Strategy (MSTR) Falls to 52-Week Low as Bitcoin Weakens

We recently published 10 Big Names, Bigger Losses. Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR) was one of the worst performers on Thursday.

Strategy saw its share prices drop to a new 52-week low, as investors unloaded portfolios following Bitcoin’s drop to the $62,000 level, coupled with a disappointing earnings performance in both the full year and fourth quarter of 2025.

At intra-day trading, the stock fell to its lowest price of $104.17 before paring losses to end the day down by 17.12 percent at $106.99 apiece.

In an earnings call, Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR) said that it widened its full-year net loss attributable to shareholders by 259 percent to $4.2 billion from $1.17 billion in 2024, while revenues inched up by 3 percent to $477 million from $463 million year-on-year.

In the fourth quarter alone, net loss attributable to shareholders was markedly higher at $12.6 billion versus $670.8 million year-on-year.

Revenues, on the other hand, picked up by 2 percent to $123 million from $120.7 million year-on-year.

In other news, Bitcoin on Thursday slashed its value by 50 percent to $62,000 from its all-time high of $126,000 after the Treasury Department announced that it does not have the authority to bail out the crypto and its peers.

Sentiment was further dampened by Michael Burry’s comments earlier this week about Bitcoin’s ongoing drop, saying that any further fall to the $50,000 level could evolve into a death spiral and significantly impact Bitcoin mining firms. Burry is a notable investor, having predicted the financial crisis in 2008.

Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR), on the other hand, is one of the largest Bitcoin treasury holders to date. As of end-January, the company holds a total of 713,502.
