MSTR to $500 in 2026? The Discount Everyone’s Overlooking



MSTR’s had a rough ride lately. Six months ago, it traded above $450. Now it’s hovering around $150. That’s a brutal 66% drop—enough to shake out weak hands, force people to cut losses, and make everyone rethink risk, leverage, and dilution.

But here’s what barely anyone talks about. This selloff pushed MSTR into a rare spot: it’s trading at a serious discount to its Bitcoin stash. According to your data, Strategy holds about $59 billion in BTC. The company’s market cap? Just $46 billion. So, MSTR sells at roughly a 20–25% discount to its net asset value. That $500 bull case doesn’t come from pure hype—it’s right there in the numbers. TD Cowen’s Lance Vitanza points out that if MSTR even partially closes that gap, and Bitcoin stops sliding, the stock could pop hard.

Now, let’s talk levels. The $150 to $157 range is the big support. As long as MSTR stays above it, there’s hope for a rebound. First target: $200.45. Next: $242.29. The real battleground is $342.50. That’s where MSTR has stalled and churned before. If buyers push it above there, you’re not just seeing a dead-cat bounce—it starts looking like a real turnaround. Past that, things could get wild around $430.93 and $456.47. Clear those, and suddenly $500 doesn’t sound so crazy.

There’s a straightforward risk here. If MSTR drops below $150, all bets are off—downside’s back in play. Also, don’t ignore the MSCI decision on January 15. Changes to index inclusion can spark forced buying or selling, so watch out for short-term swings. One more thing: RSI’s around 36. That means the selling is cooling off, but not gone. That’s actually what you want when a stock’s trying to build a base.

This isn’t financial advice. Do your own homework.

Compelling NAV discount case, but Bitcoin volatility and dilution risks still demand disciplined positioning.

MSTR trades below Bitcoin value; discount plus recovery could drive 2026 upside.

The NAV discount angle is what most people miss with MSTR. When fear peaks, that’s usually where opportunity hides. $150 holding is key—lose it and the thesis breaks, hold it and the risk/reward gets very interesting. Watching BTC + index flows closely. Let’s see if the market wakes up to the math.

A neutral observation. Mainstream success requires solving real problems, not creating new ones.

A compelling deep-value case if the Bitcoin discount closes and technical support holds.

Strong breakdown 👌 The NAV discount is the real story here—MSTR pricing in fear more than fundamentals. If BTC stabilizes and that gap even partially closes, the upside leverage is obvious. $150 support is key; above it, this looks more like accumulation than capitulation. Interesting times ahead. 🚀📊
