White House Tech Panel Meeting Postponed Amid Market Turmoil
By Reuters
The Trump administration postponed a scheduled meeting of the White House tech panel on Friday, November 6, 2026, according to an Energy Department spokesperson. The panel, which includes Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, is part of the President’s Council of Advisers on Science and Technology. Other members are AMD CEO Lisa Su and Andreessen Horowitz co‑founder Marc Andreessen. The postponement comes after technology shares fell sharply on Thursday, November 5, 2026, amid concerns that a new Congress could slow AI development and doubts that the high capital costs of building AI infrastructure will deliver sufficient returns. The market volatility has increased scrutiny of the sector from both Silicon Valley executives and Washington policymakers. The White House has not yet provided a reason for the meeting’s delay.
