MicroStrategy earnings

MSTR earnings are today, Wednesday 10/30 at 4pm. I'm posting this as a short because there's no logical reason for MicroStrategy to have such a drastic divergence from Bitcoin since September. With BTC +68% YTD at all time high levels and MSTR +280% YTD there's just no point being long MSTR all the way up here around 260 / share. The market can stay irrational longer than I think. However, MSTR is way past the point of a good risk : reward long in my opinion. If you're not a trader and are a perma Bitcoin bull, better off selling MSTR and putting the proceeds into BTC before this thing drops. This is my bias speculation. I'm curious to see how far the market will push MSTR beyond all common sense.

Here's another reason why to short MicroStrategy. If you divide Bitcoin / MicroStrategy (BTCUSD/MSTR) you can see that Bitcoin is at it's 7 year low compared to MSTR. This just doesn't add up or make common sense people. Especially since MSTR "core" business is a failure.
