MSTR Stock Price Predicted to Surge 265% Despite 64.68% Yearly Decline
MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR), once known as MicroStrategy, currently trades near $119.25 after falling 21.52% year to date and 64.68% over one year. Despite this decline, Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer still sees a potential 265% upside in the company's stock price.
Palmer's active price target sits at $435, which he achieved by cutting his previous target from $570 while keeping his Buy rating intact. This revised target implies a triple from current levels and requires bitcoin to normalize and the reflexive premium mechanism to reassert itself.
The company holds 846,000 BTC as of Q2 2026 and has become a leveraged bitcoin proxy, with shares moving harder than the coin in both directions. Strategy's balance sheet took an $8.32 billion unrealized loss on digital assets in Q2 2026, driving a net loss of $8.22 billion and reported EPS of -$24.45 against a $3.0743 consensus.
