Berkshire Hathaway: Buffett Drops The Mic

BRK-A, BRK-B
Published: July 24, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

For Berkshire Hathaway to achieve outsized gains, Greg Abel must find an 'elephant' acquisition; both investment and non-insurance earnings growth have slowed considerably since 2007. Insurance operations have been a bright spot in recent years with consistently negative cost of float and strong underwriting profits; however, the market is turning soft, leading to declining profits. The over 60 non-insurance businesses haven't shown encouraging growth since 2021; if Berkshire aims to grow its operating earnings, it must accelerate the growth rates of these businesses.

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.
