MSCI will remove Strategy (MSTR) from its USA Index and Metaplanet (3350.T) from its Japan Small Cap Index at the close of Nov. 30. The removals were disclosed in filings published Wednesday, according to The Block. They follow new eligibility rules adopted last month that assess operating assets and five financial measures; Ethereum treasury company Sharplink was not listed among the deletions. Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor and Phong Le called the proposed treatment of digital asset treasuries “discriminatory.” Strategy shares fell 2.6% in after-hours trading to $119.06; Metaplanet closed Wednesday down 2.53% at 231 yen.😡😡$MSCI.US
