Strategy Inc 8.00% Series A Perpetual Strike Preferred Stock

STRK

Market cap $446M

Spot Bitcoin briefly fell below the critical $60,000 support level last week, triggering a wave of retail panic. Yet, shares of Strategy Inc. NASDAQ: MSTR rose over 12.6% intraday on volume exceeding 44.93 million shares.

The collapse of MSTR and its universe of preferred shares has raised existential risks from a Bitcoin dip spiral. MSTR's market-adjusted net asset value has fallen to 0.99x, a level that limits its ability to purchase BTC through issuing new shares. While STRF is cumulative, which limits the risk of a coupon suspension, a BTC negative dip spiral and decline in MSTR's USD reserve coverage to 9.8 months poses a threat.

Michael Saylor's STRC stock has made headlines this week as its implosion gained momentum amid the ongoing crypto market weakness. The Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock plunged from the par level of $100 to a record low of $72.60.

Strategy offers four perpetual preferred shares ('STRXs') targeting high-yield investors seeking Bitcoin exposure without direct crypto ownership. I rate STRF and STRD a BUY for their 10%+ yields, with STRF offering top liquidation priority and STRD higher yield but greater risk. I rate STRK a BUY for Bitcoin holders desiring income with potential equity upside through convertibility into MSTR common stock.

Strategy Inc 8.00% Perpetual Strike Preferred (STRK) offers a unique blend of fixed income and MSTR equity upside. STRK's issuance overhang has been mostly eliminated, with authorized shares cut and ATM capacity reduced. STRK provides three ways to win: MSTR rally-driven conversion value, credit repricing of its discounted dividend stream, and over 10% tax-deferred yield.

Strategy (for which I said “Sell” on 2/13/26), is more than just a stock or even bitcoin play. It's actually the parent of four high-yielding children, more specifically preferred stocks. I can dislike parent MSTR but still like one or more of its children. It's like me being a customer of Citigroup and Schwab but hating bank and brokerage stocks. My favorite child, and I think MSTR's favorite too, is a so-called treasury credit nicknamed “Stretch” with a ticker STRC. An adjustable dividend keeps the price near par. Buy.

Strategy Inc (MSTR) Q4 2025 Earnings Call Transcript

MicroStrategy (MSTR) has seen its Bitcoin-as-a-Treasury strategy falter, eroding the premium that has fueled rapid BTC accumulation via equity issuance. MSTR's market-adjusted net asset value (mNAV) has declined to 1.07, making further equity issuance more dilutive and less accretive for BTC purchases. The 10% Series A Perpetual Stride Preferred (STRD) offers substantial income with clearly defined risks, though coupon suspension remains a remote concern.

Strategy's preferred stocks are evaluated, with a focus on STRC, STRK, STRF, and STRD for investment merit. MSTR's business model relies on capital raises to accumulate Bitcoin, lacking operational income to support fixed obligations during BTC downturns. STRD is rated Buy among the preferreds, despite lacking cumulative dividends or conversion features, due to its risk/reward profile and current market pricing.
