Wall Street just cut Strategy stock price target in half
Peter Christiansen, an analyst at Citigroup Inc. (NYSE: C), has lowered his 12-month price target for Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) stock by half.
Christiansen assigned a ‘Buy’ rating for Strategy stock in a note to clients on July 1, 2026. Further, he cut his 12-month price target for MSTR stock from $260 to $130, which implies a potential upside of 51.73%.
Additionally, the Wall Street analyst cut his 12-month Bitcoin (BTC) price forecast to $81,800, citing lower expected gains for BTC, as Finbold reported. Nonetheless, the firm said Strategy’s updated capital plan strengthens its liquidity and should provide the company with more time to stabilize.
Why is Citi cautious on Strategy stock?
Citi’s analyst could be signaling caution on MSTR stock amid Strategy’s massive unrealized losses, as Finbold explained. Amid notable pressure on Strategy, which saw the company approve Bitcoin sales to boost its cash holdings, its shares have been on a nosedive.
