How a Tweet and a Bitcoin Bounce Revived Strive’s Stock

A single tweet, a cheap valuation, and a stronger Bitcoin — that was all it took to light a fire under Strive Asset Management (ASST) shares.

After languishing under $0.80 last week, Strive surged more than 30% to $1.46 Monday as investor Mike Alfred revealed on X he’d bought over 1 million shares, calling the firm “one of the most promising BTC treasury companies.”

Retail traders quickly followed, pushing ASST into WallStreetBets’ trending tickers list. The stock’s resurgence also lifted Semler Scientific (SMLR), Strive’s soon-to-be merger partner, which rose 18% in premarket trading.

The rally marks a dramatic turnaround after weeks of declines triggered by skepticism around Strive’s 210% premium offer for Semler. With Bitcoin rebounding and sentiment shifting, traders are once again betting on the combined company’s treasury strategy.
