Nvidia Faces Market Challenges, Analysts Call For Strategic Buying Opportunity

A bomb explosion outside the American Reproductive Centers fertility clinic in Palm Springs, California, on May 17, 2025, resulted in the death of 25-year-old Guy Bartkus, who allegedly had connections to antinatalism, an ideology opposing procreation. According to the FBI’s Los Angeles field office, Bartkus targeted the clinic in a calculated act of terrorism that injured five individuals and caused significant property damage. Investigators uncovered Bartkus’ online presence hinting at nihilistic beliefs, with writings suggesting he viewed himself as "anti-life." Notably, he expressed motivations to minimize human suffering, aligning with promortalist viewpoints. Officials noted that the attack was possibly motivated by Bartkus's rejection of life and pro-creation efforts, raising concerns about the influence of online nihilism on violent actions in the U.S. and Europe. This incident follows a report by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) that links nihilistic ideologies to several violent acts and warns of a growing trend in the normalization of such beliefs among younger demographics, potentially signaling a need for preventive measures against similar future attacks.

Bitcoin reached an all-time high of over $111,000 on Thursday, continuing its remarkable bull run in 2025, despite declines in US stock markets, particularly the tech-heavy Nasdaq. Analysts attribute this surge to heightened institutional interest, with significant inflows into bitcoin investment products amounting to $557 million last week, raising year-to-date totals to $7.5 billion, according to Nexo Dispatch analyst Iliya Kalchev. Regulatory developments in the United States are also bolstering market confidence. The GENIUS Act, aimed at providing a regulatory framework for stablecoins, advanced in the Senate, potentially alleviating compliance concerns for cryptocurrency firms. Lane Rettig, head of research at Near Foundation, emphasized the importance of ensuring regulatory clarity without imposing excessive burdens on startups. Supply dynamics contribute significantly to Bitcoin's price rise, as reserves on centralized exchanges have dwindled to historic lows. Data from CryptoQuant indicates that 7,206 BTC were withdrawn from exchanges in the last 24 hours alone. With ongoing demand and reduced supply, analysts expect Bitcoin's rally may continue, with Standard Chartered forecasting prices could eventually reach $200,000.

A tragic incident unfolded in Masonville, New York, where 33-year-old Drew Garnier fatally stabbed his pregnant wife, Samantha Garnier, after learning they were expecting another girl, according to the Delaware County District Attorney's Office. The attack, which occurred in September 2024, also left their two daughters, Izzie, 6, and Adelina, 9, seriously injured. The father of the victim, Gregory Vernagallo, expressed his grief in court, stating that Garnier's actions stemmed from the disappointment of not having a son. The newborn girl was reportedly due just weeks before Samantha's 30th birthday. Following the domestic violence incident, Garnier was arrested and later pleaded guilty to first-degree homicide, resulting in a 30-year prison sentence along with a 15-year supervised release. As part of the sentence, Garnier is prohibited from visiting his daughters until 2056 unless they choose to override this restriction. Vernagallo has since adopted the girls, affirming his commitment to providing them with a loving home despite the tragedy.
