Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway
reached a $1 trillion market capitalization on Wednesday, the first non-technology company in the U.S. to score the coveted milestone.

Shares of the Omaha-based conglomerate have rallied more than 28% in 2024, far above the S&P 500′s 18% gain. The $1 trillion threshold was crossed just two days before the ‘Oracle of Omaha’ turns 94 years old.

The shares were up 1.2% to hit a high of $699,440.93 on Wednesday, allowing it to top the $1 trillion mark, per FactSet.

For posterity...

I can imagine (and hope) Mr Buffett is allowing himself a small wry grin.
I don't imagine it's any more important than any other 1% rise in the grand scheme of things, so he won't be tap dancing, but we know he does like a round number sometimes!

Good on ya, boss.

Fresh all time highs in pre-market at $467.80 per B, I guess the rally isn't over yet...

Quite the little birthday blowoff.

$1.026 trillion by my count, a few seconds before market close.
Other than about 18 days in 2018, 1.705 is the highest price-to-peak-known-book ratio since the credit crunch 15.9 years ago.

Other than about 18 days in 2018

Do you happen to have those dates?
