“Grocery Price Emergency” & Crypto’s Tough 2026 6/30/26

President Trump has not signed the housing legislation (cnbc.com/2026/06/24/trump-cancels-housing-bill…) that passed both chambers. Instead, the President has underscored his priority: the SAVE America Act (cnbc.com/2026/06/25/trump-gop-housing-bill-sav…). A commercial JetBlue flight hit a drone at JFK, and SpaceX may one day donate stock shares to “Trump accounts.” Former director of the CFPB Rohit Chopra is about to begin a new role as Business and Consumer Services Agency Secretary for California. He’s concerned about pricing pressures on American consumers, calling the current environment a “grocery price emergency.” Plus, head of Coinbase institutional strategy John D’Agostino discusses crypto’s tough year so far (cnbc.com/2026/06/25/bitcoin-is-having-a-tough-…), and considers the inherent value of digital assets (cnbc.com/2026/06/26/billionaire-investor-jerem…).
