What to Know:
- Strategy shares have decided to go on a holiday from gains, dropping every month for six straight months-talk about commitment! 🚀🛑
- This persistent decline puts last year’s quick rebounds to shame; apparently, stocks are now just stubborn teenagers refusing to grow up.
- Even with the firm buying more Bitcoin than a teenager hoarding snacks, their stock still underperformed both Bitcoin and the Nasdaq 100-nice try, guys. 🥴
Strategy (MSTR) shares have been sulking for six consecutive months-the longest since they turned to Bitcoin as their financial BFF back in August 2020, according to some crypto nerd named Chris Millas.
On January 1st, Millas casually posted a chart that looked like it was drawn by a stressed out kindergartner, showing the shares’ endless downward spiral since July-16.78% in August, 16.36% in October, a whopping 34.26% in November, and another 14.24% in December. Ouch. 💔

While Strategy’s past photo albums include bigger single-month meltdowns, those usually came with a quick rebound-a little rally here, a brief hope there. Not this time. No rallies, no joy-just relentless downward drift, like a car with no brakes heading down a hill.
As of December 31st, the shares were worth $151.95, dropping 2.35% that day alone. Over the last month they’re down 11.36%, over six months 59.30%, and for the past year? Nearly half of their value-49.35%. Yep, that’s depressing. 📉
Meanwhile, Bitcoin, that shiny digital magic carpet, managed to stay a little more elegant. As of January 1st, it was trading at $87,879-up a tiny 0.38% in 24 hours. Over the last month, it’s down only 5.06%, over three months, down 27.36%, and over the year? Just 9.65%. Basically, Bitcoin is on a slightly bumpy but still fairly steady ride. 🚀
Despite all that, Strategy’s big brains kept buying Bitcoin-more than 1,200 BTC worth about $108.8 million on December 29th, according to their chairman, Michael Saylor. As of the end of December, they held a staggering 672,497 BTC, valued at roughly $50.44 billion-because who doesn’t need a digital dragon to hoard in their basement? 🐉
And the broader market? The Nasdaq, where Strategy dreams of being a star, rose a healthy 20.17% in 2025. Meanwhile, their shares decided to take a nap. Classic. 💤
