MicroStrategy (MSTR) is on the verge of joining the S&P 500 after meeting all necessary criteria as of August 21, 2025. The company, led by Michael Saylor, has achieved the required market capitalization, trading activity, and profitability standards. With a market value of $95.95 billion, significantly above the $8.2 billion threshold, MicroStrategy's inclusion could attract over $10 billion in inflows from index funds. The decision now rests with the S&P committee. MicroStrategy's unique strategy of acquiring Bitcoin, with holdings of 629,376 BTC, sets it apart from other firms. Recent Bitcoin purchases were funded through preferred stock sales, underscoring its commitment to a Bitcoin-centric approach. The stock's performance remains closely linked to Bitcoin's market trends.
