May 9th - The Ministry of Commerce will hold a special press conference on the APEC Trade Ministers Meeting at 15:00 on Saturday, May 9th, 2026, in the Ministrys press conference hall.On May 9th, it was reported that on May 8th, Ling Ji, Vice Minister of Commerce and Deputy Representative for International Trade Negotiations, met with Doumont, Director-General of the Treasury of the French Ministry of Economy, Finance and Industry, Energy and Digital Sovereignty. The two sides exchanged views on Sino-French and Sino-EU economic and trade relations. Ling Ji stated that under the strategic guidance of the two heads of state, Sino-French economic and trade cooperation has been continuously deepening, with diversified development in trade and investment. China is willing to work with France to implement the Memorandum of Understanding on Strengthening Sino-French Bilateral Investment, providing an open, fair, and non-discriminatory business environment for investment cooperation between enterprises of both sides. China is highly concerned about the series of foreign subsidy investigations launched by the EU against Chinese enterprises investment and trade, as well as the recently released draft amendments to the Industrial Accelerator Act and the Cybersecurity Act, among other trade and economic restrictive tools. China believes these constitute trade and investment barriers and institutional discrimination, which will seriously affect normal Sino-EU economic and trade cooperation and the stability of global supply chains. China hopes that France will play a positive role in promoting open markets within the EU and properly resolving Sino-EU economic and trade differences and frictions through dialogue and consultation.On May 9th, Futures News reported that from a macroeconomic perspective, Trumps primary objectives are to secure low-priced Middle Eastern oil, curb Irans nuclear program, and expand the dollars dominance in oil settlements, rather than perpetuating an energy price crisis. The likelihood of a macroeconomic upside is relatively high, but further analysis is needed. If the escalation of the US-Iran situation leads to a continued surge in oil prices and stagflation, the market will price gold as an inflation hedge and safe haven, thus boosting silver. However, weakness in the industrial sector will drag down silver, limiting its upside potential or causing a pullback. Conversely, if the Middle East situation does not lead to stagflation, and the Federal Reserve begins raising interest rates to mitigate inflation risks, silver will be under pressure. If US-Iran relations ease and the Strait of Hormuz resumes normal navigation, oil prices may fall significantly, and the market may price in a Fed rate cut this year, leading to an upward correction in silver prices. Overall, looking ahead to the second quarter, given the possibility of a breakthrough in the Middle East situation, the logic of a Fed rate hike this year may be disproven. Coupled with the supply and demand situation of regional market differentiation but persistent overall deficits, silver prices are likely to continue their moderate rise.On May 9th, NIO posted on social media to refute rumors that it had been summoned for questioning, stating that they were pure fabrication.On May 9th, JiKrs legal department posted on social media that they have recently noticed a group of social media accounts maliciously spreading information such as "eight new energy vehicle companies were summoned for talks," and using AI software to fabricate false information that JiKr had been "summoned for talks," which has greatly damaged JiKrs brand reputation.

5 Things to Know in Crypto Today – XRP Surges on SEC v Ripple Optimism

Cryptocurrency Prices Hold Following the US economy's indicator-driven slump

With a $4.3 billion gain on Sunday, the cryptocurrency market snapped a four-day losing trend to close the day at $905.6 billion. Notably, despite four straight days in the red, the cryptocurrency market also broke a three-week losing skid. The value of the cryptocurrency market rose by $20.9 billion.


With a gain of 18.7%, XRP was among the top performers over the week. Price support came from hope for a successful conclusion in the SEC v. Ripple lawsuit.


But US economic data and Fed monetary policy are putting investors' appetite for risky assets to the test. Bets on 75 basis point Fed rate increases in November and December were driven by ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI figures and Friday's US employment report.


The likelihood of a 75 basis point Fed rate increase in November was 78.1% this morning, up from 56.5% on September 30. Notably, the likelihood of a 75-basis point increase in December has increased to 22.6% from 0% on September 30.


The IMF/World Bank Meetings will generate a lot of market attention later today. The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have issued warnings about the effects of central banks raising interest rates at the same time.

XRP Receives Support Due to Newfound Hope in the SEC v. Ripple Case

XRP increased by 2.87% on Sunday, closing the week up 18.7% at $0.5320. However, the overall crypto market value only saw a slight 2.36% growth. Investor hope for a successful resolution of the SEC v. Ripple lawsuit has lessened the impact of Fed concern on XRP price movement.


A crucial court decision has encouraged rumors that Ripple will win or, in the worst event, that the SEC would agree to a settlement. Expectations of a Ripple win were raised when the Court earlier this month overturned the SEC's argument to the Court's denial of the SEC's effort to shield the papers connected to the William Hinman speech under the attorney-client privilege.


Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) are not securities, according to William Hinman, Division of Corporation Finance, in a well-known 2018 lecture.


A Ripple response to an SEC objection to two amicus brief petitions fueled more XRP price support. The filings provide a new perspective on XRP that could not support the designation of XRP as a security. In a letter to the court, the defendants were forthright, concluding that the SEC had no business initiating this case in the first place if it couldn't assess the validity of such accusations.


In the end, it could depend on the Hinman documents. The general assumption is that the SEC will ultimately have to provide up the papers, despite the fact that it may appeal the Court's ruling. The consensus is that the SEC will try to reach a settlement at that point rather than allow the documents to be made available to the public.
