and Yang Tianzhen handling investor relations, content, and brand building.Jiang Shanshan previously served as the Managing Director of Alibaba's Strategic Investment Department. In the past three years, she led investments in over a dozen cutting-edge technology projects at Alibaba, with a total investment amount exceeding 10 billion RMB, including projects like The Dark Side of the Moon, the robotics company Sharpa, and the nuclear fusion company Nova Fusion. In August of this year, she left Alibaba and began preparing her own fund. Their collaboration originated from Jiang Shanshan seeking advice from Yang Tianzhen on how to establish influence for the new fund, leading Yang Tianzhen to propose a joint venture.Jiang Shanshan believes that after leaving Alibaba, the new fund must establish its own brand to compete with top institutions for quality startup projects. Yang Tianzhen will leverage her experience in talent management and content marketing to connect with entrepreneurs and provide support for brand communication and founder image management for the invested companies. The two also plan to jointly produce a technology podcast aimed at the general public. Jiang Shanshan summarizes their collaboration logic as investment capability being 1, with content being the subsequent 0. In terms of investment strategy, she prefers selective heavy investments and mentioned that she had reviewed hundreds of AI application companies without making any investments, believing that consumer-facing AI productivity tools and entertainment applications will likely be dominated by large companies or model companies in the future, while there may be more independent entrepreneurial opportunities in complex fields like enterprise-level AI agent infrastructure.
