03:08 PM EST, 11/14/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Strategy (MSTR) is buying "quite a lot" of bitcoin, founder Michael Saylor told CNBC on Friday, adding that bitcoin is poised to outperform gold and the S&P 500.

Saylor, who is also the company's executive chairman, said the bitcoin holder has been accelerating its purchases and will report its next buys on Monday morning.

"I think people will be pleasantly surprised," he noted.

Comparing its gains to those of Nvidia's ( NVDA ) , Saylor said both stocks have performed similarly over the past five years, remarking that volatility comes with the territory.

Bitcoin (BTC-USD) was down 3.5% to $95,065 in Friday's trading session.

Commenting on current price levels, Saylor said he is "fairly comfortable," as the company has a strong base of support from which to rally.

"We now own nearly 3.1% of the network, bought at a blended average of about $74,000 a coin," Saylor told CNBC.

Shares of Strategy were down nearly 4% in recent Friday trade.
