Warren Buffett is now retired, but the new boss of Berkshire Hathaway, Greg Abel, just got a bullish technical endorsement from Wall Street in the form of a “golden cross” chart pattern.
Shares of the conglomerate BRK.B, which has gotten a large chunk of its earnings the last few years from investment gains, have not yet recovered everything they’ve lost since the shock announcement in May that Buffett, 95, was stepping down, but they are getting close. And while the stock’s path over the past several months has been bumpy, it has generally been upward, to provide an optimistic setup for 2026.
