Additionally, 49,374 STRK preferred shares were sold for $4.9 million, yielding $4.4 million in proceeds.

Further sales included 29,065 STRD preferred shares for $2.9 million, which generated $2.3 million. The company also sold 183,501 MSTR common shares, bringing in $54.4 million in proceeds.

As of early November, Strategy reported significant remaining capacity under its active ATM programs. This includes approximately $1.7 billion for STRF, $4.2 billion for STRC, $20.3 billion for STRK, $4.1 billion for STRD, and $15.9 billion for MSTR.
