B. Riley has raised its price target on Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR), pointing to a rare convergence of macro timing, Bitcoin (BTC) price momentum, and its structural capital strength as of April 29.
In a note shared with clients, the Wall Street firm raised its price target for MSTR to $200 from $188 while maintaining a Buy rating, basing the upgrade on three key factors. First, B.Riley sees the recent crypto pullback as temporary and a tactical entry point for MSTR stock ahead of the Federal Reserveβs April rate decision. Furthermore, Strategyβs stock price is highly correlated with BTCβs price, so it trades at a premium when the flagship coin drops, offering investors an attractive entry point.
The firm stated that another major driver of raising the target for MSTR was net quarter-to-date Bitcoin price gains, which lifted the value of Strategyβs BTC treasury. Additionally, B.Riley cited strong momentum in the companyβs preferred share issuance, including the STRC series with annual interest rates ranging from 8% to 11.5%, to buy more Bitcoin.
The latest upgrade follows another on April 15, when the firmβs analysts, led by Fedor Shabalin, increased MSTR targets by 7.4% to $188.
Strategy stock outlook
