Strategy Adds More Bitcoin Amid S&P 500 Snub; MSTR Stock Falls

Strategy, previously MicroStrategy, has announced another weekly Bitcoin purchase despite failing to make the S&P 500 last week. This comes as the Bitcoin price rebounds, breaking above $112,00 today, although the MSTR stock is still down in premarket trading.

Strategy Acquires 1,955 BTC For $217 Million

In a press release, the company announced that it had acquired 1,955 BTC for $217.4 million last week at an average price of $111,196 per Bitcoin. It has also achieved a BTC yield of 25.8% year-to-date (YTD) and now holds 638,460 BTC, which it acquired for $41.17 billion at an average price of $73,880 per Bitcoin.

The SEC filing shows that Strategy again mainly sold MSTR shares to fund this purchase. The company raised $200.5 million from the sale of 591,606 MSTR shares and an additional $11.6 million and $5.2 million from the sale of STRF and STRK shares.

Notably, this latest purchase comes amid the company’s failure to make the S&P 500 last week. It had met all the criteria for a potential inclusion in the stock index. However, the Committee picked Robinhood, AppLovin, and Emcor over Michael Saylor’s company.

Meanwhile, Saylor had hinted about the purchase yesterday in his conventional X post. He shared a picture of Strategy’s Bitcoin portfolio tracker, with the caption, “Needs More Orange,” which indicated a new purchase.

This marks the company’s sixth consecutive weekly Bitcoin purchase. Last week, it announced a purchase of 4,048 BTC for $444 million. It is worth noting that Strategy now holds over 3% of BTC’s total supply with these latest purchases.

MSTR Stock Down Over 2%

The Strategy stock is down over 2% in premarket trading amid the announcement of this latest Bitcoin purchase. TradingView data shows that the stock is currently trading at around $327, down from last week’s close of $335.

The MSTR stock had dropped following the S&P 500 Committee’s decision, which came in after trading hours on Friday. Notably, the stock traded flat last week but is down over 10% in the last month.

This coincides with the start of when Saylor’s company restarted selling MSTR shares to fund BTC buys, reneging on an earlier promise not to use the common stock to buy shares when the mNAV is below 2.5x.

Meanwhile, the drop in the Strategy stock has occurred despite the rebound in the Bitcoin price today. BTC climbed above $112,000 today, but MSTR has yet to react positively to this despite the correlation between both assets due to the company’s Bitcoin exposure.

Fed rate decision September 2025

The post Fed rate decision September 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. WASHINGTON – The Federal Reserve on Wednesday approved a widely anticipated rate cut and signaled that two more are on the way before the end of the year as concerns intensified over the U.S. labor market. In an 11-to-1 vote signaling less dissent than Wall Street had anticipated, the Federal Open Market Committee lowered its benchmark overnight lending rate by a quarter percentage point. The decision puts the overnight funds rate in a range between 4.00%-4.25%. Newly-installed Governor Stephen Miran was the only policymaker voting against the quarter-point move, instead advocating for a half-point cut. Governors Michelle Bowman and Christopher Waller, looked at for possible additional dissents, both voted for the 25-basis point reduction. All were appointed by President Donald Trump, who has badgered the Fed all summer to cut not merely in its traditional quarter-point moves but to lower the fed funds rate quickly and aggressively. In the post-meeting statement, the committee again characterized economic activity as having “moderated” but added language saying that “job gains have slowed” and noted that inflation “has moved up and remains somewhat elevated.” Lower job growth and higher inflation are in conflict with the Fed’s twin goals of stable prices and full employment.  “Uncertainty about the economic outlook remains elevated” the Fed statement said. “The Committee is attentive to the risks to both sides of its dual mandate and judges that downside risks to employment have risen.” Markets showed mixed reaction to the developments, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average up more than 300 points but the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite posting losses. Treasury yields were modestly lower. At his post-meeting news conference, Fed Chair Jerome Powell echoed the concerns about the labor market. “The marked slowing in both the supply of and demand for workers is unusual in this less dynamic…
