July 11 - According to data from Lighthouse Pro, as of 8:34 PM on July 11, the daily box office revenue of the domestic film market exceeded 300 million yuan, marking the first time since February 26 this year that the daily box office revenue has exceeded 300 million yuan.July 11th - According to the official WeChat account of Hangzhou Metro, due to the impact of Typhoon Bavi (No. 9), Hangzhou City has activated a Level I typhoon emergency response. Starting at 6:00 AM on July 12th, the entire metro network will be suspended, with the resumption time to be announced separately.On July 11, Claudio Descalzi, CEO of Eni, the Italian state-owned holding group, stated that if the Middle East conflict continues, the global oil market will break through the current range of approximately $80 to $100 per barrel by the first quarter of 2027 at the latest, pushing up inflation and reducing energy demand. In an interview published Saturday in Il Sole 24 Ore, Descalzi said that the release of strategic reserves has so far helped keep crude oil prices roughly within this range, but this strategy is facing increasing risks because global reserves are finite. “The long-term solution is to enhance energy security through the diversification of supply sources and routes,” he said. Descalzi noted that global oil inventories have fallen by an average of 3.8 million barrels per day due to disruptions related to the war with Iran that began at the end of February, accelerating to an average of 4.6 million barrels per day in May. He stated that countries should focus on producers in North Africa and sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia, while reducing reliance on controlled maritime routes.July 11th - Industry insiders stated that historically, during periods of high demand in the memory chip industry, manufacturers tend to simultaneously expand production capacity, leading to a concentrated release of new capacity, a price crash, and industry-wide losses. Subsequently, manufacturers collectively reduce capital expenditures, and when demand recovers, another boom occurs – this cycle constitutes the industrys unique cyclical pattern. Since reaching its peak in late June, US memory chip stocks have experienced a collective correction due to concerns about overcapacity, triggered by news such as Metas sale of computing power. Data shows that industry leaders such as SanDisk, Micron Technology, Seagate Technology, and Western Digital have all seen their stock prices fall by more than 20% in the past few weeks. Analysts point out that the underlying logic supporting current demand for memory chips is facing a reassessment, with the core variable being whether the technological gap between various AI large-scale models will continue to narrow. Analysts also pointed out that the memory chip industry is undergoing a profound change in its business model: in the past, memory was more like a commodity, with prices fluctuating with the market, and contracts were mostly on a quarterly or annual basis; now, cloud vendors and AI data centers are increasingly signing long-term supply agreements with original equipment manufacturers for three to five years, with price ranges, minimum purchase quantities, and customer deposits, in order to ensure critical supply.July 11 - Due to the impact of Typhoon Bavi, the ninth typhoon of this year, the Hangzhou Bay Bridge will be closed in both directions starting at 19:30 today, prohibiting all vehicles from passing through.

XRP and a Return to $0.50 Remains in the Hands of the SEC v Ripple Case

Wednesday saw a 2.99% decline in XRP. XRP lost 0.18% on Tuesday and closed the day at $0.45025. Notably, XRP missed $0.47 for the third session in a row.


Despite a tumultuous day's start, XRP reached an early high of $0.46579. XRP fell to a late low of $0.44533, falling short of the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $0.4690. At $0.4570, the First Major Support Level (S1) was breached by XRP, which finished the day at $0.45025.


The FOMC policy decision and press conference took center stage, pushing updates from the SEC v. Ripple lawsuit to the sidelines.


Counterparties take a break from filing amicus briefs while the Fed speaks.


On Wednesday, Amicus Brief filings were suspended. Investors must wait for SEC and Court responses on the filings after a series of requests and filings.


The Amicus filings show XRP uses that support the Defendants' position, and there has been substantial support for the Defendants; but, the Court would need to come to a same conclusion.


The SEC has chosen to hold off on making a statement until November 15 because it will not give up easily. The deadline for filing temporary under seal summary judgment reply papers is November 15.


The Fed now controls XRP since there have been no developments on the case. Prior to Fed Chair Powell sending riskier assets into the red, the first market response to the FOMC announcement drove XRP to an afternoon high. The markets had gambled on a December Fed Pivot before to the FOMC policy decision. Powell eliminated any doubt and emphasized the need to keep raising rates to combat inflation.


Later on today, attention will once again turn to US economic statistics, with the ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI and its sub-components expected to have the most impact.


Updates from the current SEC v. Ripple lawsuit will still provide XRP direction, however.
