MicroStrategy's Bitcoin investment exceeds 10 billion US dollars, holding 190,000 Bitcoins

As the price of Bitcoin breaks through $50,000, MicroStrategy's total number of Bitcoins held has reached 190,000, with an investment exceeding $10 billion. Since entering the Bitcoin market in August 2020, the value of MicroStrategy's Bitcoin holdings has exceeded $10 billion. Despite a sluggish market at the beginning of 2022, the company has been increasing its Bitcoin holdings. Although revenue and gross profit declined in the fourth quarter, the company's bitcoin holdings significantly increased.
 
In January, Executive Chairman Michael Saylor announced that he had purchased 850 bitcoins worth $37.2 million. Even though MSTR stock fell by 16% after launching a Bitcoin ETF, Saylor expressed his willingness to sell his personal MSTR shares to buy more Bitcoins. The company believes that Bitcoin is superior to government bonds in terms of returns and therefore decided to switch from government bonds to Bitcoin. Michael Saylor even advocates for potential benefits of using bitcoin as a hedge against inflation. MicroStrategy’s amount of bitcoin exceeds all nine newly launched bitcoin ETFs combined and accounts for nearly 1% of all circulating bitcoins.

Crude oil is "coming back", but refined oil is "not coming back"; the global refining gap is widening.

According to Goldman Sachs, global refined oil exports have declined by about 6 million barrels per day year-on-year, with the Gulf region and Russia contributing three-quarters of the decrease. Unlike crude oil, which can be rerouted, damaged refineries cannot be relocated, and the Gulf region's refined oil exports have only recovered to 40% of pre-war levels. Goldman Sachs expects global refinery utilization rates to recover only by the second half of 2027; based on this, it has more than doubled its forecast for diesel profit margins in 2027.
