So let me get this straight.

You have:

A) the most profitable company

B) The best performing stock in the entire marketplace for 4 years running

C) An indefensibly large holding of Bitcoin (the most pristine sound money in existence)

D) Can issue billions of dollars of debt at 0% interest to buy even more Bitcoin

E) Has literally the entire $350 Trillion dollar Total Address Market (TAM) bond market as your customers

F) FASB accounting changes

G) QQQ and S&P 500 index inclusion

And STILL you say 3X NAV is a Ponzi?

Good luck then.

Time for another update on my short sales of MSTR.

Trade 1 (outlined above)- net profit of $1,015.43 (10.7%) in 2 days
Trade 2: This was when I went back in Thursday in after hours and shorted MSTR again after it popped some. Friday I covered the short and lost money. Lost a total of $419.54 on this second trade. So my total net profit for the two trades combined was $595.89, less than what I expected, but I gained some valuable trading experience on something I'd never traded before.

Frankly, I thought MSTR would come down sharply in the first 30-90 minutes or so Friday. When it stayed strong I figured I didn't want to hold a short position in this over the weekend and decided to take a modest loss and move on.

There are far too many other things I trade and do better at. I will have to be more selective on this and/or use even smaller position size. I still think this will have a sizable pullback, but trying to time it was more difficult than I thought it would be.
Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).

NOTE: ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- often
substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) and selling short as well.

Thanks, Steve. Keep us in the loop if you dabble some more.

Meanwhile on X...
Bitcoin Archive @BTC_Archive
I have NEVER seen Michael Saylor so emphatically, combatively bullish like this in a media interview.

It's like he wants to say "mfer my company is up $100b in 90 days, and we just raised $10b to buy more #Bitcoin this month. You still asking me about volatility?"

Here's the breakdown:

• MSTR may be the most profitable company in the USA and growing the fastest at the moment
• We've made $5.4 BILLION in $BTC gains in 2 weeks
• Thats $500m a day
• Not many companies make $500m a day
• People don't understand our business
• We are a Bitcoin Treasury business
• We expect Bitcoin to go up 29% a year for 21 years
• Market is buying Bitcoin 20x faster than daily issuance
• We either make $3b on this week's convertible bond, or $30b if Bitcoin does what we expect
• I got a $500m order to buy convertible notes in a 20 minute meeting
• Every Bitcoin you don't buy will cost you $13m in the future (expected price)
