There are signs that the U.S. stock market has peaked, including a sell-off of technology stocks.
Recently, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), a leading U.S. economic magazine, reported that pension funds, which are representative institutional investors in the U.S., are withdrawing funds from stocks and investing in bonds. When a pension fund sells stocks and buys bonds, it is a typical sign of a peak in stock prices.
As if to prove this fact, a sell-off of technology stocks occurred in the U.S. stock market on the 19th (local time).
On this day, tensions in the Middle East did not have a significant impact on the market, with international oil prices only rising slightly. However, interest rate uncertainty led to a sell-off in large technology stocks, causing the Nasdaq to plummet by more than 2%.
As there are concerns that an interest rate hike will not occur within the year, and the possibility of further delay in interest rate cuts increases, there has been a sell-off in technology stocks, which are relatively sensitive to interest rates and have risen significantly so far.

Bitcoin Halving Completed: This Is What The BTC…
• Bitcoin halving completed
• 840,000 block set
• This is how the BTC price reacts
It’s the event the crypto community has been looking forward to for months: the Bitcoin halving. The event, firmly anchored in the code of the cryptocurrency, will see the reward that Bitcoin miners receive for continuing the blockchain and verifying transactions for each new block set reduced by half. The mechanism is triggered every time 210,000 new blocks are placed on the chain. The recent halving is the fourth in the history of Bitcoin. From now on, miners will only receive 3,125 BTC when they add a new block to the chain. However, the total Bitcoin supply is limited to 21 million coins, after which no new tokens will be issued.
On the night of Friday to Saturday the time had come and the 840,000 block was added to the Bitcoin blockchain. The Bitcoin price initially reacted to the halving with a plus, but is currently down 1.36 percent to $63,884.68 via CoinMarketCap.

Panic In Paris: Strong Operation By A Man…
A man entered the Iranian consulate in Paris this Friday with fake explosives and caused panic in the French capital, amid the escalation of tension in the Middle East.
According to first reports, the man was seen today at 11 a.m. entering the Iranian consulate on rue de Fresnel, in the 16th arrondissement.
Minutes later he left the consulate. The special forces police questioned him outside the consulate and assured that he was not carrying explosives on his body. Firefighters surrounded the diplomatic building. It is not known whether or not it is a terrorist act. The area remains completely closed.
The police entered the building to find out whether or not there are explosives. A sensitive fact because by diplomatic convention it is Iranian territory and there is no ambassador from that country in France.
The event occurred hours after the Israeli attack on Iran and when the domestic situation in Iran against the mullahs’ regime is highly conflictive.
“Today, around eleven in the morning, a single witness saw a man enter the Iranian consulate on rue de Fresnel, in Paris 16, carrying a grenade or an explosive vest,” a source from the security headquarters had noted.

William F. Pepper, Controversial Advocate For Martin Luther…
Exploring the Complexities of Martin Luther King Jr.’s Assassination and William F. Pepper’s Controversial Claims The Passing of William F. Pepper – A Legacy of Controversy
William F. Pepper, a prominent lawyer and central figure in the decades-long pursuit to uncover the truth behind the assassination of the revered civil rights leader, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., passed away on April 7 in Manhattan. He was 86. Pepper’s controversial stance, challenging the official narrative of a lone gunman responsible for Dr. King’s death, earned him both praise and skepticism throughout his career.
Pepper, surviving on the fringes of mainstream thought, garnered a dedicated following within the subculture of conspiracy theorists. His efforts to keep the case alive extended across various domains, from courtrooms and media platforms to authoring three books. However, his claims often failed to withstand scrutiny and were widely dismissed by experts, including historians and journalists.
The Single Gunman Theory – A Fractured Narrative
The prevailing theory asserts that James Earl Ray acted alone when he shot and killed Dr. King in Memphis on April 4, 1968. Ray, apprehended two months later, pled guilty to avoid the death penalty. This apparent closure,
