Strategy Maintains STRC Dividend at 11.5% as Stock Rebounds

Strategy has kept the dividend rate of its perpetual preferred stock STRC unchanged at 11.5% for May, marking the third consecutive month at this level. The decision follows an April volume-weighted average price of $99.76, close to the $100 par value that guides dividend adjustments.

STRC Price Stability Supports Dividend Decision

STRC is currently trading near $99.75 and has remained slightly below its par value since mid-April. Historically, the stock tends to revert toward $100, and similar patterns suggest a potential move back to par in the near term. Since its launch in July 2025 with a 9% yield, STRC has seen gradual increases as the firm aims to stabilize pricing and maintain investor appeal.

MSTR Posts First Monthly Gain in Nine Months

Strategy’s common stock, MSTR, delivered a strong recovery in April, rising 33% to close around $165. This marks its first positive monthly performance after eight consecutive months of losses, during which the stock declined by roughly 75%.

Bitcoin Rally Adds Momentum to Recovery

The rebound coincided with a broader rise in Bitcoin, which gained approximately 12% in April — its best monthly performance in a year. Strategy is also exploring a shift toward semi-monthly dividend payments for STRC, a move aimed at reducing volatility and improving consistency for investors.
