Strategy vs. MARA Holdings: Which Bitcoin-Focused Stock Has an Edge?

MicroStrategy MSTR, doing business as 'Strategy,' and MARA Holdings MARA are two well-known Bitcoin-focused stocks. While Strategy is the world's largest Bitcoin treasury company, holding 592,100 Bitcoins as of June 15, 2025, MARA Holdings is a pure-play Bitcoin the most popular cryptocurrency, has been soaring due to increasing acceptance as a non-sovereign asset, as well as higher institutional and corporate adoption. Bitcoin hit an all-time high of $111,695 in May, apparently benefiting from easing trade tensions between the United States and China, as well as Moody's downgrade of U.S. sovereign debt, which reflected the digital currency's growing recognition as a store of value. The liberal policies of U.S. President Donald Trump have been benefiting Bitcoin and other crypto assets. An executive order by President Trump, which directed a working group to study and propose changes to cryptocurrency regulations, bodes well for crypto enthusiasts. In March, President Trump announced the creation of a crypto reserve, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana and Cardano, which augurs well for cryptocurrency-focused stocks, including Strategy and MARA the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, as well as the increasing chances of U.S. involvement, has aggravated volatility. Bitcoin stooped to $103,00 but recovered to trade above $106,000, lower than the all-time high, much higher than the $76,000 it registered in early April. Moreover, macroeconomic challenges, including higher tariffs, are concerning for both stocks. In the past week, MSTR and MARA shares have dropped 2.8% and 8.4%, respectively.

As of April 28, 2025, MSTR raised $6.6 billion through equity offerings and $3.4 billion through fixed income ($2 billion from convertible notes, and $0.7 billion each through Strike and Strife).Strategy has issued $20.9 billion in equities and $6.4 billion in fixed-income securities as part of its 21/21 plan since Oct. 30, 2024.

DHL Express halts operations as anti-replacement worker bill takes effect amid strike

MONTREAL — DHL Express Canada shut down operations early Friday morning amid a strike and lockout, halting thousands of daily parcel deliveries across the country. The work stoppage involving 2,100 truck drivers and other workers comes the same day that legislation banning replacement workers takes effect. DHL has tied the shutdown to stalled negotiations with Unifor as well as the revised rules, which bar new hires from filling the role of federally regulated employees who are on strike or locked out. The German-owned courier, whose 50,000 customers in Canada include Lululemon, Shein and Siemens, continued operations for the first dozen days of the work stoppage but began to wind down earlier this week as the legislation loomed. Unifor president Lana Payne says the company brought in replacement workers — a claim DHL has not denied — in a move she said was legal at the time but undermining fair wages. Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu said she met with both sides on Wednesday after DHL asked her last week to intervene in the standoff by compelling work to resume.
