Institutions Report $180M Net Rise in Strategy’s MSTR Stock Holdings in Two Weeks
Michael J. Saylor, American entrepreneur and former CEO of MicroStrategy

Several institutional investment managers and U.S. public pension funds disclosed increased or new positions in Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) in Form 13F filings submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. 

The reported net additions across these filings equate to additional holdings valued at approximately $180 million when measured against recent share prices.

AI Summary
Show
Institutional managers added $180 million in Strategy Inc. holdings through share purchases and expansions in Q2 2026
Amundi and State Street Corporation led the increases with 148% and 7.4 million share expansions respectively
Filings show a mix of new and increased positions, with MSA Advisors LLC taking a new 32,290 share stake valued at $4.03 million

These regulatory filings require institutional managers with more than $100 million in qualifying assets to report equity holdings as of the quarter’s end and do not disclose the exact dates or prices of individual transactions.

Institutional Managers Expand Positions

According to Form 13F filings covering the period ended June 30, 2026, Amundi reported holding approximately 1.32 million shares of Strategy Inc. This represented an increase of 148% from the roughly 532,000 shares disclosed for the prior quarter. The position was valued near $115 million in the filing materials. 

State Street Corporation disclosed an addition of 506,635 shares, bringing its total reported holding to about 7.53 million shares. A filing associated with Citibank showed the purchase of an additional 238,538 shares, resulting in a total of approximately 961,554 shares valued at about $90.5 million. MSA Advisors LLC reported a new position of 32,290 shares valued at roughly $4.03 million.

These share-count changes form the bulk of the estimated $180 million in net additional exposure when calculated using recent market prices in the mid-to-upper $90s. Exact acquisition costs within the quarter are not provided in the 13F reports.

U.S. Public Pension Funds Also Increase Holdings

Public pension systems reported smaller but notable expansions. The Michigan State Retirement System disclosed a 141% increase to 14,000 shares, valued at approximately $1.34 million. 

The Louisiana State Employees’ Retirement System also reported a raise to its holding to 21,300 shares, an addition of 700 shares from the previous quarter, with a reported value in the range of $1.85 million to $2.13 million. The Police and Firemen’s Retirement System of New Jersey reported 49,055 shares valued at about $4.66 million.

Together with the larger institutional changes, these adjustments contribute to the overall approximate $180 million net increase in reported holdings across the named filers. Form 13F data reflects positions only as of June 30, 2026, and filings were submitted in the weeks that followed.

Strategy Inc. Viewed as Bitcoin Proxy

Strategy Inc. maintains a substantial Bitcoin treasury, with the company currently managing reported holdings exceeding 840,447 Bitcoin, as per BitcoinTreasuries data. Market participants commonly regard the company’s shares as a proxy for Bitcoin exposure because a significant portion of its balance-sheet value is linked to those holdings. 

Due to the firm’s use of equity and preferred-stock offerings to acquire additional Bitcoin, the stock has in various periods produced percentage gains or losses that exceeded the corresponding moves in Bitcoin itself. This amplification arises from the structure of the company’s capital and treasury strategy.

The approximately $180 million figure for net share increases is an estimate derived from the reported changes in share counts multiplied by recent trading prices; it is not a precise sum of capital deployed on specific dates.
