Geoff, Interesting theory and perhaps that is the source of this anomaly. I cannot see these timestamps in the normal price database view, but I can say that most of the price records that were involved in both reports were probably collected online by the Finance-Quote method, usually between 10:00 pm and 2:00 am Central time. I think that I ran the May 31 report this morning and the June 30 report tonight.
However, if that turns out to be the case, I would expect GnuCash to perform the calculations on normalized dates with the times truncated out so this would not affect the reports. I have created a bug report < https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798622> so that we can track the problem.
