MicroStrategy (MSTR) stocks have surged 6% after a decisive outcome by
MSCI rejecting the plan to exclude digital asset treasury firms from their indexes. Cryptocurrency sector experienced a wave of sell-offs as
Bitcoin value wavered, following a negative MSCI norm. Concurrently, the
New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) has entered an agreement with MSCI and will serve as the U.S. options listing venue for benchmark indexes beginning early 2026 which could reshape the Bull case for Intercontinental Exchange (ICE). Growth projections for MSCI have been adjusted due to slower growth rates and repriced expectations. Despite these challenges, MSTR ascended beyond its 20-day moving average after the MSCI verdict. That said, financial experts still caution about potential risks and future hurdles. There are also concerns about MSCI’s uncertain stance on crypto exclusion, which is affecting both MSCI and Bitcoin markets.
MSCI's decision to retain Strategy in its indices brings some relief but speculation is rife about the broader review to come. Adding to the events, MSCI has decided to begin listing benchmark index options on NYSE in 2026 while considering a shift in its current stance on crypto treasuries.
