MicroStrategy was attacked by short sellers and fell 16%

Although the recent trend is good, MicroStrategy, which is the largest holding of 00909, is facing short-selling attacks.

Citron Research, a well-known short-selling research institution, said it has shorted micro-strategy stocks, according to (Bloomberg) reports. After the news broke, MicroStrategy's stock price fell 16%, closing at about $397, the largest one-day drop since April 30.

Citron Research pointed out that with the launch of Bitcoin ETFs, investors can invest directly in such funds and no longer need to use micro-strategy stocks as proxy tools for investing in Bitcoin. The agency stated that although they are optimistic about the prospects of Bitcoin, they still choose to short the micro strategy to avoid risks.

In fact, Citron Research is not the first to recommend shorting the micro strategy. In March of this year, Kerrisdale Capital Management stated that it was simultaneously long Bitcoin and short micro-strategy stocks.

Despite this, MicroStrategy’s stock price has risen more than 500% this year, driven by Bitcoin’s breakthrough to $98,000, and its market value once exceeded $100 billion, which is equivalent to the top 100 companies in the S&P Index.

Analysts revealed to foreign media (Cointelegraph) that MicroStrategy’s share price is expected to rise further, and its market value is even expected to surpass that of chip maker Intel.
