On September 8, Strategy declined 3.12% in regular trading, trading at $138.19/share, with turnover of $294 million. The stock had previously closed at $142.80 on September 5, and the current pullback reflects continued pressure from MSCI index-related uncertainty and broader crypto sector weakness.
On the news front, MSCI is conducting a consultation — set to conclude on September 30 — on whether to reclassify companies with significant digital asset holdings as \"non-operating companies,\" potentially excluding Strategy from its global equity indices. Strategy has publicly opposed the proposal, arguing it extends a previously withdrawn plan targeting firms with over 50% digital asset exposure. While Strategy noted that MSCI-tracking funds hold only about 3.1% of its basic float, the overhang continues to pressure valuation sentiment.
Within the Application Software sector, performance was mixed. Among individual stocks, IREN Ltd up 4.85%, D-Wave Quantum up 9.95%, Palantir Technologies down 0.41%, Salesforce.com down 2.99%, and Circle Internet down 2.96%, reflecting broad weakness across crypto-linked names.
