What the Market Is Telling Us About Berkshire Hathaway Stock
For Berkshire Hathaway stock, this deal is a sign of how the company may deploy its cash. Analysts at Mizuho called the add-on a vote of confidence in the Bending Spoons model.
At Berkshire’s May 2025 annual meeting, Warren Buffett said Greg Abel should take over as CEO at year-end.
He also said Berkshire holds a very large cash pile and would rather wait for the right deal than rush. Abel said he plans to keep the same approach to capital, and the deal shows that approach in action.
Bending Spoons’ numbers are strong so far.
Revenue more than doubled to over $700 million last quarter, while net income rose 171% to $177 million.
But growth came almost entirely from acquisitions.
Customers may not accept price hikes forever, as AI is also squeezing margins across software. The model is still unproven.
So Berkshire Hathaway stock now has a new tech bet in the portfolio. It is small next to Berkshire’s overall size. It is a clear change from its usual targets.
