- Possible $2.8 billion outflows if removed from indices.
- Bitcoin holdings place it at risk for exclusion.
- Decision expected by January 2026.
If MicroStrategy is removed from MSCI indices, there is potential for $2.8 billion in outflows from passive index funds. JPMorgan analysts highlight the impact risk on Bitcoin, as MSTR’s stock closely ties to its Bitcoin reserves.
Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy could see $2.8 billion outflows if removed from MSCI indices, warns JPMorgan.
JPMorgan highlights the risk of significant fund withdrawals for MicroStrategy, directly impacting BTC markets.
In an analysis by JPMorgan, MicroStrategy’s potential exclusion from the MSCI indices could trigger notable outflows from passive funds. The company’s leadership has not made statements regarding the process.
Michael Saylor’s leadership and MicroStrategy’s large Bitcoin reserve have turned the company into a Bitcoin proxy, raising concerns among index providers. Market reactions remain cautious, with no official announcements from Saylor or MSCI.
Strategy’s presence in indexes let Bitcoin reach traditional portfolios indirectly. This dynamic could change rapidly if MSCI removes the stock from its indices,” said Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, Analyst, JPMorgan.
JPMorgan suggests potential market instability should other indices follow MSCI’s decision, estimating total outflows could reach $11.6 billion. Analysts spotlight MicroStrategy as a significant BTC holder affecting market dynamics.
The decision could unsettle both institutional and retail investors with assets in funds tracking the MSCI indices. MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin-centric financial structure may no longer align with index criteria, as demonstrated by past exclusions.
Regulatory and industry experts remain vigilant as MSCI’s final decision draws near. The likelihood of financial shifts and market volatility looms if MicroStrategy is dropped due to concerns over their digital asset-heavy balance sheet.
