According to Google Finance, MicroStrategy shares finished at $455.90, marking a 21.52% increase over the last month. Bitcoin itself rose 10% in the same period, briefly climbing to $122,884 on Monday before pulling back to $118,413 at press time, based on data from Nansen.

Options trader Sean Trades stated on X that MSTR is “gearing up for the next leg to all-time highs.” Despite the record market cap, the company’s stock is still 19% below its highest price of $543, set in November. MicroStrategy has increased its Bitcoin holdings by issuing new shares to raise funds.

Jeff Walton from Strive Funds noted on X that this marks the 11th consecutive day MicroStrategy has met S&P 500 eligibility criteria. In a Financial Times documentary, Walton predicted the company could become the “number one publicly traded equity in the entire market” because of its Bitcoin-driven financial outlook.

A filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday revealed that MicroStrategy acquired 4,225 more Bitcoin for $472.5 million last week. The company will publish its next earnings report on August 5. It has reported net losses for each of the past three quarters.
