Strategy Inc. (MSTR) shares suffered a sharp drop of more than 5% this Thursday, hovering around $112.53. This decline occurred after it was confirmed that the company suspended its at-the-market (ATM) preferred stock offering program because its STRC vehicle fell to all-time lows of $89, trading below its par value. Additionally, multimillion-dollar stock sales by top company executives, including director Jarrod Patten, exerted significant downward pressure on the firm’s listing on NASDAQ.
The interruption of this financial avenue directly hits the firm’s capital raising model used for the systematic purchase of Bitcoin. QCP analysts estimate that the company has approximately 7.5 months of liquidity to cover dividends, which could force it to further dilute its shareholders or liquidate part of its cryptocurrency reserves. This occurs in a complex macroeconomic environment, following the Federal Reserve’s hawkish stance that keeps interest rates in the 3.50%–3.75% range.
Despite accumulating a decline of approximately 31% over the past month, major brokerage firms like Bernstein maintain a buy recommendation, setting a price target of $450. The market will now closely watch whether the financial holding company will modify its institutional strategy in the face of potential debt restructuring scenarios.
