Why Michael Saylor's Strategy decided to make STRC's dividend bi-monthly
Summary
Strategy (MSTR) has proposed changing the dividend payment schedule for its Stretch (STRC) perpetual preferred equity from monthly to semi-monthly. The company aims to mitigate the typical price drop observed around ex-dividend dates, which often pushes the stock below its $100 par value and restricts capital raising via its at-the-market program. By smoothing price action and aligning payments with the U.S. payroll cycle, Strategy hopes to achieve more consistent bitcoin purchasing power and lower overall volatility for the asset.
