Warren Buffet’s Berkshire Hathaway Nears $1 Trillion Valuation

Berkshire Hathaway, under Warren Buffett's leadership, is on the verge of reaching a $1 trillion market valuation.

As of Tuesday, the company’s market cap stood just shy of $1 trillion at $993 billion.

If successful, Berkshire would join an elite group that includes companies like Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Meta, Alphabet, Tesla, and Saudi Aramco. Notably, Tesla, currently valued at $668 billion, is the only major player yet to hit the $1 trillion mark.

Since early 2024, Berkshire’s market cap has surged by $218 billion, a gain larger than the total market value of well-known firms such as McDonald’s and Cisco. Berkshire’s Class A shares have risen by 27.4% this year, while Class B shares have increased by 29.2%.
