Strategy shares fall 4% on warning of MSCI World exclusion

  • —Strategy shares dropped 4% in after-hours trading on the MSCI World exclusion risk
  • —MSCI's new methodology screens out firms whose operating assets are under 50% of total assets
  • —The final list of excluded companies will be published November 11, rebalance effective November 30, 2026
  • —Strategy's free-float-adjusted market cap is around $40 billion, the largest on the preliminary list
Why it matters: Removal from the MSCI World would force passive funds to sell Strategy shares, hitting the largest bitcoin treasury company and indirectly BTC.
