Strategy & Metaplanet Index Removal Takes Effect

MSCI (MSTR) · TradFi · November 30, 2026

MSCI's deletion of Strategy (MSTR) from its Global Standard Indexes and Metaplanet from its Small Cap Indexes takes effect at the close of November 30, 2026, when index-tracking funds rebalance.

MSCI published its November 2026 index review on November 11, 2026, confirming the removal of non-operating digital asset treasury companies flagged in its consultation. Strategy (STRATEGY A, MSTR) is deleted from the MSCI Global Standard Indexes and was not moved to the Small Cap segment, so it leaves the MSCI universe entirely. Metaplanet is deleted from the MSCI Japan Small Cap Indexes, and Upexi leaves the US Micro Cap index. All changes are effective as of the close of business on November 30, 2026, which is when passive funds tracking MSCI benchmarks have to sell the positions. Strategy is the largest corporate bitcoin holder, so the rebalance day is the key date for MSTR liquidity and for the wider crypto treasury company trade. The announcement itself is listed separately on Cryptolaxy (MSCI final exclusion list, November 11).
