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.

UN Halts Aid Shipments Through Gaza’s Main Crossing Over Safety Concerns

 

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) has announced the suspension of aid deliveries through the Kerem Shalom crossing, Gaza's primary cargo route, citing severe safety concerns. Philippe Lazzarini, the head of UNRWA, stated that the decision was made due to the threat posed by armed gangs who have looted recent aid convoys.

The suspension comes amid a deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, exacerbated by the cold, rainy winter and the ongoing conflict. Experts have already warned of potential famine in the northern parts of Gaza, which have been almost completely isolated by Israeli forces since early October.

Lazzarini pointed out that the route leading to Kerem Shalom has become too dangerous, with nearly 100 trucks being looted in mid-November and another smaller shipment stolen just recently. He also criticized Israeli policies, claiming they have contributed significantly to the breakdown of law and order in Gaza.

The suspension of aid shipments is expected to worsen the already dire situation in Gaza, where hundreds of thousands of Palestinians are living in squalid tent camps and relying heavily on international food aid.
