$MSTR is sinking this morning 👀 AIME, our proprietary AI flags three key drivers: 1. Index reclassification risks that could trigger $8B in passive outflows. 2. A steep cut to 2025 earnings guidance. 3. A broader risk-off tone as #Bitcoin falls below $90K.

Chief Bovino is not a political appointee. He is a civil servant, subject to the same requirements to be nonpartisan as any other employee. These messages are being broadcast from an official government account.
