MSCI index rule change could force billions in Strategy Inc. sales

MSCI adopted new criteria that may remove Strategy Inc. from global equity benchmarks. The decision potentially triggers multi-billion dollar stock sales and pressures the financing structure supporting Michael Saylor's Bitcoin holdings.

The mechanics: Index exclusion forces passive funds tracking MSCI benchmarks to sell their positions. Strategy Inc. shares face forced liquidation across institutional portfolios. The broader impact hits Saylor's collateral-dependent Bitcoin acquisition strategy, which relies on company equity valuations for financing.
