Berkshire Hathaway stock price

Berkshire Hathaway believes in reinvesting all profits from the companies and stocks it owns into more asset purchases. Over the years, Berkshire Hathaway has produced extraordinary capital growth for investors (over 2.7 million % between 1965 and 2019) due to this compounding effect. 

Berkshire Hathaway Shares - Class A stock or 'BRK.A' - are now worth over $250,000 ($286,140 at the time of writing) each. For most investors, that's just not affordable.

That is why in 1996 Buffet created a new class of share called Berkshire Hathaway Class B Stock (BRK.B) at a more affordable price.  

What the bears are saying

What the bulls are saying

• There’s no stopping Berkshire Hathaway: Berkshire Hathaway has been one of the most successful and profitable companies in the world for years. There’s no sign of it slowing down. 
• Diversity gives safety AND growth: Berkshire Hathaway is remarkably diversified and well-placed to absorb economic shocks.
