  • Strategy (MSTR) is poised to record its eleventh consecutive month of losses, having dropped approximately 41% in June.
  • Since launching STRC in July 2025, MSTR has notably underperformed compared to bitcoin.

Strategy (MSTR) shares are expected to close the month down about 41%, marking their worst monthly performance since 2022, with one trading day still to go.

With this drop, MSTR is on track for its eleventh month of losses in the past twelve. The stock hit a low of nearly $80 on Friday but rebounded over 12% on Monday after the firm revealed its new capital management framework.

Previously, the stock peaked at $540 per share in November 2024, but a significant decline began in July of the following year, which coincided with the launch of its perpetual preferred security, STRC.

STRC is positioned above common stock in the capital hierarchy, providing investors with a less volatile option than holding MSTR shares directly. However, the ongoing need for issuing common stock to fulfill STRC's dividend obligations has raised concerns about dilution, which has further impacted the stock's performance.

Since the STRC IPO, bitcoin BTC$59,307.25 has seen a nearly 50% decline, while MSTR has plummeted by roughly 77%.

At the same time, bitcoin is set to experience its third consecutive quarter of losses, having dropped 20% in June.
