Taylor Morrison Home put out a preliminary proxy on June 12, asking investors to back Berkshire’s planned all-cash buyout. The filing states Taylor Morrison shareholders would get $72.50 per share, about 24% over where the stock closed on May 29. The deal needs a majority of outstanding shares entitled to vote.
Berkshire Hathaway Shares Up After Greg Abel Makes $16.8 Billion Move

Berkshire Hathaway Shares Up After Greg Abel Makes $16.8 Billion Move

Berkshire Hathaway’s Class B stock ended Friday’s NYSE session at $488.13, gaining 1.98% for the day and finishing 2.9% higher than a week ago. The move puts the spotlight on Greg Abel, with investors asking if his early capital moves as CEO are shifting the trade now that Buffett is out front. The move was notable, with the rest of Wall Street sharply lower. The S&P 500 dropped 2.64% and the Nasdaq fell 4.18%. A strong May jobs report, the government’s monthly payroll growth figure, brought back worries that the Federal Reserve could keep policy tighter for longer. “The dam just broke today,” Carson Group chief market strategist Ryan Detrick said.
Broadcom’s $280 Billion AI Rally Hits Key Test

Broadcom’s $280 Billion AI Rally Hits Key Test

Broadcom heads into Wednesday’s earnings after shares ran higher for four days. Traders have piled into custom AI chips and data-center networking plays, boosted this week by Alphabet’s $80 billion stock sale plan and a record move in Marvell Technology. Broadcom is due to post its fiscal Q2 numbers after the close, with a results call set for 5:00 p.m. ET, the company said. Timing is in play. Investors are shifting values for the companies making the hardware behind artificial intelligence: custom processors, optical connections, and switching chips that shuttle data through big server centers. Broadcom is part of that supply chain, tied to Google’s tensor processing units—custom AI chips built by Google together with external chipmakers.
US stocks notch new highs with AI trade still in focus

Wall Street Record Faces Latest Test After Hours: AI Hype, Oil, Rates, Jobs Collide

U.S. stocks finished at new highs Tuesday, but after-hours trading barely moved. Traders didn’t push for gains after hardware names tied to artificial intelligence drove the regular session. The S&P 500 finished up 9.94 points, or 0.13%, at 7,609.90. The Dow climbed 228.91 points, or 0.45%, to 51,307.79. The Nasdaq Composite ended just 7.09 points higher, or 0.03%, at 27,093.90. The Philadelphia SE Semiconductor Index surged 5.9%, but software and services stocks dropped 3.3%. Tech is showing a big gap.
Dow, S&P inch up as AI surge faces $80 billion hurdle

Dow, S&P inch up as AI surge faces $80 billion hurdle

U.S. stocks finished Tuesday little changed. The Dow picked up 149.01 points, or 0.29%, to 51,227.89. The S&P 500 was up 4.85 points, or 0.06%, at 7,604.81. The Nasdaq Composite slipped 13.96 points, or 0.05%, closing at 27,072.85. Buyers stuck with AI names, while companies with high spending needs and Middle East risk got less support. Tim Ghriskey, senior portfolio strategist at Ingalls & Snyder, said it was “a mixed market today.” AI excitement has been the main driver for markets, but attention is turning to who will pay for the data centers, servers and power behind it. Artificial intelligence, or AI, has pushed major indexes to records with its software and chip advances, but funding for the infrastructure is becoming a key question. “AI is in some cases, the only thing that’s working,” wrote John Belton, portfolio manager at Gabelli Funds, who said he wants more portfolio balance.
Dow Jones Moves Up in Late Trading

Dow Jones Moves Up in Late Trading

Dow eked out a small gain Tuesday, finishing higher as U.S. blue chips benefited from ongoing excitement over artificial intelligence spending. That enthusiasm managed to counterbalance concerns about inflation and continued Middle East tensions after the bell. The Dow rose 149.01 points, up 0.29%, closing at 51,227.89. The S&P 500 inched up 4.85 points, or 0.06%, to 7,604.81. The Nasdaq Composite dropped 13.96 points, or 0.05%, to 27,072.85.
Asia Stocks Hold Up as AI Demand Lifts Sentiment, but Korea Signals Caution

Asia Stocks Hold Up as AI Demand Lifts Sentiment, but Korea Signals Caution

Asia markets held firm Tuesday. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng jumped 2.28% and the Shanghai Composite added 0.43%, offsetting a 0.3% dip in Japan’s Nikkei 225. The AI trade continued to draw interest from buyers, even as Brent crude stayed near $94 and Middle East risks remained in play. Asia-Pacific markets are once again caught between rising AI spending and higher oil prices. Tech and chip shares have seen gains from AI, while inflation tied to oil has put pressure on airlines, consumers, and central banks. MSCI’s Asia-Pacific index outside Japan was up 0.4% after moving in both directions earlier. “This isn’t a re-rating of the AI trade; it’s profit-taking after a blistering run,” said Fabien Yip, market analyst at IG in Sydney.

Monday Test Ahead for Berkshire After Abel’s $24 Billion Portfolio Move

Berkshire Hathaway stock faces a key test for Greg Abel on Monday as he deals with his first major portfolio shakeup. Investors will decide whether to back the move or keep lowering the post-Warren Buffett premium. Berkshire filed after the close on Friday, so the regular market didn’t get to react. Class B shares finished at $482.70, off 0.28% for the session but above $475.94 from the prior week. The S&P 500 was little changed over the week, adding 0.1% despite a Friday slide on oil and higher Treasury yields.

The stock finished normal trading at $18.41, up 0.55%. The New York Stock Exchange closed for the weekend. That’s important with the regular-session tape still looking soft.

Delta Stock Moves After Berkshire’s $2.65 Billion Stake

Delta Stock Moves After Berkshire’s $2.65 Billion Stake

Delta Air Lines heads into Monday trading after Berkshire Hathaway revealed a quarter-end stake worth about $2.65 billion, setting off new chatter on Wall Street over airline stocks as fuel prices weigh on the sector. Delta dropped during Friday’s regular session but moved higher in after-hours trading, where thin liquidity often leads to sharper swings. This is key now with cash equity trading closed until Monday, leaving investors without a full session to react to the filing. Stocks fell on Friday. The S&P 500 was down 1.2%, the Dow slid 1.1% and the Nasdaq lost 1.5% after oil prices climbed and weighed on sentiment.
Berkshire Puts $2.65 Billion Into Delta Air Lines Shares

Berkshire Puts $2.65 Billion Into Delta Air Lines Shares

Berkshire Hathaway has taken a $2.65 billion stake in Delta Air Lines, according to Friday’s disclosure. The move puts the Atlanta-based airline back into Berkshire’s portfolio after the company unloaded airline stocks in the early days of the pandemic. The firm held 39.8 million Delta shares at the end of March, according to a U.S. regulatory filing. Large asset managers file a 13F every quarter to report their U.S.-traded stock holdings. The filing doesn’t include any trades after March 31.
Berkshire Hathaway Stock Rises Today as Inflation Makes Its Cash Hoard Matter Again

Berkshire Hathaway Stock Rises Today as Inflation Makes Its Cash Hoard Matter Again

Berkshire Hathaway shares climbed Tuesday, as investors shifted their focus to cash—no longer a drag, but a source of income. In an inflationary environment that drove money out of pricey growth names and toward more durable balance sheets, cash suddenly looked like an asset worth holding. Traders pointed to the CPI release as the catalyst for the chart move. Headline prices climbed 3.8% year-on-year, while energy leapt 17.9% and gasoline jumped 28.4%. For Berkshire, this isn’t just noise—the conglomerate holds one of corporate America’s biggest stacks of short-term Treasurys. These Treasury bills, a form of short-term U.S. government debt, reset their yields in step with market rates.
US Stock Market Today: Dow Futures Fall as Oil Shock Tests Wall Street’s Record Run

US Stock Market Today: Dow Futures Fall as Oil Shock Tests Wall Street’s Record Run

U.S. stock futures slipped early Monday, with a new burst of tension in the Middle East sending oil prices up and putting Wall Street’s record streak at risk. Dow futures dropped 181 points, or 0.36%, S&P 500 futures edged down 0.08%, and Nasdaq 100 futures hovered near flat at about 6:50 a.m. ET, according to market data. This jump is front and center as investors weigh robust earnings against the sudden flare-up in oil prices. Brent and U.S. West Texas Intermediate each surged roughly 5% after Iran’s Fars news agency claimed two missiles struck a U.S. warship near Jask, along the Strait of Hormuz — a critical chokepoint for oil. Reuters couldn’t verify the report, and Axios pointed to a senior U.S. official who denied any U.S. ship had been hit.
Kraft Heinz Stock Faces New Berkshire Overhang Days Before Q1 Earnings

Kraft Heinz Stock Faces New Berkshire Overhang Days Before Q1 Earnings

Kraft Heinz is once again under pressure from its top shareholder. Berkshire Hathaway noted that its Kraft Heinz holdings, as valued by the market, still lag well behind what’s recorded on Berkshire’s own books—this comes just four days ahead of the packaged-food company’s latest quarterly report. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing shows its Kraft Heinz common stock carried a value $1.4 billion, or 15.7%, higher than fair value as of March 31. An impairment—a non-cash accounting write-down—can reduce earnings. Berkshire noted no charge was needed at quarter-end, but left the door open for that to shift.

Timing is key here. Warren Buffett stepped back from the top job after about sixty years at Berkshire, but the company says he still comes in every weekday as chairman. In his debut annual letter, Abel confirmed the board named him CEO. Now, shareholders are looking for more than just a passing of the baton.

These initial steps give investors the most concrete sense yet of how Warren Buffett’s heir apparent intends to manage Berkshire’s capital.

  • S&P 500 futures advance as rate hike risks and trade deficit weigh
    June 30, 2026, 5:06 AM EDT. U.S. stock futures were higher Tuesday, with E-mini S&P 500 up 0.7% and Nasdaq 100 futures advancing more than 1%, trading as 10-year Treasury yields held near 4.38%. High yields kept pressure on borrowing with the Fed still seen as hawkish and rate hike bets intact. The U.S. goods trade deficit widened to $105.8 billion, pointing to more imports over exports, with some pressure on manufacturing and exporters. Traders looked for defensive names as sector risks lingered. AST SpaceMobile jumped 21.44% after satellite news, Cerebras Systems was up 19.04% following positive analyst calls, and Astera Labs gained 16.39% after UBS lifted its price target. On the downside, Honeywell fell more than 50% after a reverse stock split. NIKE and Constellation Brands' earnings are also on the agenda as investors watch for signs on consumer demand and costs.
