MicroStrategy Stock Price Drops
In the pre-market trading hours on Monday, the MicroStrategy stock price fell by 5.5%, dropping to $334 levels. This is amid a broader Wall Street selloff due to fears of DeepSeek disruption, which is dragging crypto stocks down.
Over the past three months, the MSTR stock hasn’t provided any returns to investors. However, it is still trading at 109% gains on the six-month chart. Also, its one-year gains are a staggering 600%. The MicroStrategy share price has been largely fluctuating in the $300-$400 range.
Regarding today’s Bitcoin price crash, Saylor stated: “Volatility is a gift to the faithful”. Over the years, Saylor’s belief in Bitcoin has only grown stronger as he has been raising cash through debt and equity issuance.
