Michael Saylor’s Strategy in Trouble? MSCI’s New Rules Put Index Status at Risk
A May 2026 test identified Strategy, Metaplanet, and Yellow Cake as potential candidates for removal from MSCI's index.
MSCI's new index rules could remove Michael Saylor's Strategy, along with Metaplanet and Yellow Cake, from its indexes based on a May 2026 test. Strategy is the largest corporate holder of bitcoin, so an index removal would likely force passive funds to sell the stock and could pressure its ability to raise capital for further BTC purchases. Traders care because a forced unwind of a major bitcoin proxy could weigh on sentiment and indirectly on BTC prices.
