MicroStrategy Stock Recovers in Pre-Market Trading

MicroStrategy stock traded at $307 in pre-market sessions, up $2.40. The modest gain follows a challenging previous session when shares closed at $304.79, down $15.50 or 4.84% on October 10, 2025.

The recent weakness in MSTR stock shows overall market turbulence as Bitcoin crashed below $104,000 during tariff-driven selling pressure.

The MSTR stock maintains a high correlation with Bitcoin price movements, given the company’s concentrated treasury strategy.

The 4.84% drop on October 10 aligned with crypto market weakness before Bitcoin’s recovery.

MicroStrategy stock has delivered substantial returns to shareholders over multi-year periods as Bitcoin appreciated from bear market lows.

The company’s strategy of accumulating Bitcoin through cash flow, debt offerings, and equity raises has created the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin treasury.

MicroStrategy Adds 220 Bitcoin at $123,561 Average Price

MicroStrategy executive chairman Michael Saylor announced that the company acquired 220 BTC for approximately $27.2 million on October 12, 2025.

The purchase price of $123,561 per Bitcoin is a premium of 8.4% above the current BTC price of $114,000.

The above-market acquisition cost suggests the purchase occurred during a recent price spike or through over-the-counter transactions with premium pricing.

The acquisition brings total company holdings to 640,250 Bitcoin, according to Saylor’s announcement.

This is a 219 BTC jump from the 640,031 BTC shown in purchase history data from Saylortracker through September 29.

Strategy’s cumulative Bitcoin investment now totals approximately $47.38 billion at an average cost basis of $74,000 per coin. The average purchase price has increased from $73,983 shown in earlier purchase history data.

Saylor stated that MicroStrategy “has achieved BTC Yield of 25.9% YTD 2025.” This shows the substantial performance from the BTC treasury strategy.

September Buying Activity Shows Consistent Accumulation

Purchase history data reveals consistent Bitcoin accumulation throughout September 2025 across multiple transactions.

MicroStrategy acquired 196 BTC on September 29 for $22.16 million at $113,048 average cost. The purchase was one of the smallest September acquisitions by Bitcoin count.

Earlier in September, buying occurred at lower average prices. The September 22 purchase acquired 850 BTC for $99.74 million at $117,344 average.

The September 15 transaction bought 525 BTC for $60.15 million at $114,562, nearly matching current market levels.

Larger September acquisitions included 1,954.84 BTC on September 8 for $217.37 million at $111,196 average cost. The September 2 transaction acquired 4,048.52 BTC for $449.31 million at $110,981.

Bitcoin’s recovery from $104,000 crash lows to current $114,000 levels validates the Strategy’s continued buying through volatility.

The company’s unwavering commitment to Bitcoin accumulation positions it as the primary public markets vehicle for institutional Bitcoin exposure.

Besides, many market pundits expect a strong rally in MicroStrategy (MSTR) stock if BTC can continue to rally amid the shifting market interest towards digital assets.
