Banks gotta get that exposure too
Quote:Morgan Stanley now owns 792,627 shares of MicroStrategy, bringing its total ownership in the company best known for holding over $2 billion in bitcoin to 10.9%, according to a filing made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
They've increased their position by adding almost 650,000 shares since Q3 2020.
The shares of MicroStrategy have soared 330% since the company bought its first bitcoin on Aug. 11, 2020, rising from $123.80 to $539.57.
"Why didn't Morgan Stanley just buy Bitcoin?"They legally can’t unless they rewrite their charter. That takes 24 months on average to be approved.
So they fomo buy into a company that is essentially a Bitcoin ETF at this point.
