Conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway Inc (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>) became the 10th public company to surpass the $1 trillion market capitalization milestone on Wednesday, further reshaping the dynamic leaderboard of the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39386946/microsoft-apple-step-aside-nvidia-is-now-the-most-valuable-public-company-in-the-world"> most valuable company in the world.</a>
What Happened: Under the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/movers-shakers/21/08/17298128/warren-buffett-turns-91-a-highlight-for-each-decade-of-his-life-1">long-time leadership</a> of Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway has reached the $1 trillion mark, with shares up 28% year-to-date in 2024.
The stock is one of eight companies to currently be valued at $1 trillion or more. Berkshire Hathaway is also the first U.S. based non-technology company to pass the milestone.
The current list of $1 trillion valued public companies is:
<ul>
<li>Apple: $3.47 trillion</li>
<li>Nvidia: $3.12 trillion</li>
<li>Microsoft: $3.06 trillion</li>
<li>Alphabet: $2.02 trillion</li>
<li>Amazon.com: $1.80 trillion</li>
<li>Saudi Aramco: $1.79 trillion</li>
<li>Meta Platforms: $1.30 trillion</li>
<li>Berkshire Hathaway: $1.03 trillion</li>
</ul>
Previous members of the club include Petro China and Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
"As Berkshire Hathaway approaches a $1 trillion market cap, which company will be the next to reach this milestone?" Benzinga asked earlier this week.
Here are the results and the market capitalizations at the time of the poll:
<ul>
<li>Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>): 43%</li>
<li>Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>): 25%</li>
<li>Tesla: 19%</li>
<li>Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>): 11%</li>
<li>Walmart Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>): 3%</li>
</ul>
At the time of writing, Taiwan Semiconductor and Eli Lilly are closest to hitting the milestone, with both companies worth over $800 billion. Eli Lilly won the poll with a near majority of the five selections. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing ranked second with a quarter of the vote.
Broadcom, which has the next highest market capitalization at $743 billion, ranked fourth. Tesla ranked third, despite having a lower market capitalization of $665 billion. Walmart, which has a market capitalization of $610 billion, finished fifth in the poll.

</ul>
Why It's Important: While it seems like Nvidia has been one of the most valuable companies in the world for some time, the company passed the $1 trillion market cap milestone just 15 months ago,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/05/32630114/nvidia-becomes-ninth-company-to-hit-1-trillion-market-cap-who-could-be-next-to-join-elusive-club"> back in May 2023,</a> and briefly became the most valuable company in the world<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39386946/microsoft-apple-step-aside-nvidia-is-now-the-most-valuable-public-company-in-the-world"> earlier this year.</a>
Meta Platforms, which was a past member of the $1 trillion market capitalization before falling out, re-joined the club earlier this year.
Last May, when Nvidia joined the club, Benzinga asked its social media followers which stock would be next to join or re-join the $1 trillion market capitalization club.
Tesla was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/06/32698111/nvidia-recently-hit-a-1-trillion-market-cap-which-stock-is-next-to-join-club-heres-what-benzinga-use">the overwhelming favorite </a>on X at 53.8% of the vote. Ranking second was Taiwan Semiconductor. While neither of those companies has hit the $1 trillion market cap level since then, the third and fourth place finishers in Meta at 15% and Berkshire at 12.9% are now both members.
This just goes to show that the market can be unpredictable.
Berkshire Hathaway has posted impressive gains over the years under Buffett's leadership, and the company&#8217;s ownership of key brands alongside a stock portfolio that includes Apple and other blue chip stocks.
That could be why it's no surprise that Benzinga readers recently selected Buffett as the person <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/08/40423891/buffett-musk-wood-cuban-or-ackman-who-do-investors-trust-most-with-life-savings-poll-shows-it-isnt-e">they would trust </a>most with investing their life savings in a poll. Buffett was selected with an overwhelming 58% of the vote over the likes of Ray Dalio, Cathie Wood, Elon Musk, Bill Ackman, Mark Cuban and Jamie Dimon.
Berkshire Hathaway shares are up 31% in the past year and up 129% over the last five years.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Nvidia Earnings Expectations: A High Bar Set</h3>
Wall Street has set an ambitious target for Nvidia this quarter, with revenue expected to hit $28.74 billion — a staggering 17% increase from the previous quarter and an eye-popping 156% jump from the same quarter last year. 
Earnings per share (EPS) are forecasted to rise to 65 cents, up from 56 cents in the prior quarter and 21 cents in the same period last year.
Goldman Sachs&#8217; semiconductor analyst, Toshiya Hari, is bullish on Nvidia&#8217;s prospects, predicting the company will surpass these already lofty expectations. 
&#8220;We believe customer demand across the large Cloud Service Providers and enterprises is strong, and Nvidia&#8217;s robust competitive position in AI/accelerated computing remains intact,&#8221; Hari stated in a note published this month. 
The driving force behind this optimism? Data Center revenues and strong operating leverage. Hari highlights three key areas: robust demand for the H100 GPUs, the launch of volume shipments of the H200, and the ramp-up of Nvidia&#8217;s Ethernet-based networking product, Spectrum-X. These factors could fuel a significant earnings beat, potentially leading to upward revisions in EPS.
Shares of the AI tech giant are up 159% year to date, after surging by 239% in 2023. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Historical Volatility: A Look At Past Nvidia Earnings</h3>
Nvidia&#8217;s stock has a history of sharp rallies post-earnings, with an average one-day boost of 9% over the past eight quarters and 7.1% over the last four.
A Goldman Sachs analysis identified the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) as having the highest average post-earnings move (3.4%) following Nvidia's past eight earnings releases. 
It was followed by the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NYSE">SOXX</a>) at 2.9% and the ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>) at 2.4%.

Why Is Polestar Automotive Stock Diving Today?

Greenway Greenhouse Cannabis Corporation (CSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GWAY#CSE">GWAY</a>) (OTCQB:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GWAYF#OTCQB">GWAYF</a>), a Canadian cannabis cultivator reported its interim financial statements on Wednesday for the first quarter ended June 30, 2024.
The Ontario-based company said it has achieved its highest net revenue and adjusted EBITDA results to date. The company also achieved positive net cash flow provided by operating activities, and the highest amount of cannabis sold in a quarter to date.

"This performance reflects our focus and commitment to producing quality cannabis, and finding the best partners and pathways to bring it to consumers,&#8221; said CEO Jamie D&#8217;Alimonte. &#8220;We achieved this while still keeping our cost of production low, and our yields high.

<li>Nvidia is poised for a dramatic shift in market value, with a potential swing of $300 billion in its market cap.</li>
<li>Nvidia&#39;s current valuation is approximately $3.14 trillion.</li>
<li>Bullish signs in Nvidia&#39;s stock suggest a possible move towards $150.</li>
</ul>
As NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) prepares for its upcoming earnings report, the tech giant stands on the brink of a potentially historic change in its market value. Industry analysts, using options pricing data, predict a possible swing of up to $300 billion in Nvidia&#39;s market capitalization.
This figure not only reflects the company&#39;s large valuation, around $3.14 trillion but also highlights the significant impact such a change could have, overshadowing the market caps of most S&amp;P 500 companies.
The stakes are especially high now. Market sensitivities are elevated, with options traders anticipating a 9.8% stock price fluctuation after the earnings announcement. This is significantly higher than what&#39;s been typical over the past three years.
The increased volatility expectation highlights investors&#39; strong focus on Nvidia. The company has driven about 25% of the S&amp;P 500&#39;s gains this year, underscoring its impact on the broader market.
The anticipated earnings per share of $0.57 will be announced after market close this Wednesday, potentially driving expected fluctuations.
Nvidia&rsquo;s recent market performance adds complexity to the story. The stock has jumped 40% from this month&rsquo;s lows, boosting investor confidence. This rebound is part of a larger upward trend, with a 157% gain year-to-date, including a 9% increase in August.
Historically, Nvidia has shown strong recovery ability, bouncing back from sharp declines, as seen in the recent rally. This resilience is fueling the current bullish momentum, putting the stock close to previous record highs if it gains 10%.
However, navigating the stock market, especially with high-stakes earnings reports, requires nuance. A positive earnings surprise doesn&#39;t automatically lead to a stock price increase, as broader market dynamics and investor sentiment can separate financial results from stock performance.
<img alt="2024-08-28_15-26-20.jpg" src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/u517520/2024-08-28_15-26-20.jpg" style="height:308px; width:624px" />
This unpredictability makes the upcoming earnings report crucial. Adding complexity is Nvidia&#39;s stock movement within a significant range of $90 to $140.
Signs of bullish momentum in this zone suggest the possibility of a breakout. If the stock surpasses the $140 mark, it could quickly target the next resistance level at $150, paving the way for further gains.
After the closing bell on Wednesday, August 27, the stock closed at $128.30, trading down by 1.52%.

<h3>Understanding the Significance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions are not the sole determinant of investment choices, but they are a factor worth considering.
When discussing legal matters, the term "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. Such insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be completed within two business days of the transaction.
A new purchase by a company insider is a indication that they anticipate the stock will rise.
On the other hand, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.

<h3>Unmasking the Significance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions should be considered alongside other factors when making investment decisions, as they can offer important insights.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down.
