Strategy (MSTR) Stock Is Less Risky Now, Says Top Investor – But Is It Worth Buying?
Strategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) stock is widely seen as a proxy for Bitcoin, with the company's fortunes closely tied to the cryptocurrency's performance. After all, under Michael Saylor's leadership, accumulating as much BTC as possible has become the company's raison d'être. Confident Investing Starts Here: Over the past few years, Strategy has significantly ramped up its Bitcoin acquisition efforts, primarily by issuing convertible debt and shares. In just roughly the first five months of 2025, the company purchased 133,485 Bitcoins. As a result, Strategy now holds nearly 3 percent of the total circulating supply of Bitcoin. The company intends to continue pursuing debt-financed Bitcoin acquisitions both this year and in the future. Its recent purchases have been funded through a mix of at-the-market share offerings, which have included preferred stock. So, it's no surprise to learn that one top investor, known by the pseudonym The Asian Investor (TAI), sees Bitcoin's recent rise to a new all-time high as a welcome development that helps MSTR's investment case. 'With Bitcoin interest set to only increase going forward due to institutional adoption, I believe Bitcoin's price surge limits the risks of an investment in Strategy,' said TAI, who ranks among the top 3% of TipRanks' stock pros. (To watch The Asian Investor's track record, click here) That marks something of a change in tune. Not long ago, the investor rated MSTR shares a Strong Sell, citing the stock's 'high valuation relative to the Bitcoin price.' But with Bitcoin climbing and valuations appearing more grounded, the outlook seems to have stabilized. Still, that doesn't mean the stock is cheap. Currently, investors are paying ~3.1 times the company's GAAP book value of $121 per share. Even so, Strategy has historically commanded far higher premiums – especially during peaks of crypto market exuberance. So, does that make MSTR stock a Buy? Not quite. Yes, the valuation is more reasonable than it has been. But for one, anyone interested in buying Bitcoin can do so directly, and there are other ways to gain exposure – such as through an ETF. Additionally, the greatest risk facing Strategy is its highly leveraged Bitcoin investment approach, which leaves the company vulnerable to significant mark-to-market losses if Bitcoin's price were to drop sharply and unexpectedly. Not unheard of, for sure. So, while TAI no longer considers the stock as a Sell, he still heeds caution. 'I am still not a big fan of Strategy given its relatively irrelevant underlying intelligence business, but the resilience and recent recovery of the Bitcoin price cause me to change my stock rating to hold,' the investor summed up. Wall Street, however, sees more to like. With 12 Buys and just one Sell, Strategy stock carries a Strong Buy consensus. The average price target of $524.92 points to ~39% upside potential from current levels.

Powering AI: Here's what to know about Meta's new nuclear deal with Constellation Energy
Meta has signed a 20-year deal with Constellation Energy to keep open its Clinton Clean Energy Center nuclear facility in Illinois, a move that will help feed the tech giant's enormous power needs in the artificial intelligence era. The household auto fleet is a money pit Where are the wildfires in Canada? Maps pinpoint the location of fires and air-quality threats from smoke This company asked most corporate employees to relocate to Chicago. The majority declined The deal takes effect June 2027, right as Illinois's zero-emission credit (ZEC) program expires and the energy center loses its ratepayer-funded financial assistance for being a carbon-free facility. By keeping the plant in operation until at least 2047, the center will directly provide power to the local grid and support Meta's clean energy goals of matching its energy use with solely renewable energy. 'This deal will expand Clinton's clean energy output by 30 megawatts through plant uprates, preserve 1,100 high-paying local jobs, deliver $13.5 million in annual tax revenue, and add $1 million in charitable giving to local nonprofits over five years,' Joseph Dominguez, president and CEO of Constellation, said in a statement. Meta's deal comes as a number of Big Tech companies, including Microsoft, Amazon, and Google, are seeking out nuclear energy alternatives to power AI's growing demand. Although the center will be using the power to support the regional grid in central and southern Illinois, the tech giant will purchase 1,121 megawatts of nuclear energy from the facility, nearly all the energy the center will have the capacity to produce. Urvi Parekh, head of global energy at Meta, said the partnership will secure the clean reliable energy that is necessary to advance Meta's AI ambitions. 'We are proud to help keep the Clinton plant operating for years to come and demonstrate that this plant is an important piece to strengthening American leadership in energy,' Parekh said. Following the announcement on Tuesday, Constellation's stock price (Nasdaq: CEG) increased around 1%. However, the stock was largely flat by midafternoon. Shares in Meta Platforms (Nasdaq: META), parent company of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, were also flat on Tuesday. This post originally appeared at to get the Fast Company newsletter:

New jail funding faces community pushback
HONOLULU (KHON2) — A new jail in Hawaiʻi has many voicing their opposition as people rallied and signed a petition to the governor against it. The Reimagining Public Safety Coalition is asking Gov. Josh Green to veto House Bill 300, which gives $30 million for a facility to replace the Oʻahu Community Recreational Center. North Shore community members discuss gondola plans 'Spend a billion dollars on a new super jail to replace OCCC or implement more cost effective solutions that address the real issues that are at the heart of the crisis we see in our streets,' said Liam Chin of Reimagining Public Safety Coalition. 'Our criminal justice issues are primarily driven by a public health and affordable housing crisis.' They say the jail population can be reduced through diversion of restorative services and through pre-trial reform.'We have to make sure that we improve our facilities, because some of them are just, you know, very badly degraded,' Green said. 'It's a curious thing to petition me, because I've been constantly talking about making sure that we do restorative justice and that we are healing.' The State Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation says a new triple-C is essential and would actually help expand its programs to meet its visions of restorative justice and rehabilitation.
