Brent Crude Oil (OIL) is locked in an aggressive downward trend, trading near $72.91 on the daily chart on June 25, 2026. For everyday traders, the message flashing across the energy desk is undeniable: institutional sellers have taken complete control of the market. After violently invalidating its long-term support floors, the global benchmark is sliding fast.

Shares of the world's largest corporate Bitcoin treasury company, Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR, formerly MicroStrategy), experienced a punishing sell-off during standard trading on June 24, plunging 9.26% to close at $94.22. The drop undercuts the psychologically critical $100 threshold on a split-adjusted basis for the first time since early 2024, trading heavily toward its fresh 52-week low of $92.28.

SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ: SNDK) experienced an explosive 11.94% post-market surge, vaulting to $2,150.83 after closing the standard June 24 trading session down 2.15% at $1,921.42.

International oil prices pulled back sharply, with WTI falling to US$69.14 a barrel and Brent to US$72.35, taking both benchmarks below key psychological levels. The drop comes as US-Iran talks show progress and tanker movements through the Strait of Hormuz rebound to 14 ships a day. Weak demand signals from China added pressure after May crude imports came in at 7.82 million barrels per day, the lowest since 2018 and 38% below February. ASX energy shares also retreated, with Woodside and Santos each down nearly 15% over the past month.

Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC) is firmly back in the spotlight as a massive intraday trend reversal and major infrastructure announcements pushed the stock up over 3% during standard trading, followed by an explosive 5.14% after-hours rally to $138.69.

Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MU) has officially crossed into the trillion-dollar club, crushing its Fiscal Q3 2026 earnings with jaw-dropping numbers that underscore the structural, near-insatiable demand for high-bandwidth memory (HBM) and data center infrastructure. The memory maker announced its fifth consecutive revenue record, pushing the stock up over 14% in extended trading to approximately $1,195.97, coming within striking distance of its 52-week high of $1,213.56.

Binance is looking for a new EU licensing path after withdrawing its MiCA licence application in Greece shortly before its current permission expires. The exchange now faces an authorization deadline as it prepares to apply in another EU member state. The move comes as the MiCA transition period approaches its end, tightening the timeline for firms operating without full approval.

Gold fell below $4,000 an ounce, sliding to a low of $3,964 an ounce, its lowest level since November, while silver also came under pressure. The drop followed a stronger U.S. dollar and rising expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates high. The stronger dollar has reduced the appeal of dollar-priced precious metals for overseas investors.
