XRP Breaks Out Above $2.20 With Triple Volume Surge
XRP pushed decisively above $2.20 resistance in the latest session, gaining nearly 2% on the back of surging trading volume and improving macro conditions. After days of subdued action, the token surged 1.56% in the final hour of trading, backed by more than triple its 24-hour average volume — suggesting renewed conviction among buyers and a possible shift in trend momentum.
The breakout comes amid a rare bout of calm in global markets following ceasefire announcements across key geopolitical flashpoints, including Iran and Israel.
Markets had been jittery for weeks as risk assets reeled from rising tensions, with XRP dropping to as low as $1.90 before staging a 14% recovery in recent sessions.
Technical analysts note that XRP has broken out of a descending wedge pattern and is now testing new support near the $2.22–$2.23 zone.
The move was bolstered by heavy buying during the 13:00 UTC hour on June 25, when volume spiked above 107 million XRP.
That surge included several sharp intra-hour bursts, including a 1.63% rally on 7.8 million volume at 13:18 and a 13-million-unit spike at 13:44 that confirmed the breakout.
This move also repositions XRP within a long-form symmetrical triangle pattern that's been forming for 334 days.
With technical compression nearing its limit, some analysts now eye an upside breakout into the $5–$10 range — if momentum can be sustained into Q3 2025.
XRP traded within a $0.04 range over the last 24 hours, from $2.19 to $2.23. The most decisive action occurred during the 13:00–14:00 UTC hour on June 25, when XRP surged from $2.19 to $2.23, closing the hour near session highs with strong volume support.
Support has now formed near $2.22–$2.23, with sellers unable to push prices meaningfully lower despite earlier whale activity, including a $58 million transfer to Coinbase. Traders are watching whether this zone can hold and potentially serve as the launchpad for a fresh leg higher.

Visa Inc. (V): 'This Is Your Chance' To Buy, Says Jim Cramer
Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) is one of the . Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) is one of the largest financial technology and payment platform providers in the US. Its shares have gained 9.7% year-to-date after facing a tumultuous ride on the stock market. Visa Inc. (NYSE:V)'s stock has lost 5.6% in June after regaining some ground from an earlier 7.3% dip. The shares dipped as the firm suffered in the aftermath of the Senate passing new legislation. This bill introduced federal oversight for stablecoins and led to speculation that retailers could shift to digital currencies and remove the firm from the payments legislation. Commenting on the risk-off sentiment, Cramer shared: 'We've gotta keep going on this Visa. . . Because a lot of our viewers think that these companies are really at risk. I actually think this is your chance to buy them. They're always at risk and they always win.' A financial analyst reviewing stock prices on a graph with a positive outlook. Cramer discussed these trends about Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) later during the day in Mad Money: 'Over the past couple of weeks, Visa and MasterCard, two of my favorite companies, have pulled back sharply from their all-time highs. Wall Street's suddenly worried about the whole payments industry, might be threatened by advances in crypto, especially now that Congress looks like it'll pass its GENIUS Act, which establishes a framework for regulating Stablecoins. Visa fell over 10% from its high, set on June 11, to its low last Friday… This morning I spoke with Visa CEO, Ryan McInerney, and Ryan told me, I think, a story which made me feel like that, that you'd be nuts to be in this, frankly.' While we acknowledge the potential of V as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

The record-breaking week in the stock market that could have gone very badly
It was another exciting week on Wall Street as the S & P 500 and Nasdaq each closed Friday at new record highs. Incredible as that was, this week could have easily gone another way. Last Saturday, the world learned that the U.S. had entered the Israel-Iran conflict, dropping several massive bunker busters on Fordo, Iran's underground nuclear facility buried under a mountain, and bombing two other sites, Isfahan and Natanz. While fear of further escalation and a prolonged war involving the U.S. was palpable last weekend, the market on Monday shrugged, betting on the notion that the conflict would not result in systemic risk or slow the U.S. economy and hamper corporate earnings much, if at all. As risky as any military action is given the potential to spiral out of control, they tend not to impact the market for long, unless signs appear that it will start impacting growth and inflation. That has not yet happened. We did see energy prices surge in the week before last Saturday's bombings, but they quickly came back down. West Texas Intermediate crude plunged on Monday and Tuesday. While rising modestly in each subsequent session, WTI plunged more than 11% for the week, breaking a three-week winning streak. The stock market took its cues from oil trading, which allowed for the S & P 500 and Nasdaq records and weekly gains of nearly 3.5% and more than 4%, respectively. Monday is the last day of June and Wall Street's second quarter. For the week ... S & P 500 week to date (WTD) up 3.44%; first positive week in three Month to date (MTD) up 4.42%; on pace for its second positive month in a row Quarter to date (QTD) up 10%; on pace for its best quarter since first quarter 2024 Nasdaq WTD up 4.25% MTD up 6%; on pace for its third positive month in a row QTD up 17.2%; best quarter since second quarter 2020 Energy represents a major input cost, often one of the largest, for just about every business in the world, so a sustained increase in energy prices would crunch profit margins or force price hikes in order to preserve them. At the same time, it represents a large unavoidable cost for consumers, whether they're trying to air condition their homes in the summer, heat their homes in the winter, or fill up their cars. Given these high priority needs, elevated energy costs end up cutting into discretionary budgets – meaning activities such as eating out or shopping would get cut back. The quick pairing back of those energy price increases this past week, however, means that analysts don't need to downwardly revise estimates for growth, inflation, or consumer spending – at least not yet. The full impact of President Donald Trump 's tariffs is still unclear, though they will almost certainly lead to higher prices for consumers. While the de-escalation of tensions in the Mideast, and subsequent pullback in energy prices, were certainly the most important factors supporting this week's market action, interest rate expectations were also in focus. Though several voting members of the Federal Reserve's policymaking committee, including Fed Chairman Jerome Powell , threw cold water on comments from Fed Governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman that they were on board with a July rate cut, investors have nonetheless started to price in a higher likelihood that we see three Fed rate cuts by year-end, up from the odds of just two cuts only a week ago. That's according to the CME FedWatch Tool . Another important update that could influence interest rate decisions came Friday, with the release of the May personal income and spending report. Within that report, we find the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, the Fed's preferred measure of inflation. While headline PCE was in line with expectations, up 0.1% month over month and up 2.3% annually, the core rate was a bit hotter than expected, rising 0.2% month over month and 2.7% versus the year-ago period, both one-tenth of a percentage point above expectations. The warmer core reading, which excludes food and energy, is something to watch and cuts against the case for a July rate cut. Digging into the portfolio, we hosted our June Monthly Meeting this week, providing a rundown of all 30 holdings. Jim Cramer highlighted six rallying stocks that members may want to consider booking profits in, and five others that look like buys. We also answered key member questions and touched on all 10 names in our Bullpen, including Cisco Systems, which was added on Monday . The Bullpen is our watch list of stocks that could, under the right circumstances, join the Charitable Trust. During the June meeting, Jim was itching to buy Cisco and Boeing but decided to wait. Sticking with portfolio updates, Nvidia hit new all-time highs this past week as sentiment around artificial intelligence and data center demand continued to improve. Analysts at Loop Capital slapped a $250-per-share price target on the stock, highlighting the hyperscaler purchase intentions over the next few years, the compute intensity of reasoning models, and increased inference demand resulting from AI agent adoption. Already regaining the title of the most valuable U.S. public company at more than $3.8 trillion, Nvidia at $250 represents roughly 60% upside to Friday $157 close and a market cap of more than $6 trillion. Needless to say, Nvidia was our top performer for the week up more than 9.5%. Data center plays — Eaton, GE Vernova, and Broadcom are also expected to benefit from the AI strong demand. On Tuesday, analysts at Morgan Stanley raised their price target on GE Vernova, while analysts at HSBC upgraded Broadcom to a buy from a hold rating. Broadcom, Eaton , and GE Vernova were our next best stocks for the week. Goldman Sachs rounded out the week's top five as financial stocks got some incrementally positive news this week when the Fed, on Wednesday, proposed lowering capital requirements for large U.S banks that were implemented in the years following the 2008 financial crisis. The move would allow banks, including Club holdings Goldman and Wells Fargo , to lend more freely while making it easier for them to buy more U.S. government bonds. Amazon continues to be in the news as investors work to better understand the opportunity the company has in new areas like online grocery shopping, thanks to its massive logistics network and the implications of advancing it through generative AI, robotics and autonomous vehicles. In health care, shares of Eli Lilly advanced this week despite data released Monday on the company's experimental weight-loss drug, bimagrumab, which is designed to help patients preserve muscle mass. It failed to wow investors. Abbott Laboratories , meanwhile, got some positive news Tuesday when Health & Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said that his department will encourage the use of wearable health devices. "My vision is every American is wearing a wearable within four years," RFK Jr. said at a House Energy and Commerce Committee meeting . The news may also bode well for devices like the Apple Watch, especially as more health-related sensors are built in. Speaking of Apple , we still believe it is an incredible company with the "greatest product in the world," as Jim put it , referring to the iPhone. However, we think the company would benefit from modifying its capital allocation plans , focusing less on the buyback and more on AI development, be it via internal R & D, paying up for top talent, or acquiring groundbreaking startups.

BTC, ETH, XRP: Crypto Thefts Hit Record $2.1 Billion in Year's First Half
Cryptocurrency investors have lost $2.1 billion to hacks, thefts and scams in this year's first half, the worst six-month period on record for the security of digital assets such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP (XRP). Confident Investing Starts Here: Easily unpack a company's performance with TipRanks' new KPI Data for smart investment decisions Receive undervalued, market resilient stocks right to your inbox with TipRanks' Smart Value Newsletter A new report from TRM Labs found that there have been 75 major incidents related to cryptocurrencies in the first six months of 2025. That topped the previous first half record set in 2022 by about 10% and nearly matched the amount of crypto assets stolen in all of 2024. TRM Labs blames the rise in crypto thefts on North Korea intensifying its cyber attacks in the crypto space. Researchers say North Korean-linked groups are responsible for $1.6 billion, or 70% of all the stolen funds from digital assets this year. State Actors The biggest hack that occurred in this year's first half was the $1.5 billion Bybit hack that took place in February. The Bybit attack is widely viewed as the largest crypto theft in history and is believed to have been perpetrated by North Korea. TRM Labs says that crypto hacks and cyber attacks by nation states are evolving and pose the biggest threat to investments related to digital assets. Additionally, more than 80% of the crypto funds stolen in this year's first half stemmed from infrastructure-level breaches, including private key thefts and front-end hijacks. Bitcoin, the largest crypto by market capitalization, has risen 15% this year. Is BTC a Buy?
