Insurance gains drive profit as cash reserves reach record highs

Berkshire Hathaway reported better-than-expected third quarter results, driven by strong performance from its insurance operations. The company has maintained its position as a net seller of equities, with $143 billion sold in 2024 and over $24 billion sold in the first nine months of 2025, resulting in a cash balance exceeding $354 billion. Market attention has increased around potential changes to capital allocation, including possible dividends or share buybacks, as well as Greg Abel's influence on company strategy.

Mixed momentum and resistance at Kijun highlight intraday uncertainty

The nearest dynamic resistance sits at the Ichimoku Kijun level of $499.26, while the MA-50 serves as additional support. Momentum signals are mixed: MACD on the daily chart signals weakening momentum with a Sell reading, and ADX remains neutral at low levels, indicating a lack of strong directional trend. RSI hovers near neutral with a slight bearish tilt, while the Stochastic RSI flashes a Strong Buy, suggesting potential upward reversal; CCI is neutral. Bull/Bear Power shows overbought conditions, signaling buyers have dominated intraday, but the Awesome Oscillator does not support a clear trend. Divergences among oscillators and momentum—bullish Stochastic RSI versus bearish MACD and neutral CCI—underscore an uncertain intraday tone, as declining prices contrast buyer dominance in short bursts.

Sideways bias likely as volatility bands contain direction

For the next five trading days, a typical volatility band is expected between $494.00 and $503.00, keeping close to current levels. The probability of an upward move is moderate (50%), with downside risk equally likely, based on bullish weekly signals (RSI, MACD, and MA-50 bullish; ADX neutral). The baseline scenario projects sideways movement between $494.00 and $503.00. A break above resistance at $499.26 could prompt attempts toward $503.00, while a clear breakdown below $497.00 may trigger a move toward $494.00.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees Berkshire Hathaway trading in a tight range with mixed technical signals and muted momentum. He notes the company’s strong fundamentals and large cash reserves but highlights that buyer dominance has not translated into a clear uptrend. Kharitonov remains cautious, emphasizing the uncertainty created by divergent indicators and the lack of a strong directional move. "Base case remains sideways between $494.00 and $503.00 — without a break above resistance, I see no reason to add risk here."

Previously it was reported that Berkshire Hathaway is trading below its major moving averages, facing persistent downward pressure with momentum indicators confirming weak tone and oversold conditions. The price is expected to consolidate sideways within a defined range, with limited upside probability and greater risk of further declines if support breaks.
