Sharp declines were recorded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange following the "blue wave" in the US midterm elections. The TA-35 index fell by 3.69%, extending a 1.96% drop from the previous day.

The Nasdaq index plummeted by 3.7%, the S&P 500 decreased by 2.1%, and the Dow Jones lost 1.1%. The VIX fear index surged 23% to 20.5 points.
