Michael Saylor’s Strategy announced it had bought $1.42 billion worth of Bitcoin just as the Crypto Fear and Greed Index flipped to “Greed,” signaling a bullish shift in sentiment.

In an April 28 announcement, Strategy said it acquired 15,355 Bitcoin between April 21 and 27 at an average purchase price of $92,737 per BTC. Since the massive Bitcoin buy, which is the firm’s largest since late March, the price of Bitcoin has risen to trade at $94,495.11 as of 1:10 a.m. EST.

The move comes just ahead of Wednesday’s release of US Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) data, a key measure of inflation that may give clues about how much room the Fed has to adjust interest rates.

Strategy Bitcoin Yield At 13.7%
