MicroStrategy's stock has surged 546% this year, pushing its market cap to $99.4 billion, largely due to its substantial Bitcoin holdings of 439,000 BTC. If Bitcoin reaches $138,000, MicroStrategy could surpass Starbucks and Nike in market valuation, with a potential market cap of $114 billion. Analysts suggest that the company's debt, currently at $7 billion, is manageable compared to its Bitcoin assets valued at around $47 billion, although concerns about its debt-based acquisition strategy persist.

CoinShares predicts a significant overhaul in U.S. crypto regulation under the Trump administration in 2025, favoring Bitcoin (BTC) while altcoins may outperform in the near term. The rise of Bitcoin-yielding companies and Ethereum's Layer 2 solutions are also expected to shape the market, with businesses increasingly adopting Bitcoin as a treasury asset to generate returns. As major companies begin accepting crypto payments, BTC is positioned as both a store of value and a source of passive income.
Animoca Brands chairman Yat Siu predicts a resurgence in non-fungible tokens (NFTs), expecting them to surpass their 2021 peak, despite recent declines in sales volumes and project closures.

CoinShares predicts a significant rise in Bitcoin yield solutions by 2025, driven by corporate finance's growing adoption of Bitcoin as a treasury asset.

Chapin Davis Inc. and Meridian Financial Partners LLC increased their stakes in NIKE by 1.2% and 1.6%, respectively, during the 3rd quarter, with hedge funds owning 64.25% of the stock. Analysts have lowered NIKE's price target, with a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" and a target of $95.46, while the stock currently trades at $77.67. NIKE reported a quarterly EPS of $0.70, exceeding estimates, but revenue declined 10.4% year-over-year.
UBS has warned that Nike's upcoming earnings report may act as a negative catalyst, predicting weak Q3 guidance and EPS projections below market expectations due to deteriorating global sales trends. The bank estimates EPS guidance between $0.47 and $0.57, below the consensus of $0.55-$0.65. Despite recent underperformance, some investors remain optimistic about a recovery, though UBS cautions that these expectations may be premature, given challenges in U.S. sales, European underperformance, and declining global search trends.
