BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY SPECIALTY INSURANCE APPOINTS CHRIS POLECHRONIS HEAD OF FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS, U.S.

Google parent Alphabet continues to enjoy a massive AI tailwind. Apple's iPhone sales are at all-time highs with a promising new product likely on the way.

Berkshire Hathaway: I'm More Bullish Than Ever

Greg Abel's new role as Berkshire Hathaway CEO comes with about $378 billion in cash and Treasury bills. Apple's fiscal first-quarter results were driven by a 23% year-over-year jump in iPhone revenue.

Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.B) might not be the same without the Oracle of Omaha in the corner office.

On its way to a 5.5 million percent return, Berkshire had its biggest annual gains early on. There are two reasons for this; one is intuitive, the other is regulatory.

Quarterly-filed Form 13Fs provide a concise snapshot of the stocks Wall Street's savviest money managers have purchased and sold. In the quarters leading up to Warren Buffett's retirement, he meaningfully pared down Berkshire's stake in Bank of America -- and profit-taking may tell only part of the story.

Berkshire Hathaway is underperforming amid Buffett's departure, but I view this as a temporary, sentiment-driven dislocation. BRK's $380B cash war chest depresses returns in bull markets but provides significant downside protection and optionality for future market pullbacks. Valuation has dropped below 1.5x price-to-book, historically a buyback trigger, making BRK increasingly attractive versus elevated market multiples.

Warren Buffett is widely considered one of, if not the, greatest investors of all time. During Buffett's final few years, Berkshire Hathaway was very conservative.

Visa runs a payment network, but it doesn't issue credit cards. Visa continues to be one of the biggest beneficiaries of growing digital payments globally.

Michael Burry is betting big that GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen can become a Warren Buffett-type figure. Cohen has so far not made any investments comparable to Buffett's purchases of American Express or Coca-Cola.

Berkshire Hathaway has a not-so-secret weapon. New CEO Greg Abel is prepared to use this weapon to benefit shareholders.

A combination of big Apple stock sales and steady gains for the share price of American Express has put the credit card company within a few billion dollars of becoming the most valuable holding in Berkshire Hathaway's equity portfolio.

Since Warren Buffett announced his departure from Berkshire Hathaway last May, its shares have underperformed markets dramatically. Investors worry that the company has suffered an irreplaceable loss.

The now-retired Warren Buffett oversaw a nearly 6,100,000% cumulative gain in Berkshire Hathaway's Class A shares (BRK.A) under his leadership. Buffett's unwritten investing rules were the catalyst that fueled Berkshire Hathaway's ascendance to a trillion-dollar market cap.

Analysts have mixed feelings on Berkshire Hathaway stock as Warren Buffett steps aside and Greg Abel takes over. Berkshire Hathaway's stock price has sunk about 4% so far this year.

Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK)(NYSE: BRK) disclosed a new stake in UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH) in August, but after an initial rally, the stock has since fallen, putting the position underwater.
