A recent market update highlighted Brian Shannon’s weekly review of stock market and cryptocurrency trends for the week ending June 12, 2026.

The analysis covered a broad range of assets, including major market indexes and ETFs such as SPY, QQQ, SMH, and IWM, along with individual stocks including AAPL, META, MU, SNDK, INTC, DAVE, and SPCX. Brian also discussed developments in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and other areas of the cryptocurrency market.

The review examined how these assets were behaving within the context of broader market trends, with particular attention given to price structure, VWAP-related analysis, and the activity surrounding recent IPOs.

By evaluating stocks and cryptocurrencies side by side, Brian’s commentary provided a broader perspective on where strength, weakness, and potential opportunities were developing across multiple asset classes.

For traders who follow Brian’s work regularly, this type of analysis reflects a consistent approach: focusing on price behavior, market structure, and risk management rather than predictions or headlines.

Inside the Alphatrends Premium Membership, Brian expands on these ideas daily through detailed market breakdowns, Anchored VWAP analysis, and structured trade planning across stocks, ETFs, futures, and crypto markets.
