Last week was a good reminder that markets don’t just move on fundamentals, they move on expectations. Broadcom reported strong results, but not strong enough to lift already high expectations around AI growth. That triggered a pullback across AI and semiconductor stocks—even as economic data surprised to the upside. The bigger picture hasn’t changed, but the market is starting to demand more proof after a very strong run. If you’re interested, I break it down in more detail in my latest article below. forbes.com/sites/bill_stone/…

Alphabet raising $80B to fund AI, and Berkshire Hathaway adding another $10B. Thanks to @Reuters for including my thoughts in the story. Not just a capital raise. A signal: AI is now an infrastructure arms race. Also notable timing—this follows Berkshire’s homebuilder acquisition. Greg Abel has been busy deploying capital across very different, long-duration opportunities. Big question: will returns match the scale of investment? reuters.com/legal/transactio… #AI #Investing

Oil is back above $100, and inflation risks are rising with it. That’s showing up in: • Higher gas prices • Rising yields • Re-accelerating CPI Inflation isn’t gone; it’s just in remission. Why that brings TIPS back into focus for investors: forbes.com/sites/bill_stone/… #Inflation #Oil #Rates #FixedIncome

Joined @YahooFinance to break down Berkshire Hathaway’s latest moves under Greg Abel: new bet on Delta, bigger conviction in Alphabet. A more concentrated playbook, same disciplined framework. Thanks @joshuahlipton and Cheyenne Reid for having me. $DAL $GOOGL

Berkshire just got more focused: • 29 stocks • 91% in top 10 • 16 positions eliminated Same discipline. New fingerprints. Greg Abel is reshaping the portfolio, quietly but clearly. My latest ↓ forbes.com/sites/bill_stone/…

Berkshire’s first quarter under Greg Abel is starting to take shape: - New stakes in Delta and Macy’s. - Exits from Amazon, Visa, Mastercard, and others. - A major add to Alphabet Not a wholesale shift, but clearly a more concentrated capital allocation approach. Appreciate @kryshur for the thoughtful conversation and for including my perspective in her @WSJ piece. wsj.com/finance/investing/be…

The Pittsburgh Zoo is clearly in win-now mode.
Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium is set to trade gorillas with Boston’s Franklin Park Zoo. Frankie, Pittsburgh’s 7-year-old male western lowland gorilla, will head to Boston, and in exchange, Boston will send 33-year-old Little Joe the silverback @TribLIVE 🦍 triblive.com/local/regional/…

Berkshire Hathaway Q1 2026: new era, familiar discipline. With Greg Abel taking the wheel, results point to continuity: steady operations, patient capital allocation, and the same long-term playbook. My latest: forbes.com/sites/bill_stone/…

Joined @CNBCTheExchange to talk Berkshire Hathaway. Surprised buybacks didn’t get more airtime after the meeting, but Kelly was on it. Big opportunity ahead for Greg Abel to add value through good old‑fashioned operational excellence. Thanks to @KellyCNBC for the great convo and Chelsea Lombardo for making it all happen. 👇 cnbc.com/video/2026/05/04/su…

A new era in Omaha. Greg Abel led the 2026 Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting as CEO, with Warren Buffett on as Chairman. More focus on operations, record cash of nearly $400B, disciplined capital allocation, and the same margin‑of‑safety mindset. My takeaways 👇 forbes.com/sites/bill_stone/… #BRK #Investing #ValueInvesting

Big Tech earnings week is here: 180 S&P 500 companies report, incl. 5 of the “Magnificent 7” (GOOGL, META, AMZN, MSFT, AAPL). Key watch: AI monetization capex forward guidance. And this weekend: Berkshire Hathaway’s annual meeting in Omaha. Big moment in the Abel era. forbes.com/sites/bill_stone/…

Earnings season hits a peak week: 94 S&P 500 companies report, including Tesla on Wednesday. Early results show ~13% earnings growth and strong beats so far. This week’s guidance will help determine if fundamentals keep pace with new index highs. forbes.com/sites/bill_stone/…
