PANews, December 3—According to Reuters, Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR), the world’s largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, is in talks with index provider MSCI regarding a possible decision to remove it from the MSCI USA and MSCI World indices.
MSCI is expected to make a decision on January 15, 2026. If the removal takes effect, it could trigger capital outflows of up to $8.8 billion, particularly from funds held through passive investment tools such as ETFs.
Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor stated that the company is participating in the relevant process but expressed uncertainty about the scale of outflows predicted by JP Morgan. Saylor also noted that Bitcoin’s price has recently pulled back sharply from the all-time high of $120,000 set in October. Along with the AI bubble and economic uncertainty, this has put pressure on risk assets. Strategy’s stock price has fallen more than 37% this year.
As a digital asset treasury company, Strategy provides investors with exposure to risk assets by holding cryptocurrencies. However, the recent market downturn may force similar companies to sell assets, further exacerbating downward price pressure.
