Market Cools as Nvidia’s Blowout Earnings Fail to Ignite Futures

  U.S. stock futures were mixed Thursday morning as investors digested Nvidia’s latest blockbuster earnings—results that impressed on paper but didn’t translate into broad market enthusiasm. Dow futures edged slightly higher, while S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures hovered near the flatline, reflecting a cautious mood across Wall Street. Nvidia delivered strong beats on quarterly revenue and profit, along with guidance that topped expectations.

UK Police Prepare for More Far-Right Unrest After Another Night of Riots

 

 Police across the United Kingdom are gearing up for further violence this weekend following another night of rioting by far-right protesters. The latest unrest saw three officers hospitalized after a tense stand-off outside a mosque in northeast England.

The city of Sunderland has been particularly affected, with far-right demonstrators rampaging through the streets, setting cars and buildings on fire. The protests were sparked by misinformation surrounding a mass stabbing that resulted in the deaths of three young girls. False rumors about the attacker’s identity, linking him to the Muslim and immigrant communities, have fueled the anger of far-right supporters.

In response, police have increased their presence and are preparing for more than 20 protests expected over the weekend in cities including Belfast, Cardiff, Liverpool, and Manchester. Authorities are also deploying surveillance and facial recognition technology to manage the situation.

The Muslim Council of Britain has expressed concerns about the safety of Islamic places of worship, prompting many mosques to strengthen their security measures. Counter-protests are also anticipated, with organizations like Stand Up To Racism rallying against Islamophobia and the far-right.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced the formation of a national policing unit to crack down on violent protesters, emphasizing that those involved in the disorder will face severe consequences.

As tensions remain high, the UK braces for a challenging weekend ahead.
