UK Maritime Trade Operations Office: A tanker sailing eastward on the IRTC (International Recommended Transport Corridor) reports that six small boats are approaching from the starboard side.July 13 - At approximately 2 PM local time today (July 13), Sanaa International Airport in Yemen was attacked. Although the Houthi rebels, who control Sanaa, accused Saudi Arabia of carrying out the attack, the Yemeni Ministry of Defense stated that Yemeni armed forces struck the runway at Sanaa International Airport to prevent an Iranian aircraft from landing. Sanaa is currently controlled by the Houthis, while the Yemeni government, supported by Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, is based in Aden in the south.On July 13th, Barclays analysts noted in a report that, given rising oil prices, members of the Bank of Englands Monetary Policy Committee may signal a preference for interest rate hikes in the coming months. This comes after the US struck Iranian targets over the weekend, and Iran retaliated by attacking ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Analysts stated, "We believe that the escalating tensions in the Middle East and this weeks rise in oil prices will make the risk of further inflationary pressures a focus of the Monetary Policy Committees attention." LSEG data shows that the market has fully priced in a 25 basis point rate hike by the Bank of England in 2026, and expects a 28% probability of another 25 basis point hike before the end of the year.German Chancellor Merz: Germany and Europe face major challenges.Indias Ministry of Trade: Indias imports of oil, crude oil and refined petroleum products totaled $19.33 billion in June.

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.
