Saylor’s Strategy buys the dip despite global tariff concerns

Strategy, the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder, continues buying the dips despite widespread investor fears of a premature bear market.

Strategy’s latest investment comes amid global trade war fears, which analysts say could weigh on both traditional and digital asset markets at least through early April.

Despite a multitude of positive crypto-specific developments, global tariff concerns will continue to pressure the markets until at least April 2, according to Nicolai Sondergaard, a research analyst at Nansen.

“I’m looking forward to seeing what happens with the tariffs from April 2nd onward. Maybe we’ll see some of them dropped, but it depends if all countries can agree. That’s the biggest driver at this moment,” the analyst said during Cointelegraph’s Chainreaction daily X show on March 21.

Risk assets may lack direction until the tariff-related concerns are resolved, which may happen between April 2 and July, presenting a positive market catalyst, he added.

US President Donald Trump’s reciprocal tariff rates are set to take effect on April 2 despite earlier comments from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent indicating a possibility of a delay in their implementation.
