MicroStrategy's 'Nav Premium' Shouldn't be Feared, Says Benchmark, Raising Price Target to $245

Benchmark believes MicroStrategy’s business model justifies the premium to NAV and that traders should focus on the company’s BTC Yield. Introduced by Saylor and team earlier this year, Bitcoin Yield tracks the effectiveness of bitcoin investments by measuring the percentage change over time of the ratio between MSTR’s bitcoin holdings and its fully diluted share count. The Bitcoin Yield stood at 17.8% through September 19 compared to 1.8% and 7.3% in 2022 and 2023, respectively, according to Benchmark’s data.
