Limoneira And Other Big Stocks Moving Lower In Tuesday's Pre-Market Session

WIIM

Avita Medical shares are trading higher after D. Boral Capital initiated coverage on the stock with a Buy rating and announced a $25 price target.

The chief business officer and the chief insurance officer of the insurance technology company Lemonade Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMND#NYSE">LMND</a>) sold their shares in the company on Dec. 3, as per the SEC filings. The company&#8217;s technical analysis shows that the stock is under short-term pressure.
What Happened: John Sheldon Peters sold 1,790 shares of the company worth $81,445, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>. After the transaction, the chief insurance officer was left with 88,493 shares of the company. He diluted 1.98% of his ownership after the trade.
On the other hand, the chief business officer Maya Prosor sold 304 shares, worth a total of $13,832, as per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga </a>Pro. After the trade, he directly owns 8,684 company shares and 29,286 shares indirectly via Cohen Holdings, LLC. Prosor&#8217;s sale was conducted to cover tax withholding obligations and it wasn&#8217;t a discretionary decision.

Why It Matters: From a technical perspective, the analysis of daily moving averages indicates that the stock may be under pressure in the short term.
The stock ended at $39.90 apiece on Monday. This was below its eight and 20-day simple moving averages, of $40.95 and $44.42, respectively. As per Benzinga Pro data, its current stock price was higher than the 50-day moving average of $33.92 and its 200-day moving average of $21.50.
This implies that it could still be in a long-term uptrend while it is testing fresh support levels near the average value.
On the other hand, the relative strength index of 49.22 suggests the stock is in a neutral zone and is neither overbought nor oversold.

Price Action: Shares of Lemonade are up 134.15% on a year-to-date basis, outperforming the NYSE Composite, which was up 14.05% in the same period. However, Lemonade has fallen by 21.80% over the last month.
About 12 analysts tracked by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LMND/analyst-ratings">Benzinga </a>have a consensus &#8216;sell&#8217; rating on the stock with a price target of $29.18 per share. The highest price target was $60 issued by JPMorgan on Nov. 22 and the low is $12 issued by BofA Securities on May 4, 2023.
The three most recent analyst ratings have seen a target upgrade by JMP Securities, BMO Capital, and Piper Sandler, however, it still implies a 0.58% downside for LMND.

The Pudgy Penguins (CRYPTO: PENGU) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42562051/pudgy-penguins-pengu-token-extends-rally-outperforms-dogecoin-shiba-inu-on-wednesday">meme coin is seeing a surge in interest</a>, fueled by new exchange listings, bullish sentiment and whale accumulation. 
What Happened: Onchain Lens <a href="https://x.com/OnchainLens/status/1871397092125769748">data</a> shows that a newly created wallet acquired 519.99 million PENGU tokens, valued at $14.72 million, via Binance.  
In Mario Nawfal's latest Crypto Daily episode posted on <a href="https://x.com/MarioNawfal/status/1871182703816839401">X</a> on Dec 23, Luca Netz, the creator of Pudgy Penguins, shared insights into the project's vision. 
He dismissed the idea that Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) will maintain dominance forever, labeling it as a "bad assumption." 
Netz emphasized that memetic characters like Pudgy Penguins remain underdeveloped and have untapped cultural potential.
He added that in terms of social viewership and other factors Dogecoin and Pepe (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">PEPE</a>) are the only two closest competitors.
Netz short term goal for Pudgy Penguins is to make it a cultural phenomenon which has happened only twice earlier in the crypto space – DOGE and Bored Apes and Ape. 
The next big step for Pudgy he believes is a movie TV show and a blockbuster game.

Golar LNG Limited (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLNG#NASDAQ">GLNG</a>) shares traded lower in the premarket session on Tuesday but recovered from the loss. The company has acquired Seatrium&#8217;s and Black &amp; Veatch&#8217;s minority stakes in the FLNG Hilli, including 5.45% common units, 10.9% <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42666947/golar-acquires-all-outstanding-minority-interests-in-the-flng-hilli" rel="noreferrer noopener">Series A shares, and 10.9% Series B shares</a>.
The total transaction value is $90.2 million, comprising $59.9 million in equity and $30.3 million as a pro-rata share of the existing FLNG Hilli debt facility.
This acquisition represents approximately 8% of the full FLNG capacity.
Golar&#8217;s increased ownership will take full economic effect starting January 1, 2025.
The FLNG Hilli is contracted to Perenco in Cameroon until July 2026, after which it is planned to relocate to Argentina under a 20-year agreement with Southern Energy, a consortium of leading Argentine natural gas producers.
The Southern Energy contract is contingent on conditions such as obtaining an export license, completing an environmental assessment, and a Final Investment Decision by Southern Energy.
Since commencing operations in 2018, the FLNG Hilli has achieved global-leading uptime, delivering 124 LNG cargoes and offloading over 8.5 million tons of LNG.
Additionally, Golar LNG and Seatrium have resolved outstanding items, including a $7 million payment by Golar to Seatrium for a Hilli Train 3 utilization bonus and historical work on the former Golar Gandria LNGC.
Following these settlements, no further contractual obligations regarding existing assets remain between Golar and Seatrium.
Golar CEO Karl-Fredrik Staubo said, &#8220;Golar is pleased to take full ownership of FLNG&nbsp;Hilli. The increased ownership will give immediate cash flow accretion and is expected to add approximately $0.5bn of Adjusted EBITDA backlog.&#8221;
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Exchange Traded Concepts Trust Range Global LNG Ecosystem Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LNGZ#NYSE">LNGZ</a>) and Invesco Oil &amp; Gas Services ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PXJ#NYSE">PXJ</a>).
Price Action: GLNG shares are up 0.62% at $42.10 premarket at the last check on Tuesday.

In the current session, the stock is trading at $195.05, after a 0.22% spike. Over the past month, Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) stock increased by 15.08%, and in the past year, by 38.65%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<h3>Comparing Alphabet P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Alphabet has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 51.68 of the Interactive Media &amp; Services industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735045222_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Meanwhile, Rivian offers the R1S SUV, starting at $75,900 for the base version while Lucid has recently started manufacturing the premium variant of its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42432727/lucids-gravity-gets-official-range-estimate-higher-than-teslas-model-x-but-lower-than-its-own-air-sedan">Gravity SUV starting at $94,900</a>.

All three vehicles can seat up to 7 adults. While from a price perspective, the Rivian R1S might seem like a great buy, the base variant of the vehicle only offers a range of 270 miles. 
Model Variants: 
Tesla&#8217;s Model X comes in two variants namely the all-wheel drive and plaid.

Range Comparison:
For drivers looking for the most range, the Lucid Gravity offers the most ease of mind among its counterparts with 450 miles of range.
The Model X has an EPA-estimated range of up to 329 miles while R1S has a maximum range of 410 miles. However, 410 miles of range is available only with the R1S Dual variant coupled with a max battery pack with a starting price of $89,900.
Performance: 
The best option for a customer depends on what they expect out of their vehicle. 
For customers looking for fast acceleration,&nbsp;the Model X can go from 0 to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds, and the R1S Tri in 2.9 seconds.
For those looking for the most power, the Model X Plaid would be the best option with 1,020 horsepower. Gravity has up to 828 hp and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40954673/rivian-introduces-100k-tri-max-variant-of-r1s-electric-suv-on-online-shop-which-can-go-from-0-60-mph">the R1S Tri variant has up to 850 hp</a>.
Alternate Cheaper Option: Tesla also offers buyers another three-row SUV option in its cheaper Model Y. While the Model Y comes with a five-seat interior included, buyers of the long-range all-wheel drive variant of the vehicle can pay an extra $1000-$2000 for seven-seat interiors. 
The Long Range All-Wheel Drive variant of the Model Y has a starting price of $47,990, meaning an added $2000 for seven-seat interiors would take the price up to $49,990. 
However, the Model Y is smaller in length and width than the company&#8217;s premium SUV Model X, implying that the third row would be relatively more cramped for buyers looking for third-row comfort.

Tesla Model X, Lucid Gravity Or Rivian R1S: Which Three-Row Electric SUV Is A Better Buy?

What goes up must come down. However, buyers who spent millions of dollars on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/42623572/constellation-group-reaches-new-heights-at-ella-miami-beach-unveiling-new-rooftop-penthouse#google_vignette">luxury Miami condos</a> only a few years ago didn&#8217;t expect them to come down so soon.
According to a new study from the University of Miami, superhigh structures like the celebrated 641-foot-tall <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/42599405/miami-luxury-re-llc-introduces-aston-martin-residences-featuring-ultimate-luxury-and-amenities">Porsche Design Tower</a> lining the barrier islands north of Miami are &#8220;sinking&#8221; at an alarming rate. The study calls into question the stability of the buildings, particularly along Sunny Isles Beach, noting that 35 buildings have sunk three inches in the last seven years, a subsidence rate of just under half an inch per year.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Some Of Miami&#8217;s Most Glamorous Towers Have Been Affected</h2>
MSN.com reports that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/42591369/concierge-auctions-announces-early-2025-sale-calendar-spanning-north-america-and-asia">The Ritz Carlton</a> Residences and both Trump Towers are among the iconic towers that are losing stature, along with the Porsche Design Tower. This study is made all the more alarming in the wake of the tragedy of the nearby 12-story Surfside, Florida, where the Champlain Towers South building collapsed in June 2021, killing 98 people. That collapse, however, is thought to have been caused by bad structural design, deterioration and poor maintenance rather than subsidence.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Satellite Technology And Multiple Studies</h2>
Using complex satellite technology and cross-referencing their studies with those from other universities to legitimize their findings, the University of Miami has discovered the shocking subsidence rate exists along several parts of the Southern Florida coastline.

Although subsidence is common among newly constructed structures, the weight of the high-rises has accelerated the process, which must also call into question the geological surveys conducted before construction. Contributing factors to accelerated subsidence can include the following:
<ul>
<li>Daily tidal movements</li>
<li>Cracking limestone</li>
<li>Soil grains</li>
<li>Groundwater flow from underground construction.</li>
</ul>
&#8220;We found that subsidence in most high-rises slows down over time, but in some cases, it continues at a steady rate. This suggests that subsidence could persist for an extended period,&#8221; senior author Falk Amelung said.&nbsp;
The sinking &#8220;is primarily due to the gradual reconfiguration of the sand grains into a denser packing within sandy layers interbedded in the limestone&#8221; in the area, the study said. Khaled Siobhan, a geotechnical engineering professor at Florida Atlantic University, told<a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/realestate/porsche-design-tower-in-miami-641-foot-skyscraper-showing-signs-of-sinking/ar-AA1w2LZd?ocid=finance-verthp-feeds&amp;cvid=cffdb5a6acd042ca804d88c5f2a5bbfd&amp;ei=24"> </a>Interesting Engineering, as reported by MSN, &#8220;The subsidence is probably a combination of several mechanisms and these findings raise important questions that need further investigation.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Sinking Could Be Widespread Along The High-Priced Celeb-Studded Shoreline</h2>
The Porsche Design Tower has been home to several celebrities, including soccer legend <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39777763/argentina-wins-copa-am-rica-in-dramatic-final-as-messis-era-nears-end">Lionel Messi</a>, Carlos &#8220;CarGo&#8221; González, the star player of the Colorado Rockies, Mexican billionaire Carlos Peralta Quintero and rapper Birdman, who rented in the tower, the building's website reported. One of the tower&#8217;s main attractions is the internal garage lift system, which allows ultimate privacy by enabling cars to be parked outside the owner&#8217;s apartments – which, in the wake of the subsidence fears, adds considerable weight to the building. However, no determination has been made at this point concerning the sinking rate of individual buildings according to their height and weight. According to NPR.org, scientists said preliminary data also suggests sinking or settling further north along the beaches of Broward and Palm Beach counties.
Should the subsidence continue and different sections of affected buildings subside at different rates, scientists fear foundation cracks, utility breaks and long-term damage could occur.&nbsp;

FAA Said Nationwide Groundstop For AAL Main And Subs Canceled

The biggest banks are planning to sue the Federal Reserve over the annual bank stress tests, according to a person familiar with the matter. A lawsuit is expected this week and could come as soon as Tuesday morning, the person said.
The Fed's stress test is an <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/26/fed-banks-stress-test-2024.html">annual ritual</a> that forces banks to maintain adequate cushions for bad loans and dictates the size of share repurchases and dividends.
After the market close on Monday, the Federal Reserve announced in a statement that it is <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/bcreg20241223a.htm">looking to make changes</a> to the bank stress tests and will be seeking public comment on what it calls "significant changes to improve the transparency of its bank stress tests and to reduce the volatility of resulting capital buffer requirements."
The Fed said it made the determination to change the tests because of "the evolving legal landscape," pointing to changes in administrative laws in recent years. It didn't outline any specific changes to the framework of the annual stress tests.

'Biggest banks planning to sue the Federal Reserve over annual stress tests' - CNBC

We all know the drill on Christmas. Hop on Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) or Walmart (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>), or Target (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>), hunting for the perfect gift—maybe even snagging a great deal.
But let's be honest: those gifts often end up forgotten or out of use, no matter how thoughtful.
Ever considered gifting Christmas stocks? Your family and friends may come to appreciate such a gift in time. Here's Why.
Why Gift Stocks
Stocks are an opportunity because they offer financial growth. They can offer financial growth, spark interest in investing, and teach valuable lessons about the stock market. Giving shares in retail giants like Walmart, Amazon, or Target doesn't just say, "I care about you today." It says, "I care about your future."
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42655649/your-christmas-roadmap-to-the-markets-most-hidden-profits">Your Christmas Roadmap to the Market&#8217;s Most Hidden Profits</a>
Why Walmart, Amazon, And Target
Amazon: The company offers exposure to e-commerce, cloud computing, and even AI advancements. It currently has a market capitalization of $2.366 trillion, making it the fifth most valuable company in the world. Year-to-date Amazon shares have grown by 50.11%, significantly outperforming NASDAQ-100 which is at 29.98% during the same period, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Walmart: A leader in physical retail and rapidly expanding in e-commerce, Walmart remains a robust choice for long-term investors. The company currently stands at number 12 on the list of the world's most valuable companies with a market cap of $725.81 billion. Walmart shares have climbed 70.15% so far this year.
Target: Known for its loyal customer base and successful private-label brands, Target is a solid bet in the retail space. Target currently holds a market value of $60.44 billion, ranking as the 324th most valuable company globally by market cap. While its shares are down 7.81% year-to-date, they have increased by 2.1% over the past five years.
Things To Keep In Mind While Gifting Stocks
Understand The Tax Implications: Gifting stocks comes with tax rules that are important to understand. The IRS allows tax-free gifts of up to $15,000 annually for each recipient ($30,000 for married couples), with amounts over this limit potentially subject to taxes.
Gifting Stocks To Minors: For minors, you'll need to set up a custodial account, such as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/utma-vs-ugma">UTMA or UGMA account</a>. Once the account is set up, stocks can be transferred directly. The gift becomes the child's property and cannot be reclaimed.
Virtual Transfers Between Brokerage Accounts: You'll need their account details and personal information to initiate the transfer through your brokerage platform. If they don't have an account, some platforms let you gift stock via digital gift cards they can redeem for shares.
Remember that stock values can fluctuate, and past performance doesn&#8217;t guarantee future returns. However, the financial lessons learned from owning and monitoring these investments can be invaluable, regardless of market performance.

Billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller's family office Duquesne has offloaded two of Wall Street's hottest AI stocks – Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), according to a recent 13F filing.
What Happened: Druckenmiller&#8217;s Duquesne Family Office sold all of its Nvidia shares and significantly reduced its Palantir holdings by 95% during the third quarter.
This comes after Nvidia and Palantir have been on a tear this year. While the Nvidia stock surged nearly 190% in 2024 so far, Palantir shares have gained over 386% to date.
While it's not clear why Duquesne has offloaded these two red-hot AI stocks, profit booking could be one of the motives.
Nvidia and Palantir's relatively rich valuations could also have contributed to Duquesne paring its holdings – while Nvidia's trailing 12 months (TTM) price-to-earnings (PE) ratio stands at 55.21, Palantir's stands at 403.45.
Meanwhile, Druckenmiller is increasing his stake in Teva Pharmaceutical (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEVA#NYSE">TEVA</a>), a company that has seen its shares rise by 112% this year.
Teva&#8217;s strategic shift towards brand-name therapies and its resolution of opioid litigation as key factors contributing to its recent success.
Druckenmiller&#8217;s fund added 1,427,950 shares of Teva during the September-ended quarter, signaling confidence in the pharmaceutical company&#8217;s turnaround and growth potential.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;Druckenmiller, a protégé of&nbsp;George Soros, is renowned for his macroeconomic investment strategy, often making significant bets on industry trends rather than individual companies.
His recent decision to pivot from AI to pharmaceuticals marks a notable shift in his investment focus. Earlier this year, Druckenmiller <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42659876/stanley-druckenmiller-pours-funds-into-1-trillion-company-already-trading-up-100">increased his stake</a> in&nbsp;Broadcom Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), a semiconductor giant, demonstrating his interest in high-growth sectors.
In February, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/02/37175336/billionaire-investor-stanley-druckenmillers-firm-dumps-alphabet-amazon-boosts-investments-in-ai-">Druckenmiller&#8217;s firm divested from</a>&nbsp;Alphabet Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) and&nbsp;Amazon.com Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/02/37175336/billionaire-investor-stanley-druckenmillers-firm-dumps-alphabet-amazon-boosts-investments-in-ai-">bolstering investments in AI leaders</a> like&nbsp;Microsoft Corp.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and&nbsp;Nvidia.
Despite his bullish stance on AI, Druckenmiller&#8217;s recent actions suggest a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/12/42627207/stanley-druckenmillers-top-holding-has-outperformed-its-sector-by-252">strategic realignment towards</a> the healthcare sector, particularly in companies like&nbsp;Natera Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTRA#NASDAQ">NTRA</a>), which has outperformed its sector significantly.

Stanley Druckenmiller Dumps Street's Hottest AI Stocks — Here's What The Billionaire Investor Is Betting On Next

fuboTV Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FUBO#NYSE">FUBO</a>) shares are trading lower premarket on Tuesday.
On Monday, the company expressed disappointment over TelevisaUnivision&#8216;s decision to pull its programming, leaving thousands of Spanish-speaking consumers without access <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42663598/televisaunivision-pulls-spanish-language-programming-from-fubo-impacting-thousands-of-hispanic-con" rel="noreferrer noopener">to vital local news and weather</a>.
According to Fubo, the dispute arises from TelevisaUnivision demanding a 25% price increase and imposing unfair bundling practices that force subscribers to pay for channels they do not watch.
Additionally, Fubo criticized the separate subscription required for Vix+ to access all of TelevisaUnivision&#8217;s sports content.
The company said it remains open to fair negotiations with TelevisaUnivision and highlighted its ongoing dedication to the Hispanic community.
Fubo stated its commitment to offering premium content at competitive rates and emphasized its refusal to accept terms that would burden its subscribers or investors.
Fubo continues to provide a robust selection of Spanish-language programming through its Latino plan, featuring networks such as ESPN Deportes, FOX Deportes, Telemundo Acción, and beIN Sports Español, at what it claims is the lowest price among live TV streaming platforms.
Last week, FuboTV disclosed the launch of Hallmark+, which is available as a standalone premium subscription <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42601547/fubo-launches-hallmark-as-standalone-or-add-on-expanding-current-linear-partnership" rel="noreferrer noopener">or an add-on for Fubo customers</a>.
This launch builds on Fubo&#8217;s existing distribution agreement with Hallmark, which already includes Hallmark&#8217;s linear channels.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via ProShares Metaverse ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VERS#NYSE">VERS</a>).
Price Action: At the last check on Tuesday, FUBO shares were trading lower by 1.46% at $1.35 premarket.

fuboTV Battles TelevisaUnivision for Fair Pricing In Spanish-Language Showdown

Warren Buffett&nbsp;is entering 2025 with the largest cash reserve at&nbsp;Berkshire Hathaway&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) in over three decades. 
What Happened:&nbsp;The conglomerate&#8217;s cash holdings have reached a staggering $325 billion, marking the highest percentage of total assets since 1990, CNBC<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/12/22/buffett-heads-into-2025-with-biggest-cash-position-in-more-than-30-years.html"> reported</a> on Tuesday.
This cash accumulation comes as Buffett, 94, finds few attractive investment opportunities amid a highly valued market. The &#8220;Buffett indicator,&#8221; which compares&nbsp;the total market value of&nbsp;U.S. stocks to GDP, has soared to 209%, a level not seen since the 1929 market peak, according to Oppenheimer data.
Throughout 2024, Buffett sold significant portions of his largest holdings, including&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and&nbsp;Bank of America Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), offloading $133 billion in stocks during the year&#8217;s first three quarters.
