Strategy – Still in buy mode
"Sell a kidney if you must, but keep the bitcoin!" posted Strategy founder Michael Saylor last week after the world's largest cryptocurrency lost almost 20% of its value in just five days. The fact that he had kept his bitcoins paid off over the weekend. On Sunday, US President Donald Trump announced that in addition to Bitcoin and Ethereum, the altcoins Solana, XRP, and Cardano would, in future, be part of the strategic cryptocurrency reserve in the United States.
After the post went out via the in-house "Truth Social" platform, the altcoins, in particular, exploded. Cardano rose by almost 60% at its peak, XRP also recorded a plus of 23%, while Solana rose by 16%. Bitcoin ended the day with a comparatively moderate price increase of around 9% but crossed the critical resistance level at USD 89,100 and was able to minimize the previous day's losses. It would now be important for BTC to cross the resistance zone between USD 96,000 and USD 99,800. If it manages to do so, the way would be clear to the all-time high of USD 109,356.
Strategy is the largest Bitcoin hodler in the world. It recently added 20,356 BTC to its holdings, worth USD 2 billion. In total, the Company, which was once founded as a software manufacturer, owns 499,096 BTC. The average purchase price is USD 66,357 per BTC.
Credissential – Broadly positioned
Artificial intelligence is entering almost all areas of our society, making everyday life easier. The Canadian company Credissential is developing a revolution in car buying with its Dealerflow app, which offers significant advantages for both buyers and sellers. It enables brick-and-mortar car dealerships to sell vehicles entirely online and connect with one another to manage inventory levels together.
For the seller, the app is being developed to offer an AI configuration tool that makes it easy to put together the dream car. With the combination of QR codes, mobile overviews of offers, and AI-supported vehicle searches, the acquisition of the self-programmed platform, which was completed last year, should be completely digital in the future. The market for the Company, which is valued at just CAD 2.6 million, is gigantic. According to Nada Data, there are approximately 280,000 vehicle repair and maintenance centers in the US, of which about 20% also buy and sell vehicles. This suggests that scaling through the Dealerflow app has potentially high upside.
In addition to Dealerflow, Credissential owns Antenna, a payment platform that uses recently integrated quantum encryption to protect against possible cyber threats from quantum computers, which is a unique selling point. In addition, "Privy Wallet" is to be connected, which should enable crypto transactions in the near future. The app also features a buy now pay later feature
In addition to organic growth, Credissential is also looking to make strategic acquisitions. With CoinCmply, it has found a platform that focuses on crypto tax compliance, analysis, and optimization
C3.ai – Sell-off after the numbers
The specialist in AI application software for companies had to take a significant hit after the figures for the third quarter of its 2024 fiscal year, losing around 12% of its value to USD 23.81 since the announcement on Wednesday. Since the run-up with the interim high of USD 45.08 in mid-December 2024, the price loss is around 47%. Nevertheless, there is a chance of a turnaround. Currently, the stock is trading in a broad support area, and the relative strength index is well into oversold territory.
The Redwood City, California-based company reported negative earnings per share of USD 0.62. Analysts had expected a loss of only USD 0.25 per share. By contrast, sales were up 26% year-on-year at USD 98.8 million.
Nevertheless, founder and CEO Tom Siebel said the Company was on the right track and pointed to important milestones that C3.ai achieved in the third quarter. In addition to expanding its partnership with Microsoft Azure and entering into a new collaboration with McKinsey & Company QuantumBlack, 66 agreements were signed, including 50 pilot projects, representing an increase of 72% over the previous year. In addition, new and expanded contracts with the US Department of Defense, the US Air Force, the US Navy, CAE USA, and the Missile Defense Agency further strengthened federal business.
C3.ai disappointed investors with higher-than-expected losses. Strategy can benefit from Trump's statement to build a crypto reserve. Credissential is broadly diversified and could redefine the car market with its unique apps.
