Berkshire Hathaway shares hit eight-month high
The conglomerate that Warren Buffett built rallied to an eight-month high this week. There could be more gains ahead if they play catch up with the S&P 500.
Berkshire Hathaway shares reached an eight-month high this week, potentially signaling further gains if the trend continues. As of Tuesday, B shares closed at $512.37, the highest since November 28, 2025. The all-time high for B shares was $539.80 on May 2, 2025. Class A shares hit $768,010 on Tuesday, their highest since November 28.
The stock remains well behind the S&P 500, which is currently 7.6 percentage points ahead. However, Berkshire has closed more than half of its 17.5 percentage point deficit in just two months. Key holdings contributing to the rally include Apple, up 13.6% this year, Coca-Cola, up 25%, and Bank of America, up 12.6%. Analyst Brian Meredith raised his price target for B shares to $585 and A shares to $877,848. Berkshire repurchased $234 million of its shares in Q1 2026.
