Key Points

  • MicroStrategy’s stock, MSTR, ranks second on the Nasdaq 100 Component Year-to-Date Returns list, surpassing Meta, Netflix, and Nvidia.
  • Despite facing backlash and potential tax implications, MSTR’s stock prices remain bullish, largely due to the company’s aggressive Bitcoin investment strategy.

MicroStrategy Inc. has secured the second position on the Nasdaq 100 Component Year-to-Date Returns list, outperforming well-known tech giants like Meta, Netflix, and Nvidia.

The Nasdaq 100, a primary benchmark for tech companies, showcases top performers based on their Year-to-Date returns. As of January 29, 2025, Constellation Energy Corp leads the list with a 22.93% YTD gain, while MicroStrategy follows closely with a 20.13% rise. In comparison, Meta and Netflix reported increases of 12.7% and 0.04% respectively, whereas NVIDIA experienced an 11% drop in its stock price.

Rising Fortunes for MSTR

The bullish trend in MSTR’s stock prices began when Michael Saylor, the Chairman of MicroStrategy, unveiled the “21/21 Plan” in October 2024.

Under this plan, MicroStrategy intends to raise $42 billion over three years, half from selling shares and half from borrowing. The goal is to invest more in Bitcoin (BTC) and earn yearly returns of 6% to 10% on these BTC investments from 2025 to 2027. Over the past six months, MSTR’s price has surged by 108.01%, indicating a favorable market sentiment towards MSTR.

Analysts now foresee another 20% rise in MSTR’s price. On January 27, MicroStrategy purchased $1.1 billion worth of BTC, increasing the company’s total BTC holdings to 471,107. According to MSTR’s Bitcoin Treasury report, the firm’s BTC assets are valued at $48.23 billion.

Challenges for MSTR

Despite its success, MSTR has faced criticism, with some analysts labeling it a “Ponzi scheme”. In December, when MSTR’s price dropped by $300, analyst Martin Shkreli criticized the company for relying heavily on debt and equity issuance to buy more BTC, thereby risking shareholder value dilution.

Furthermore, a recent report by the Wall Street Journal suggests that MicroStrategy could face a significant tax hit from a new corporate alternative minimum tax. This tax, if implemented, would apply to the firm’s unrealized gains on BTC. Consequently, MicroStrategy might have to sell a portion of its BTC assets to pay these taxes, which could impact its stock prices.
