🇯🇵 Takaichi to Visit Korean President’s Hometown to Strengthen Ties

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung and Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi will meet in the South Korean city of Andong next week, extending a highly personalized diplomatic exchange at a time of shifting dynamics between the US and China, and mounting uncertainty over regional security.

Takaichi will visit Lee’s hometown region of Andong in North Gyeongsang Province from May 19-20 at Lee’s invitation, according to a written statement from the presidential office. The visit comes after Lee traveled to Nara, Takaichi’s political home turf, earlier this year, marking what Seoul described as the first exchange of visits between the hometown regions of South Korean and Japanese leaders.

⚡️🇺🇸🇨🇳 Trump on China:

We made a lot of great trade deals, including over 200 planes from Boeing with a promise of 750 planes, which will be by far the largest order ever if they do a good job with the 200, which I'm sure they will.

And that's General Electric also, the engines. So they're buying General Electric.

So it's approximately 400–450 engines and 200 planes and a promise of up to 750 if they do a good job.

⚡️ G-7 to Discuss Bond Selloff Sending Yields to Multi-Decade Highs

Group of Seven finance chiefs are set to discuss the selloff in government bonds that’s sending yields on some benchmark securities to their highest levels in decades, with at least one member viewing the move as temporary.

Japanese Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama said Friday the G-7 are expected to talk about developments in bond markets at their May 18-19 gathering in Paris. She spoke a day after her nation’s 30-year government bond yields climbed to the highest since that tenor’s 1999 debut, while rates on 20- and 40-year debt also hit the highest in decades.

🧑‍⚖️🇧🇷 Rio de Janeiro Fuel Fraud Probe Sweeps Up Head of Refining Group

Brazil's federal police carried out search and seizure warrants against former Rio de Janeiro Governor Claudio Castro and ordered privately owned refinery Refit to halt operations in a tax evasion investigation, a Supreme Court decision showed.

The court ordered Refit's owner, ​businessman Ricardo Magro, who lives in the United States, to be arrested on pre-trial detention. As ​the country's tax authority has carried out investigations into financial crimes over the ⁠past year, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has publicly called on U.S. President Donald Trump ​to arrest Magro.

In the decision, Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered Magro to be put ​on Interpol's red notice list, alerting foreign law enforcement agencies to arrest him. The ruling also froze about 52 ​billion reais ($10.3 billion) in assets, most belonging to Refit which is one of Brazil's largest chronic tax debtors, with ‌tens ⁠of billions of reais owed to federal and state authorities.

🤑 Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse called the committee vote “the moment” in a post on X, saying the industry deserves “the same rules and protections as every other asset class.”

"The Senate Banking Committee is putting in the work as it moves the Clarity Act forward… incredible leadership! Millions of Americans are already in this market. Ripple stands behind this bill because they deserve the same rules and protections as every other asset class. If the largest economy in the world is going to lead on cryptoand it must — this is the moment. Let's get it done!" — Brad Garlinghouse wrote on X.


🟠Alexis Sirkia, an early Ripple and Ethereum market maker who now leads decentralized clearing firm Yellow Network told CoinDes that the "the real story of XRP in mid-2026 will not be its consolidating price, but the quiet, almost imperceptible rewiring of global finance."

"With legal clouds lifted and institutional capital proving remarkably sticky, the XRP Ledger is transforming into a compliance-grade tokenization and settlement layer, speaking the precise language that institutional capital does," — Sirkia added.


❗️The committee vote gave XRP a catalyst. Full legal clarity is still the trade.
