Midterm election results and strong cloud demand sent two of the biggest names in tech near intraday records Amazon and Microsoft added close to $445 billion in combined market value in a single morning on November 4, 2026. The move came the day after the US midterm elections, in which Democrats won control of both the House and the Senate. Investors appear to have looked at the results and decided the two cloud giants were among the winners. Amazon shares climbed between approximately 7% and 7.7% during the session. Microsoft rose by about 5% to 7%.
