After observing MSTR's consistent beta movement of 1.59x relative to Bitcoin, it's evident that MicroStrategy continues to shine as the ideal stock for capturing leveraged Bitcoin exposure. Given its high beta nature and volatility based on Bitcoin's movement, we can pretty effectively price MSTR in a manner that is fixed to Bitcoin's price movements.
Current Position Analysis
- MSTR: $272.36 (on Friday)
- BTC: $76,417 (on Friday)
The reasoning remains solid - MicroStrategy believes, and has believed, that BTC is the most appropriate store of value now and in the future. The evidence continues to support their thesis.
Price Targets
I am anticipating MSTR to reach $317-343 when BTC hits the $85,000-90,000 range. This is where strategic position management becomes crucial. A partial position reduction would be smart in anticipation of a significant price correction.
Expected Correction
The correction should take MSTR down to the $143-157 range, coinciding with Bitcoin pulling back to $52,000-55,000. This retracement makes sense from a market liquidity perspective and aligns with typical crypto market cycles.
Mining Economics
Current mining expenses suggest a fundamental floor. After the next period of mining difficulty adjustments, we expect production costs to create natural price support. This economic reality will drive the next significant move upward.
Long-Term Projection
The longer-term outlook points to MSTR reaching approximately $502 when BTC achieves $120,000. This projection is based on:
- Maintained 1.59x price correlation
- Historical movement patterns
- Mining cost economics
- Market liquidity cycles

------------------
Current Snapshot as of 11/10:
BTC: $80,500 (up from our last analysis at $76,417)
Change: +$4,083 (+5.34% increase)
Expected MSTR movement: 5.34% × 1.59 = 8.49% increase
Therefore, MSTR should theoretically be around $295-$300 (from $272.36)
We're approaching our predicted range of $85,000-90,000 BTC faster than anticipated!
If the 1.59x correlation holds:
At BTC $85,000: MSTR should hit ≈ $317
At BTC $90,000: MSTR should reach ≈ $343
Please note that we're in the profit-taking preparation zone. The rapid move toward $80,500 suggests really strong momentum. The correction target ($52,000-55,000) becomes more relevant as we push higher too.
