MSTR hit a 1 y low yesterday. If bitcoin rallies in 2026, it could be a great opportunity to see some big gains.

If it does it will take BLSH and HOOD along with it.

I read yesterday that Strategy owns c. 650,000 BTC. That's a heck of a statement.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

MSTR is highly leveraged and not a widow or orphan equity. It trades at a discount to its Bitcoin holdings. But it needs to generate cash to service its debt and pay preferred shareholder dividends. If Bitcoin crashes to around $15,000 then MSTR would become insolvent.

High risk, high reward. The underlying business is only worth a small fraction of its Bitcoin holdings.

Am I the only one who rolls eyes at most of CNBC's homepage headlines?

"Bernie Sanders and Ron DeSantis agree on data center restrictions. Potentially disastrous for AI market"

"Meet your new stock market for 2026. It's basically the same AI driven market for 2025"

"TSLA down 16% on deliveries"

"Norway up to 96% EV drivers, thanks to Tesla sales surge"

They're making Motley Fool look consistent. Lol.

If today is any indication of how the market will act the rest of the year - buckle up!

Wow wow wow

Not as dumb as I look

Oil is down 10-15% over past 2-3 months.

Haliburton is up 30-35%.

Almost like Wall Street knew this was going to happen.....

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

I’m not one to offer opinion here, but wtf is we doing. Cannot believe the audacity.

Funny with all the crickets in the PF when I brought up if we were OK with Iran executing their warrants against Trump or Biden...

Very clear this is about oil and the MIC.

And if ever needed proof Wall Street knows more, it was clear with oil company movement yesterday...

 

[Go aeiou]

Not as dumb as I look

how much did the Trump family make?

MIC?

Wall St war profiteering is not something that leaves me warm and fuzzy.

Disclaimer: I own COP and PSX which saw a bump.

MIC = Military Industrial Complex (fancy way of saying war profiteering)

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

how much did the Trump family make?

I dont think that was the angle here. Pretty clear this was an oil driven campaign....

Dont reallt think that this does much to oil prices long term but there will be definite winners and losers when it comes to oil infrastructure (SLB or HAL)

 

[jvol1]

We have all the oil we need and the rest of the world is going electric. This is the worst kind of imperialism.

That is my question.

How did Wall St know about the event 16 hours prior to the mission?

I don't watch much television so am perhaps wrong on the timeline..?

Because no one can keep a secret when money's to be made.

It would be interesting to see how much the Trump family bought.
