“Balance of Power: Late Edition” focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today’s show, Republican Congressman Mike Flood of Nebraska says he has an “open mind” to adding ethics provisions to crypto market-structure legislation, including limits on executives or family members operating in the space. Michael Cadenazzi, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Industrial Base Policy, says the U.S. defense industrial base has suffered from decades of insufficient attention to capacity, leaving the country with bottlenecks, single-source risks and dependence on foreign suppliers. Richard Painter, former chief White House ethics lawyer under President George W. Bush, says President Donald Trump’s crypto ventures could violate the Constitution’s foreign emoluments clause if foreign government money is involved, and calls his holdings a “clear conflict of interest” as his administration regulates the industry.

Bloomberg Daybreak Europe is your essential morning viewing to stay ahead. Live from London, we set the agenda for your day, catching you up with overnight markets news from the US and Asia. And we’ll tell you what matters for investors in Europe, giving you insight before trading begins.

On today’s show, Global stocks and futures rebound following a two-day selloff led by tech. US markets are closed for the Independence Day holiday.

Weaker than expected jobs data out of the US has challenged expectations that the Fed will raise interest rates this year. Nonfarm payrolls rose 57 thousand last month, well below estimates. Unemployment fell to 4.2% as labor force participation plunged.

And Bloomberg has learned that some leading European powers now accept that ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz will have to pay fees to Iran and Oman. The US and Gulf Arab countries continue to insist that Iran and Oman cannot impose charges of any kind.
