Bitcoin Price Prediction: Impact of MicroStrategy’s $7B Short Positions and NFP Data
Bitcoin Price Prediction
During the US session, Bitcoin fell dramatically to $69,000 following the release of stronger than expected US NFp figures.
MicroStrategy, known for holding a large amount of Bitcoin, is dealing with significant short positions valued at nearly $7 billion.
Despite a notable decline in short-seller interest, there are still over 18 active short positions against the company, as listed by Fintel’s “The Big Shorts.”
The decline in short positions occurs even as the company’s stock price has tripled over the past six months.
- Key Points:
- Largest short position: $2.4 billion.
- MSTR stock has surged by 469% in the past year.
This decrease in short-seller confidence could suggest a lesser risk of a short squeeze, which occurs when short-sellers rush to buy back stock to cover their positions, potentially driving prices even higher.
