NEW YORK, February 2, 2026, 13:36 EST — Regular session. XRP was last up about 1.4% at around $1.63, after trading as low as $1.53 in the past 24 hours, data from CoinMarketCap showed.

Bitcoin drops below $80,000 as ChatGPT and Grok spit out 2026 crypto picks

Bitcoin dropped 6.5% to $78,719 on Saturday afternoon, slipping under the $80,000 mark amid concerns over tighter liquidity following President Donald Trump’s choice of former Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Warsh as the next Fed chair. Brian Jacobsen, chief economist at Annex Wealth Management, cautioned that price declines can “feed on themselves” and suggested further selling might occur in the coming days. Dropping below the $80,000 mark isn’t just another chart milestone for crypto. It comes at a time when small investors are once again hearing calls to buy the dip.

Robert Kiyosaki says gold, silver and bitcoin are “on sale” as margin hikes deepen rout

Robert Kiyosaki, the “Rich Dad Poor Dad” author, said he’s snapping up gold, silver, and bitcoin following what he described as a “crash.” He called the price dip a chance to buy these assets “on sale.” Gold and silver have seen sharp swings since Friday, with gold marking its steepest one-day drop since 1983 and silver hitting its worst daily plunge ever. CME Group bumped up margin requirements on major U.S. metal futures—the cash traders need to put up to maintain leveraged positions.

Bitcoin drops below $75,000, resetting price predictions for Ethereum and XRP

Bitcoin drops below $75,000, resetting price predictions for Ethereum and XRP

Bitcoin dropped 2.4% to $74,546 during Monday’s Asian session, with ether tumbling as much as 5.2% to $2,166. The selloff in precious metals spilled over into risk assets. Christopher Forbes, head of Asia and Middle East at CMC Markets, described it as “risk off and de-leveraging - a flushing out of leverage in the system which has built up.” The move is significant because crypto still behaves like a high-volatility gamble tied to liquidity, not a haven when investors get defensive—known as “risk-off.” Riya Sehgal from Delta Exchange reported over $2 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated, meaning exchanges forced traders out of losing bets. She highlighted “low-liquidity weekend trading” and noted that outflows from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs—funds holding bitcoin—“amplified” the sell-off.

  • American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL) Up as Jet Fuel Prices Slip Past Forecasts
    July 1, 2026, 10:27 AM EDT. American Airlines shares traded up at $18.07 ahead of the bell, adding to a seven-day run that's pushed the stock up more than 16%. Jet fuel in the U.S. has dropped to $2.86 a gallon as of June 30, down from the $4.00 per gallon figure the airline used in its April outlook for Q2. That drop in one of its main expenses could help earnings, with American using 1.066 billion gallons of fuel in Q1. But at a price-to-earnings ratio of 58.3x, the stock still prices in a lot of fuel sensitivity. Demand for air travel is holding up, even as geopolitics remain tense. The airline is also planning to grow amenities at JFK, keeping a focus on revenue while fuel moves around.
