Crypto Gets a Win, Mortgage Rates Jump, and 23andMe Sells for Pennies
Markets are reacting to a wave of big moves: Home Depot isn’t raising prices despite tariffs, leaning on scale and supply chain shifts to protect margins. The Senate just advanced a bill that would regulate stablecoins, signaling long-awaited clarity for crypto. 23andMe, once a $6B darling of the DNA testing world, was sold for $256M to Regeneron in a bankruptcy-driven pivot to pharma. Mortgage rates surged past 7% again after Moody’s downgraded U.S. credit, renewing pressure on homebuyers. And TXNM Energy hit all-time highs after Blackstone announced an $11.5B buyout — showing investors still love a bold bet on energy infrastructure.
