Brian Shannon, founder and full-time trader at AlphaTrends, questions the common practice of labeling uneducated money in financial markets as "retail" while implying that institutions are inherently smarter.
He emphasizes that there are many smart individuals who regularly outperform the market, and numerous well-known institutions that fail to do so.
Shannon has previously highlighted technical shifts in major indexes, noting a recent dip in SPY below its 5SMA even as QQQ and SMH maintained strength in his market commentary. He also introduced two new contributors at AlphaTrends and announced a future Memorial Day sale in a separate update. These developments reflect ongoing activities from Shannon and his team.
