Strategy’s Bitcoin Gains

Phong Le, Strategy President and CEO, stated that the firm’s capital raising activities have led to a 25% year-to-date increase in Bitcoin per share.

“… as a result we are raising our full year BTC Yield and BTC $ Gain KPI targets to 30% and $20 billion, respectively.”

“These achievements underscore the scale of our Bitcoin treasury strategy and the strength of our capital markets platform,” he added.

On July 29, the company purchased an additional 21,021 Bitcoin at an average price of $117,256 each.

Since initiating its Bitcoin treasury strategy in 2020, MicroStrategy has acquired Bitcoin worth approximately $46.08 billion, with an average purchase price of $73,277 per BTC.

Strategy IPO

In a press release, the company stated the sale generated $2.521 billion in gross proceeds, which it claims is the largest U.S. IPO completed in 2025.

It also marks “the largest U.S. exchange-listed perpetual preferred stock offering in the U.S. since 2009,” the firm said.

Strategy described it as “the first U.S. exchange-listed perpetual preferred security issued by a Bitcoin Treasury Company to pay monthly dividends.”

On the Eve of Its U.S. Journey, SK Hynix Plummets Sharply

Just before its highly anticipated U.S. listing, SK Hynix saw its share price plummet dramatically, losing over 14% in a single day. The sell-off was triggered by market fears of a potential slowdown in AI capital expenditure. This followed a news report suggesting Meta might sell "excess AI compute," which was later amended to remove the word "excess." The initial phrasing sparked a chain reaction in investor sentiment, linking it to a potential peak in AI demand. Despite the sharp downturn, the article argues this is likely an overreaction driven by market sentiment and structural de-leveraging, rather than a fundamental reversal of the AI trend. The author points out that even if Meta proceeds, it could be an optimization of existing assets, not a systemic demand contraction. SK Hynix is in the final stages of its U.S. IPO via an ADR listing on Nasdaq, aiming to raise approximately $29.4 billion—one of the largest such offerings ever. The funds are earmarked for expanding domestic Korean production capacity for HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) and advanced packaging. A key motivation for the U.S. listing is to achieve a valuation re-rating, escaping the so-called "Korea discount" and tapping into the higher valuation multiples typically given to AI-related semiconductor stocks in the U.S. market. In conclusion, the article views the current price drop as a potential buying opportunity, suggesting the long-term industry fundamentals for SK Hynix—particularly its leading position in the crucial HBM market—remain strong. The significant capital raised from the IPO is also seen as a factor that could provide underlying support for the stock post-listing.
