Has Berkshire Hathaway Lost The Buffett Premium?
BRK-A, BRK-B
Published: July 09, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Berkshire Hathaway Inc. has sold off since CEO Warren Buffett announced his retirement, but the fundamentals remain strong. The recent 10% BRK.A stock decline is an overreaction to Buffett's retirement; he remains involved, and the company's fundamentals are intact. Core businesses like insurance and energy are well-positioned to benefit from long-term secular tailwinds, especially with higher interest rates and increased energy demand. Technical analysis shows Berkshire is oversold near the 200-day EMA, presenting a compelling buy-the-dip opportunity for long-term investors.

Buy Berkshire Hathaway Before The Market Realizes Its Value
BRK-A, BRK-B
Published: July 07, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

Berkshire Hathaway is undervalued, trading at historic lows on P/E and P/B, despite robust operating profits and a fortress balance sheet. DCF and SOTP analyses indicate intrinsic value per share of $500–$535, supporting an 11–25% upside from current levels. Key risks include leadership transition, Apple concentration, regulatory shifts, and macro headwinds, but diversified cash flows provide resilience.

Constellation Brands: I'm Not Sure Berkshire's Bet Will Be A Toast (Earnings Preview)
BRK-A, BRK-B, STZ
Published: June 26, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Constellation Brands faces growth stagnation, tariff headwinds, and M&A missteps, making its future outlook weak despite its strong beer portfolio. Financials show high margins and shareholder returns, but flat revenue and moderate dividend growth don't justify holding for income or growth. Valuation appears stretched, with intrinsic value below current price and negative momentum increasing downside risk, especially before earnings.

Berkshire's Apple investment became legendary, while the Precision Castparts acquisition was written down as a mistake after pandemic-driven setbacks. PCC's business has rebounded to pre-acquisition levels, and current peer valuations suggest Buffett may have simply bought too early, not overpaid. Accounting rules forced a permanent write-down, but the economic reality is that PCC's fundamentals and cash generation have recovered strongly.
