The entry stamp can be stamped anywhere in the passport, not just on or close to the visa. It has no effect on your status in the US
The visa validity shows how long you can use the visa for entry (since it’s a multiple-entry visa, you can visit as many times as you want during that period)
The date on the entry stamp shows when you have to finish that specific visit.
The location of the entry stamp has absolutely no meaning.
US immigration staff will normally put the stamp on the page opposite the visa, but it is not uncommon for them to put it partially on the visa page, or even on a completely different page.
My current US visa has 3 entry stamps that partially cover the visa page, 3 that are entirely on the opposite page, and several that are on different pages and none of these have ever caused me any issues when re-entering the country.
