Peter Schiff<\/strong> fired at Strategy Inc.<\/strong> on Friday, warning that retirees who put savings into STRC<\/strong> have already lost over 7% as the preferred stock trades at $92.62, well below its $100 par value target.<\/p>\n STRC Broke Its 10-Month Rising Trendline As Bitcoin Bleeds <\/p>\n \u201cSaylor better lawyer up fast,\u201d Schiff half-jokingly wrote on X.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, STRC has violated the rising trendline that held from August 2025\u2019s $81 lows through nearly 10 months of higher highs.<\/p>\n Grayscale Head of Research Zach Pandl <\/strong>argued in a Thursday note that STRC trading below $100 creates a compounding problem.<\/p>\n Don’t Miss:<\/strong><\/p>\n Strategy must raise its dividend rate to attract buyers back to par, but higher dividend obligations increase cash flow pressure, potentially forcing more Bitcoin sales, which pushes Bitcoin lower and sends STRC further below par.<\/p>\n \u201cStrategy\u2019s levered business model is under pressure, and this has increased the volatility for the BTC market as a whole,\u201d Pandl wrote, adding that Strategy\u2019s ability to accumulate more Bitcoin is now constrained at current share prices for both STRC and MSTR.<\/p>\n Strive CEO Says Selling Bitcoin Was The Right Move But Messaging Was The Problem <\/p>\n Strive Asset Management CEO Matt Cole<\/strong> told Anthony Pompliano\u2019s<\/strong> podcast that Strategy\u2019s 32 Bitcoin sale was a necessary evolution, not a capitulation.<\/p>\n Cole pointed out that Strive told investors during its SATA IPO that it could sell Bitcoin when appropriate.<\/p>\n He argued that Strategy should do the same to maximize total returns instead of limiting itself with its own “never sell” messaging.<\/p>\n Cole predicted Strategy will be a net Bitcoin buyer every month going forward, arguing the critics predicting an avalanche of future sales will look wrong within a year.<\/p>\n Trending: Avoid the #1 Investing Mistake: How Your \u2018Safe’ Holdings Could Be Costing You Big Time<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n He also noted SATA and STRC have maintained positive total returns since launch despite Bitcoin falling over 50% from its peak, which he called proof that digital credit works as a low-volatility instrument in a bear market.<\/p>\n STRC Technical Picture Points To $86-$88 If Bitcoin Continues Lower <\/p>\n The broken trendline now acts as resistance overhead. If Bitcoin stabilizes, STRC likely bounces toward $96 to $98 quickly.<\/p>\n However, if Bitcoin continues lower, the prior support zone from December consolidation at $86 to $88 becomes the next target to watch.<\/p>\n Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n Read Next:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Building Wealth Across More Than Just the Market<\/strong> <\/p>\n Building a resilient portfolio means thinking beyond a single asset or market trend. Economic cycles shift, sectors rise and fall, and no one investment performs well in every environment. That’s why many investors look to diversify with platforms that provide access to real estate, fixed-income opportunities, precious metals, and even self-directed retirement accounts. By spreading exposure across multiple asset classes, it becomes easier to manage risk, capture steady returns, and create long-term wealth that isn’t tied to the fortunes of just one company or industry.<\/p>\n Arrived<\/strong> <\/p>\n Backed by Jeff Bezos, Arrived Homes makes real estate investing accessible with a low barrier to entry.
