7-12-2025
Status of Listed Events in July 2025:
Basel III Endgame: Phase-in commenced July 1, 2025, with full compliance by July 1, 2028; focuses on capital requirements for large banks, increasing operational risk buffers by 9% for G-SIBs.
Trump’s Tariffs: Imposed July 9, 2025, at 30% on Iraqi non-oil imports (exempting crude oil, 98% of exports); reduced from initial 39% threat, but risks reserve drains if oil prices fall 5-10%. No “end” occurred user reference may misalign with imposition date.
ISO 20022: Migration for cross-border payments on track, with Swift coexistence ending November 2025; Fedwire adoption confirmed for July 14, 2025.
Fedwire: Single-day ISO 20022 implementation July 14, 2025; ends legacy formats, enabling blockchain pilots for 20% of oil settlements.
GENIUS Act (Senate): Passed Senate June 17, 2025 (68-30 vote); establishes stablecoin framework, now pending House reconciliation.
CLARITY Act (House): Advanced from committees June 2025; slated for House floor week of July 14 during “Crypto Week”; divides SEC/CFTC oversight for digital assets.
Iraq WTO 4th Meeting: Third Working Party meeting July 18, 2024; fourth delayed to Q1 2026 due to reform gaps; accession hinges on tariff bindings and anti-corruption measures.
Ripple/SEC Ends: Ripple dropped cross-appeal June 27, 2025; SEC closed meeting July 10 could finalize; $125M penalty dispute ongoing, no confirmed July closure.
Peace in Middle East: Gaza armistice January 2025; Hezbollah-Israel truce November 2024; ongoing tensions with Israeli forces in Lebanon hills; no comprehensive July breakthrough.
US Dollar Tanks / Currencies Rise: Dollar down 10% H1 2025 (worst since 1991) from debt ($35T+), tariffs, and rate cut expectations; EUR/USD at 1.17, GBP/USD at 1.37 by Q3.
Hypothetical Impact if All Events Align:
Combined pressures tariff exemptions preserving oil revenues, ISO 20022 enabling digital settlements, crypto bills boosting USD alternatives, dollar weakness lifting emerging currencies, and WTO progress could force CBI to advance a managed float to Q3 2025 for reserve bolstering; blockchain tests cover 20% transactions, positioning for subtle tweak.

Mnt Goat “WHERE ARE THE 2025 BUDGET SCHEDULES? PROJECTS ARE SUSPENDED, PLANS ARE POSTPONED, AND PARLIAMENT HOLDS THE GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABLE” No, the RV rate in not in these budget tables as a reason to hold them up that they don’t want us to see until they are ready to RV… Again, any revaluation of the Iraqi dinar will be announced and we don’t need to go fishing through some budget tables to find it, if it could even be there… [Post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
Mnt Goat The House of Representatives will hold its first session of the second legislative term for 2025 on Saturday. Let’s hope they finally take up the Oil and Gas Law again. We know they will take up the issue of the Budget Tables… we still see the CBI trucking again and making movement towards its final destination of the reinstatement of the dinar to a global status (FOREX). It is like these other issues, although are very important, feel like just distractions but we know they can also affect the monetary process and should be resolved for stability. [Post 2 of 2]
Jim Rickards: Why Tariffs Work and the Lie They’ve Told for 50 Years
Daniela Cambone: 7-11-2025
Jim Rickards joins Daniela Cambone at the Rule Symposium in Boca Raton to dismantle the mainstream narrative on tariffs, trade, and the dollar’s decline.
In his most candid interview yet, Rickards reveals why Trump’s tariff strategy isn’t chaos — it’s a calculated economic war plan.
With historical precedent on his side, he argues that tariffs aren’t inflationary — they’re a catalyst for domestic manufacturing, job growth, and a stronger U.S. economy.
Rickards explains how today’s dollar decline is no accident, but a Treasury-engineered repeat of the Nixon and Plaza Accords playbook — all part of the “Mar-a-Lago Accord” now quietly reshaping the global monetary order.
He predicts $4,000 gold by year-end, with $10,000+ on the horizon, as America’s financial reset unfolds.
Don’t miss this explosive conversation that challenges everything you’ve been told about globalization, deficits, and the future of money.
