On April 24, Jin10 reported that a survey released on Friday indicated a decline in U.S. consumer confidence in April, reaching its lowest level in nearly four years due to inflation concerns exacerbated by the Iran conflict. According to Jin10, the University of Michigan's Consumer Survey Center stated that its consumer confidence index's final reading for the month was 49.8, marking the lowest point since June 2022. However, this figure showed an improvement from the earlier April reading of 47.6. In March, the index stood at 53.3. "Following the announcement of a two-week ceasefire agreement and a slight decrease in gasoline prices, consumer confidence has partially recovered from the early month's decline," said Joanne Hsu, director of the Consumer Survey Center. "The Iran conflict appears to impact consumer perceptions primarily through its effects on gasoline prices and other potential costs. In contrast, military and diplomatic developments that fail to alleviate supply constraints or reduce energy prices are unlikely to boost consumer confidence."

This purchase positions Strategy ahead of BlackRock's IBIT fund, marking the first time since the second quarter of 2024 that Strategy has become the largest institutional Bitcoin holder.
