USGS seismic catalogs confirm a subdued global count of magnitude 5.5 or greater earthquakes during the September 7–13 window, with only a handful of events such as the M6.5 Java Sea shock on the 11th, an M5.9 in the Banda Sea region, an M6.3 off Costa Rica, and isolated M5.5s near the Loyalty Islands and elsewhere. This tally aligns with the market’s near-certain pricing of six or fewer events, reflecting below-average weekly seismicity relative to the long-term baseline of roughly 10–15 such quakes. Deep-focus or remote events can occasionally escape initial detection, yet final catalog revisions rarely add enough to alter a low total once the week closes.
