Strategy (MSTR) Shows Signs of Hope After Dramatic Drop
The share price of Strategy Incorporated (MSTR), led by Michael Saylor, a well-known Bitcoin advocate, has plunged catastrophically, losing over 65% from its July highs.
While Bitcoin itself has declined by only around 30?35% from its autumn peaks, MSTR shares fell roughly twice as much. This may be linked to Saylor?s strategy of heavily buying Bitcoin on borrowed funds ? a tactic that amplified gains when crypto prices rose but intensified losses as BTC/USD fell, placing extra pressure on the company?s market capitalisation and creating risks for MSTR shareholders.
Reports indicate that major funds, including BlackRock, Vanguard, and Fidelity, sold significant holdings of MSTR shares in Q3, and JPMorgan has warned that MSTR could be removed from the Nasdaq 100.
Yesterday, the price dropped to its lowest level since last autumn. However, the chart offers tentative hope for bulls. The candle is notable because, although the price fell below $160, it closed above $170, showing that the decline did not fully continue.
