- CNBC · BTC, IBIT · Jul 2, 2026U.S. economy added 57,000 jobs in June, less than expected; unemployment rate at 4.2%
The June jobs report came in shockingly weak, which actually gave markets a sigh of relief because it means the Federal Reserve is unlikely to raise interest rates. This combination of a cooling economy and a friendlier Fed is already pushing investors toward assets like Bitcoin.
- CNBC · TSLA · Jul 2, 2026Tesla reports 480,126 vehicle deliveries for second quarter, topping expectation
Tesla just crushed its delivery numbers, but the stock market is shifting away from expensive tech and chip stocks. At the same time, a weak jobs report is driving down interest rate expectations, which could allow cheaper, traditional companies to finally catch a bid.

EV makers like Tesla and Rivian just reported much better-than-expected vehicle deliveries for the quarter. At the exact same time, a very weak jobs report means the Federal Reserve is unlikely to raise interest rates further, making car loans cheaper for consumers.
- CoinDesk · BTC, IBIT · Jul 2, 2026U.S. payroll growth slowed sharply in June, with only 57,000 jobs added

- Yahoo Finance · SMCI, SOXX · Jun 29, 2026Super Micro Plunges 8% as Taiwan Raids Its Offices in NVIDIA AI Chip Smuggling Probe

- CNBC · EWY, SCJ · Jul 1, 2026Oil prices fall after U.S.-Iran talks conclude in Doha

- Yahoo Finance · META · Jun 30, 2026Magnificent Seven shed $2.3 trillion in June as AI spending comes under closer scrutiny (MSFT)
The big tech companies known as the Magnificent Seven have lost $2.3 trillion in value over the last month because investors are skeptical about their massive AI spending.

- CNBC · AMD, INTC, MU · Jun 30, 2026Record chip rally adds $2 trillion in combined value to Micron, Intel and AMD in second quarter
Chips stocks like Micron, AMD, and Intel surged dramatically in the second quarter — adding $2 trillion in value — but have suddenly stumbled on the first day of Q3, with Micron dropping 11%.

- CoinDesk · MSTR · Jun 30, 2026Strategy heads for eleventh losing month in twelve as bitcoin weakness continues
