KULR stock rallies on Bitcoin treasury news

KULR says that the $20 million loan it has received through Coinbase Credit has been backed up with Bitcoin it already owned, and that the new deal has provided it with additional capital without diluting its stock through new share sales. While the announcement initially powered an explosive rally for the stock, the gains have largely faded as investors have had more time to digest the news.

What's next for KULR stock?

KULR stock has been highly volatile over the last year, and it's likely that the company's share price will continue to see big swings in the near term. The initial surge for the stock today despite the news of the $20 million loan being relatively minor in the grand scheme of things reflects the potential for KULR to see big pops on relatively small news, but the subsequent sell-off also reflects the high-risk nature of the stock.

KULR has pivoted to being a Bitcoin-focused company and is seemingly aiming to replicate elements of the game plan that Strategy (formerly known as MicroStrategy) has been able to successfully orchestrate. Along with meme stock-related momentum, news about Bitcoin acquisitions and financing pushes could cause spikes for the company's valuation. On the other hand, successful execution over the long term is no sure thing -- and the stock looks risky.
