Night Sky December 2025: Geminid Meteor Shower Peak Tonight, Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS, and the Best Stargazing Dates

Updated: December 14, 2025 December’s night sky is delivering exactly what skywatchers hope for: long hours of darkness, bright planets, and two headline-grabbing celestial events arriving back-to-back. First, the Geminid meteor shower—often called the year’s most reliable “shooting star” show—peaks across the night of December 13–14 with minimal moonlight for much of the prime viewing window. NASA Science+2EarthSky+2 Then, as the month heads toward the December solstice, attention shifts to a rarer visitor: interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, which makes its closest approach to Earth on December 19, 2025—still very far away, but scientifically thrilling and a legitimate observing target for telescopes.

How to Invest in Crypto in 2025: A Step‑by‑Step Guide to Bitcoin, Ethereum, ETFs, and Safer Storage

How to Invest in Crypto in 2025: A Step‑by‑Step Guide to Bitcoin, Ethereum, ETFs, and Safer Storage

Bitcoin’s 2025 ride has been a reminder that “mainstream” doesn’t mean “stable.” Prices have swung sharply this year—Euronews noted Bitcoin’s October high around $125,000 and early‑December moves around the mid‑$80,000s to low‑$90,000s—while Ethereum and other major tokens have also faced steep pullbacks. euronews+1 At the same time, the infrastructure around crypto is rapidly changing. In the U.S., regulators are opening more doors for banks and regulated firms to participate in parts of crypto markets—while lawmakers have also pushed major new rules for stablecoins and continued debating broader crypto “market structure” legislation.

Crypto Millennials: Bitcoin’s $90K Whiplash, ETF-Driven Forecasts, and the Week Banks Moved Closer to Crypto

Crypto Millennials: Bitcoin’s $90K Whiplash, ETF-Driven Forecasts, and the Week Banks Moved Closer to Crypto

From student-loan repayments and childcare costs to buying a first home (or deciding they can’t), millennials are juggling the most complex “adult money” era in decades. And yet, crypto remains one of the most millennial financial habits—part conviction, part rebellion, part hedge, part FOMO. The past week (December 8–14, 2025) delivered a snapshot of why: crypto prices swung hard, big-name forecasts got cut, and regulators nudged traditional banking deeper into digital assets—all while social platforms continued to shape how younger adults learn (and mislearn) money. If you’re a millennial building wealth, the message from this week’s headlines is clear: crypto is

Crypto Mining Weekly (Dec 8–14, 2025): Bitcoin Hashrate Stays Above 1 ZH/s as Miners Pivot to AI, Renewables, and Survival Mode

Crypto Mining Weekly (Dec 8–14, 2025): Bitcoin Hashrate Stays Above 1 ZH/s as Miners Pivot to AI, Renewables, and Survival Mode

Dec. 14, 2025 — For years, the crypto-mining story has been told as a race: more machines, cheaper power, bigger facilities, higher hashrate. This week (Dec. 8–14), the story shifted into something sharper—and more consequential for the future of proof-of-work. Bitcoin mining is still a global-scale industrial business. But multiple signals—from hardware launches and miner financials to grid-policy debates and Wall Street positioning—suggest the industry is entering a new phase: mining as an optional workload, competing directly with AI data centers for power, real estate, capital, and public tolerance. Below is what mattered most in crypto mining this week, why it matters,

Telecom & Digital Infrastructure US Stocks: Week Ahead After Fed Cut, Wireless Pricing Shock, and AI Data Center Power Scramble (Updated Dec. 14, 2025)

Telecom & Digital Infrastructure US Stocks: Week Ahead After Fed Cut, Wireless Pricing Shock, and AI Data Center Power Scramble (Updated Dec. 14, 2025)

Updated Sunday, December 14, 2025. The week ahead for Telecom & Digital Infrastructure US stocks is shaping up to be a tug-of-war between rate-sensitive valuation tailwinds (after the Fed’s latest cut), an intensifying wireless pricing and switching battle (led by fresh Verizon discounts and AT&T–T-Mobile legal crossfire), and the still-booming—but increasingly scrutinized—AI data center buildout that’s colliding with power availability, financing costs, and tenant credit risk. For investors tracking US-listed bellwethers like AT&T (T), Verizon (VZ), T-Mobile (TMUS), tower REITs American Tower (AMT) and Crown Castle (CCI), and data-center infrastructure leaders such as Equinix (EQIX) and Digital Realty (DLR), the

EV & Clean Energy Leaders: US Stocks Week Ahead (Dec. 15–19, 2025) — Tesla, Rivian, NextEra, Solar and Grid Tech in Focus

Updated: December 14, 2025 US-listed EV and clean energy leaders enter the new week with a rare mix of tailwinds and tripwires: a fresh Federal Reserve rate cut that should support long-duration growth stocks, a catch-up “data deluge” after the fall government shutdown, and a policy backdrop that’s now the single biggest swing factor for renewables and EV demand. The story of Dec. 8–14 wasn’t just about individual tickers—it was about the new hierarchy of catalysts: (1) US demand signals after the EV tax-credit reset, (2) whether Big Tech’s power appetite accelerates clean power buildouts or pulls capital toward gas

Updated: December 14, 2025Coverage window for this report: December 8–14, 2025 Wall Street heads into the week of Dec. 15, 2025 with U.S. healthcare and pharma mega-caps back in the spotlight—pulled by three powerful forces that all intensified in the last seven days: (1) the obesity-drug arms race, (2) Washington’s policy crosscurrents around insurance subsidies and PBM transparency, and (3) a faster-moving FDA that is simultaneously accelerating reviews and reopening safety scrutiny in sensitive pediatric categories.

Energy Supermajors US Stocks Week Ahead: Exxon, Chevron, Shell, BP and TotalEnergies Brace for 2026 “Oil Glut” Narratives (Updated Dec. 14, 2025)

Energy supermajors enter the new week with investors torn between two powerful forces: near-term “oversupply” pressure in crude and a steady drumbeat of company-specific catalysts—strategy resets, offshore deal-making, and portfolio moves that can matter as much as oil itself. As U.S. markets reopen on Monday, Dec. 15, the main U.S.-listed supermajors are coming off a choppy commodity week: Exxon Mobil (XOM) $118.82, Chevron (CVX) $149.99, Shell (SHEL) $72.33, BP (BP) $35.26, and TotalEnergies (TTE) $65.75 at the latest close (Friday, Dec. 12).

Defense and aerospace majors head into the week of December 15–19, 2025 with three powerful forces colliding: a new U.S. rate-cut backdrop, a Washington policy catalyst as Congress races toward year-end, and a fast-moving shift in Pentagon priorities toward AI-enabled procurement and production speed. The result is a sector that still looks “defensive” in name, but is increasingly being traded like a mix of industrial momentum + geopolitical hedge + technology platform.

Updated Sunday, December 14, 2025 — U.S. big bank and financial-giant stocks head into the new week with momentum from a post‑Fed rally, but with a fresh set of catalysts that could quickly reset expectations: a delayed U.S. jobs report, key inflation data, and year‑end positioning that often amplifies moves in rate‑sensitive sectors. Reuters+1 From JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and Bank of America (BAC) to Citigroup (C), Wells Fargo (WFC), Goldman Sachs (GS), BlackRock (BLK), and the payments giants, investors are weighing a familiar question in a new rate regime: will easing monetary policy compress bank margins faster than it revives

Updated Sunday, December 14, 2025 (market data through the Dec. 12 close). US cybersecurity stocks head into the new week after a volatile stretch that mixed a dovish Federal Reserve rate cut with a sudden risk-off pulse in megacap tech—an uncomfortable combination for a sector that often trades like “defensive growth.” The result: investors are still rewarding high-quality recurring revenue and platform narratives, but they’re also getting more selective on valuation, guidance tone, and “AI spending” second-order effects.

U.S.-listed consumer tech and electronics stocks head into the week of Dec. 15–19 with two narratives fighting for control: holiday demand on the ground, and macro + AI sentiment in the market. Last week (Dec. 8–14) delivered a reminder that even in a strong year for risk assets, “big theme” trades can wobble fast.
