Q2 Earnings: Massive Gains Driven by Bitcoin
Strategy’s Q2 financials were eye-popping:
- Operating Income: $14.03 billion
- Net Income: $10.02 billion
- The surge was fueled by $14 billion in unrealized gains from its Bitcoin holdings
The company now holds 628,791 BTC, acquired at an average cost of $73,277 per coin, with total digital assets valued at $64.4 billion.
Why the Stock Is Falling
Despite stellar earnings, Strategy’s stock is under pressure due to Bitcoin’s recent price retreat:
- BTC rallied from $81,000 to $108,000 in Q2, boosting unrealized gains
- But since peaking on July 14, Bitcoin has pulled back, now trading near $117,740, down from its highs
- This decline threatens future unrealized gains and has spooked investors, leading to a sell-off in BTC-linked equities
