MicroStrategy (MSTR) Stock Drops More Than 8% After Its Latest $209 Million Bitcoin Purchase
Dec 31, 2024 at 12:38 pm
The business intelligence firm, led by Michael Saylor, made the acquisition just before the Nasdaq trading session began on Dec. 30.
Business intelligence firm MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) stock price dropped over 8% after revealing its latest Bitcoin (BTC) purchase of $209 million.
The company, led by Michael Saylor, made the acquisition just before the Nasdaq trading session began on Dec. 30.
As the shares fell by 5.3% within the first hour, dropping from $318.89 to $302.09, they ended the day at $302.96.
However, after-hours trading saw an additional 3.19% dip, bringing the price down to $293.59.
Continuing from its Bitcoin buying spree that began on Oct. 31, MicroStrategy’s latest purchase increases its total BTC holdings to 194,180.
To fund the acquisition, the company sold 592,987 shares, which has raised concerns about its “leveraged” strategy.
This strategy involves using debt and equity to buy more Bitcoin, a move that has drawn criticism for its potential to backfire.
Trading resource The Kobeissi Letter highlighted that MicroStrategy could increase its authorized shares by 10 billion, potentially leading to dilution and a “lose-lose” scenario.
Despite the concerns, MicroStrategy’s stock has seen a 342.15% surge since January 2024.
MicroStrategy’s heavy focus on Bitcoin, also known as “hyperbitcoinization,” has sparked contrasting reactions.
While some believe it could lead to massive growth, others express concerns about the company’s aggressive strategy and its potential for collapse.
notably, MicroStrategy was added to the Nasdaq-100 index on Dec. 23, marking a significant milestone in its presence among the largest Nasdaq companies.
As MicroStrategy’s bold Bitcoin bet continues to generate both optimism and skepticism in the market, it remains a key subject of interest within the financial world.
