Is it Time to Tap MicroStrategy ETFs Amid Bitcoin Surge?
Read MoreHide Full Article
With Bitcoin prices soaring to new highs, TD Cowen analyst Lance Vitanza has recently increased his price target for MicroStrategy shares to $680, up from the previous target of $590, as quoted on CNBC. Several companies have attempted to replicate MicroStrategy’s (also known as Strategy) business model, but Vitanza emphasized that none can rival the company’s cost of capital advantage.
Strategy has uniquely leveraged a diverse array of securities to raise funds for acquiring Bitcoin, giving it a strategic edge in the market. MicroStrategy – the software and bitcoin-treasury company – said it now owns more than 600,000 bitcoins, valued in excess of $70 billion at current prices. It disclosed that it has resumed buying Bitcoin, as prices surged further into record territory.
Bitcoin Momentum Fuels Optimism
TD Cowen’s bullish outlook is driven by expectations of continued Bitcoin price appreciation and MicroStrategy’s aggressive pace of Bitcoin accumulation. On Monday, Bitcoin hit a new all-time high of $123,000, fueled by strong inflows into Bitcoin ETFs. Although it has since dipped slightly to $120,437.06, the overall trend remains upward.
MicroStrategy Stock Performance
MicroStrategy shares have rallied about 54% year to date, reflecting growing investor confidence in the company’s crypto-centric strategy. Even before TD Cowen boosted its target price for MicroStrategy, the average price target for MicroStrategy was $534.77 (offered by 13 analysts). The forecasts ranged from a low of $175.00 to a high of $650.00. The average price target represented a 23.05% increase from the last closing price of $434.58, recorded on July 11, 2025. The stock, however, surged 3.1% on July 15, 2025.
