Bitcoin buying can’t lift Strategy stocks, here’s what Michael Saylor is doing!

Jakarta, Pintu News – Earlier this week, shares of Strategy (formerly known as MicroStrategy) saw another 5% drop, marking a continuation of the downward trend that has been ongoing for the past few months. This drop came despite the company recently increasing its investment in Bitcoin with a $118 million purchase.

Bitcoin buying unable to lift stocks

Strategy announced on Monday that it had purchased an additional 1,287 Bitcoin (BTC), bringing its total stash to 673,783 Bitcoin (BTC). Although this purchase came at a time when the price of Bitcoin (BTC) was surging due to the US-Venezuela conflict, the company’s stock was unable to maintain its momentum.

After peaking at $167.24, MSTR’s share price soon dropped to a low of $155 and then stabilized at $157. This brings back questions about investor confidence and long-term sustainability.

Unrealized Losses Loom

According to data from Bloomberg, Strategy suffered an unrealized loss of $17.44 billion in the fourth quarter of last year. The sustained selling pressure caused their shares to drop by almost 50% throughout 2025.

Although the company has tried to build cash reserves by selling common stock, which recently increased by $62 million to $2.25 billion, investor concerns remain. They worry that Strategy may have to sell some of their Bitcoin (BTC) if the price drops further.

New Policies Amid Uncertainty

In late November, Phon Le CEO admitted for the first time that the company could sell their Bitcoin (BTC) holdings under certain crisis conditions. This announcement was a significant change from Michael Saylor’s long-standing belief to “never sell”. Going into 2026, the company’s outlook looks challenging.

Although Strategy received some relief after MSCI announced that it would not be removing digital assets from its index in February, the volatile price of Bitcoin (BTC) is still a major threat.

Conclusion

By continuing to increase its exposure to Bitcoin (BTC), Strategy may face greater repercussions in the event of a sharp price drop in the future. This decision to continue investing in Bitcoin (BTC) amid market uncertainty raises serious questions about the company’s long-term strategy and its ability to maintain investor confidence.
