Bitcoin price today steadies near $91,000 as Strategy stock climbs on MSCI index reprieve

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 14:11 EST — Regular session Bitcoin steadied on Thursday after an early dip, while shares of Strategy (MSTR) rose with other crypto-linked stocks as investors digested MSCI’s latest move on index eligibility. Bitcoin was up about 0.4% at $91,152, after touching $89,312 earlier in the session, while Strategy gained about 4.7% and Coinbase added about 0.6%. Marathon Digital rose about 3.8%, while Riot Platforms slipped about 0.5%. The moves matter because stocks like Strategy have become a stand-in for direct bitcoin exposure for investors who would rather trade equities than tokens. When bitcoin swings, these

Strategy Inc stock climbs after MSCI index reprieve — what MSTR traders watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 11:21 EST — Regular session Strategy Inc shares rose on Thursday as investors digested MSCI’s decision to keep so-called digital asset treasury companies in its global benchmarks, at least through the next review. The move matters because index membership can drive forced buying and selling from funds that track benchmarks. Losing that slot can turn into a mechanical hit, especially for stocks that already trade like crypto proxies. MSCI is keeping the group in for now, but it is also tightening the screws. The index provider said it plans a broader consultation on “non-operating” companies,

Strategy Inc stock rises after MSCI drops plan to kick bitcoin-treasury firms out of indexes

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 16:40 EST — After-hours Strategy (MSTR.O) was up 2.5% at $161.83 in after-hours trading on Wednesday after MSCI scrapped a plan to exclude digital-asset treasury companies from its indexes. MSCI said it would keep its current approach — covering Strategy, which it lists as a firm whose digital-asset holdings are at least half of total assets — while it launches a broader review; Strategy said the policy would hold for MSCI’s February 2026 index review. Bitcoin fell 2.7% to $90,986, and Strategy’s shares were down about 47.5% last year. Reuters That matters because MSCI’s benchmarks

Crypto stocks and Bitcoin ETFs wobble premarket after MSCI shelves crypto-treasury exclusion plan

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 07:33 (EST) — Premarket MSCI said it will not proceed with a proposal to exclude digital asset treasury companies — firms whose digital asset holdings make up 50% or more of total assets — from its indexes, opting instead for a broader consultation on how non-operating companies should be treated. Reuters That matters because index rules are not academic. Passive funds and benchmark trackers buy and sell when lists change, and the trade can spill into other crypto proxies fast. The timing is awkward, too. The first-week bounce in crypto has cooled, and the mood has

Strategy stock rises premarket after MSCI backs off crypto index purge

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 07:12 EST — Premarket Shares of Strategy rose about 4% in premarket trading on Wednesday after MSCI dropped a proposal that could have pushed the bitcoin-heavy company out of its benchmarks. “We suspect exclusion is postponed until later in the year,” JonesTrading chief market strategist Mike O’Rourke said. Reuters The move matters because Strategy sits in a wide range of index-tracking portfolios. A removal from major indexes can force passive funds to sell, adding pressure to a stock that already trades like a high-volatility proxy for bitcoin. MSCI’s decision also buys time for a fast-growing

No $2,000 IRS stimulus check is coming in February 2026 — but Trump’s tariff-check talk keeps the rumors alive
