Not a good buy right now for an impatient trader: trend is decisively bearish (bearish MA stack + worsening MACD), and price is breaking below nearby support.
Oversold RSI can spark bounces, but without a proprietary buy signal or a news catalyst, odds favor continued chop/down rather than a clean reversal.
Options positioning is aggressively call-skewed (bullish speculation), but it’s occurring alongside extremely high volatility and a weak chart—more consistent with lottery-style flows than a high-confidence bottom.
Volatility is very high: IV30 ~128.87 vs historical vol 123.47; option pricing implies large moves.
Activity: total volume 121,565 with calls 101,494 vs puts 20,071 → risk-on flow, but not necessarily “smart money” confirmation.
IV Rank 9.6 / IV Percentile 32.37 suggests IV isn’t at peak extremes relative to its own history, despite being high in absolute terms.

Financial Performance
Latest quarter provided: 2025/Q3
Revenue: $1.543M, +660.39% YoY (strong growth off a small base).
Net income: - $206.653M (still a very large loss); the YoY comparison is distorted but does not change that profitability is deeply negative.
EPS: -0.24, down -41.46% YoY (worsening per-share performance).
Gross margin: 100 (as given), but overall results are dominated by heavy losses—growth is not translating into earnings power.

Analyst Ratings and Price Target Trends
2025-12-10: Maxim initiated coverage with Buy and $1.50 price target.
Trend: Only a single (positive) initiation is provided—no recent upgrades/downgrades or target revisions shown.
Wall Street pro view (pros): Sees differentiation in digital-asset treasury strategy, financing approach (common + perpetual preferred), and potential to scale BTC assets.
Wall Street pro view (cons): Current trading/financial reality (deep losses, penny-stock pricing, and bearish trend) does not yet validate the bull thesis in the tape.
Wall Street analysts forecast ASST stock price to fall over the next 12 months. According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for ASST is 1.5 USD with a low forecast of 1.5 USD and a high forecast of 1.5 USD. However, analyst price targets are subjective and often lag stock prices, so investors should focus on the objective reasons behind analyst rating changes, which better reflect the company's fundamentals.

Reason
Benchmark lowered the firm's price target on Semler Scientific (SMLR) to $86 from $101 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares after Semler agreed to be acquired by Strive (ASST) in an all-stock deal. While the market is sorting out the longer-term implications of the transaction, it appears to the firm that Semler shares \"represent an opportunity right now\" and that this deal seems to have \"rung the opening bell for consolidation in the corporate bitcoin treasury space,\" the analyst tells investors.
