Michael Saylor: STRC Volatility Hits Historic Low of 1.5%, While Delivering High Returns

2 hours ago

March 18 — Strategy founder Michael Saylor noted that STRC, the firm’s perpetual preferred stock, has hit an all-time low volatility of 1.5%—pushing its Sharpe ratio to a record high of 5.37, setting a new benchmark for risk-adjusted performance. Per STRC’s official data dashboard, the stock currently trades at $99.88 with an effective yield of 11.51%. Its 30-day historical volatility stands at a new low of 1.5%, while the Sharpe ratio has reached 5.37—underscoring STRC’s ability to deliver high returns with low risk. BlockBeats Note: STRC is a floating-rate perpetual preferred stock issued by Strategy, positioned as a short-term high-yield credit product. It trades around $100, pays monthly cash dividends, and adjusts its dividend yield monthly. Strategy funds Bitcoin purchases by issuing new STRC, leveraging the common perception that MSTR’s total BTC holdings should exceed its market cap to boost its listed valuation. Continuous STRC issuances aim to create a positive spiral. Leveraged internalization amplifies MSTR’s price volatility relative to BTC, representing a leveraged Bitcoin investment strategy.

CZ: Lack of Competition in the US Domestic Crypto Market, High Trading Platform Fees

**Binance’s CZ: Crypto Entrepreneurs Returning to U.S., Policy More Positive Than Expected** On March 18, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) told the DC Blockchain Summit that crypto entrepreneurs who previously operated offshore are now returning to the U.S.—citing the country’s strong innovation ecosystem, venture capital, Silicon Valley talent, Wall Street financial infrastructure, and funding advantages. He noted U.S. crypto policy is currently far more positive than he anticipated: “I didn’t expect the U.S. to become so crypto-friendly in 2-3 years.” Stressing the U.S. is rooted in free-market capitalism, CZ added competition is the best consumer protection (a view shared by some influential U.S. figures). From a trading platform operator’s perspective, he pointed out U.S. crypto exchanges charge excessively high fees, leaving American consumers with worse prices than international markets. This explains why the U.S. lacks the main crypto liquidity pool—unlike traditiona

Trump Grants Jones Act Waiver to Curb High Gas Prices

The Trump administration on March 18 temporarily waived the century-old Jones Act — a shipping mandate — to lower U.S. domestic transportation costs for oil, natural gas and other commodities. The move marks its latest effort to address an energy price surge spurred by the Iran conflict. Foreign-flagged vessels will be permitted to transport a range of goods between U.S. ports over the next 60 days, per White House officials. Covered products include coal, crude oil, refined petroleum, natural gas, natural gas liquids, fertilizers, other energy derivatives, and items primarily derived from refined petroleum. Some analysts, however, expect the waiver to have only limited impact given the scale of supply chain disruptions. (FX678)
