FBI Director Kash Patel's Undisclosed Stock Buy in Bitcoin Giant Strategy Is Down 44%
FBI Director Kash Patel has seen his stake in Strategy collapse since making a sizable, previously undisclosed investment in the Bitcoin treasury firm last November.
Patel bought between $100,000 and $250,000 worth of stock in the Michael Saylor-founded company on November 21, according to new government filings. MSTR was trading around $181 at the time. The stock has since collapsed over 44%, to $100.55 at writing.
The FBI director did not initially disclose his investment in Strategy. He amended a required disclosure form in late May to include the Strategy buy, which he claimed were “inadvertently omitted,” according to filings obtained by NOTUS .
The stock buy should have been noted in a financial disclosure signed by Patel in early December. Under federal law, certain government employees, the FBI director included, must report securities transactions above $1,000 within 45 days.
In the intervening months, assuming he hasn’t sold the position, Patel’s investment in Strategy has lost him anywhere between $44,000 and $110,000.
The company, Wall Street’s most prominent crypto treasury firm, has stockpiled over 847,000 BTC, a sum worth over $52 billion at current prices. Strategy’s crypto-stashing model, while immensely successful when Bitcoin’s price is up, has hemorrhaged value amidst the crypto market’s monthslong downturn.
In the last year, Bitcoin’s price has fallen by over 41%, from north of $106,000 to $61,933 at writing. In the same period, Strategy’s price has plummeted as well—but even more sharply.
The Bitcoin treasury company’s stock soared above $442 last summer, on Bitcoin’s surging price and hype surrounding the token. It has since collapsed by over 77%.
Earlier this week, analysts slashed price targets for Strategy down from $400 to $260, chiefly due to Bitcoin's “observed ongoing weakness.”
