MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) shares are trading lower Thursday driven by a Bitcoin pullback and investor reaction to the company's plans to issue additional shares to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/12/42684275/microstrategy-portland-general-electric-and-other-big-stocks-moving-lower-in-thursdays-pre-market-session">fund further Bitcoin purchases.</a>
What To Know: In a filing with the SEC, the company proposed increasing its authorized Class A common stock from 330 million to 10.33 billion units and preferred stock from 5 million to over 1 billion units. This move is intended to support the company's strategy of accumulating Bitcoin, a cornerstone of its transition from software to cryptocurrency investment.
Bitcoin's recent volatility, with a peak near $100,000 and subsequent fluctuations, has added pressure on MicroStrategy's stock. The company recently acquired $561 million worth of Bitcoin, bringing its total holdings to approximately $40 billion. However, its aggressive Bitcoin purchases and reliance on stock issuance to fund acquisitions have drawn investor scrutiny.
MicroStrategy shares have faced significant challenges, including a more than 37% decline from their all-time high and an 8.5% drop following their inclusion in the Nasdaq 100. The ongoing stock issuance and Bitcoin market volatility continue to weigh on investor sentiment.
MSTR Price Action: MicroStrategy shares were down 4.16% at $343.06 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Markets are always trending. They are either going up, down, or sideways. If a market is trending higher the bulls are in control. If it is heading lower, the bears are in charge. If they go sideways, the bears and bulls have equal strength.
Sometimes, when the leadership changes from bears to bulls or bulls to bears, the price action can appear on a chart as a reversal pattern.
If the change occurs in one day, a reversal day pattern may appear. If it takes place over a few days, a V or Inverted V pattern may show up.

If the change is slow and steady over an extended time, it may create a rounded top or rounded bottom pattern.
As you can see on the chart, a rounded bottom formed in Lucid. The bulls slowly took charge in November and the stock has been rallying since.

There is resistance at the $3.25 level because it was previously support. Resistance forming at prices that had been support is a common occurrence in the stock market. It happens because of buyer's remorse.
There are traders and investors who purchased shares while they were at support who came to regret doing so when the support broke and the price moved lower. A number of these remorseful buyers decided to exit their positions if they can do so at breakeven.
As a result, now that the stock has rallied back to their buying prices, they are placing sell orders. This has caused resistance to form at the level that had been support.
If the stock gets above and stays above this resistance, traders will call it a breakout. This is a bullish dynamic because it shows that the sellers who created the resistance are out of the way. They have finished or canceled their orders.
This may set the stage for a move higher. Buyers will need to bid premiums to draw sellers back into the market. This could force the stock into a new uptrend and that may be about to happen with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LCID">Lucid</a>.

<h2>The Core of Analyst Ratings: What Every Investor Should Know</h2>
Analysts work in banking and financial systems and typically specialize in reporting for stocks or defined sectors. Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Beyond their standard evaluations, some analysts contribute predictions for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, furnishing investors with additional guidance. Users of analyst ratings should be mindful that this specialized advice is shaped by human perspectives and may be subject to variability.

The company recently reported that it has 23.14 million shares sold short, which is 2.5% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, IBM's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.15%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
