It has maintained its holdings since the 2015 merger that Buffett helped facilitate in partnership with Brazilian private equity firm 3G Capital.While 3G Capital exited its investment in Kraft Heinz in 2023, Berkshire continued to hold onto it. Asked about his plans for Berkshire’s stake in the food giant, Buffett said the company will do whatever is in the best interests of the firm, according to the report. He added that Berkshire will not accept a block bid unless other Kraft Heinz shareholders also receive a similar offer.Earlier on Tuesday, Kraft Heinz announced that while the names of the two proposed independent public companies have not yet been finalized, one of them will include Heinz, Philadelphia, and Kraft Mac &amp; Cheese in its portfolio. The other company, it said, will include a portfolio of brands such as Oscar Mayer, Kraft Singles, and Lunchables.Miguel Patricio, executive chairman of the Kraft Heinz board, explained that the company's existing structure makes capital allocation difficult. “By separating into two companies, we can allocate the right level of attention and resources to unlock the potential of each brand to drive better performance and the creation of long-term shareholder value,” Patricio said.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/KHC">KHC stock</a> is down 14% year-to-date and 26% over the past 12 months.Also See:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/gold-price-rises-gld-surges-investors-flock-to-safe-haven-analyst-predicts/chv6rzuRdnU">Gold Price Rises As Investors Flock To Safe Haven Amid Growing Uncertainties: Analyst Predicts This Level If Conditions Deteriorate</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

CSX Corp. CEO Joe Hinrichs stated on Wednesday that railroad companies need to collaborate to address industry challenges and achieve sustainable growth.“We’ll open all possibilities to create value for shareholders, properly grow the business, and serve our customers better,” Hinrichs said in an interview with Jim Cramer at CNBC. “We can do all of those by working with other railroads.”Railroad firms have found renewed interest over the past few weeks, ever since Union Pacific agreed to buy Norfolk Southern to create a coast-to-coast powerhouse. According to a CNBC <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/08/27/as-railroad-merger-rumors-swirl-csx-ceo-says-working-with-peers-is-the-best-way-to-boost-value-.html">report,</a> Hinrichs noted that a merger is not necessary for the company to increase efficiency and give customers a “seamless experience.”He reportedly said that a merger remains an “option,” and the company would consider it if it received a suitable offer.Retail sentiment on Stocktwits about <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/CSX">CSX</a> was in ‘extremely bullish’ territory at the time of writing.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:803/98;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/CSX_Aug_27_JPG_e7a08056b2.webp" alt="CSX’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 11:15 p.m. ET on Aug. 27, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="803" height="98"><figcaption>CSX’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 11:15 p.m. ET on Aug. 27, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>Earlier this month, activist investor Ancora urged CSX to pursue a merger with a rival railroad operator or remove Hinrichs as CEO, on concerns that CSX would be at a disadvantage following the merger between Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern.According to a CNBC report, Hinrichs stated that CSX is currently focused on its recent partnership with Berkshire Hathaway’s BNSF Railway, which aims to create new coast-to-coast railroad services to bolster freight transportation by making it faster and more efficient.He added that the partnership enables the companies to collaborate and improve their business without having to wait for regulatory approval.Earlier this week, Berkshire Chairman Warren Buffett dashed some hopes of a merger between BNSF and CSX after noting that, although he met with Hinrichs in early August, the company was not interested in acquiring CSX.Hinrichs also denied receiving an offer from Berkshire but said the conglomerate made it clear that it wants to work together to “create growth opportunities” for everyone.CSX stock has slipped marginally this year.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/mexico-raises-tariff-heat-on-china-to-defend-factories-keep-trump-happy-report/chsCMroRdlS">Mexico Raises Tariff Heat On China To Defend Factories, Keep Trump Happy: Report</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Warren Buffett, the ‘Oracle of Omaha,’&nbsp; may be reportedly trimming stocks because he’s expecting a stock market downturn, according to Wedbush’s Paul Dietrich.&nbsp;The senior strategist&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/warren-buffett-stock-sales-cash-apple-dietrich-market-crash-recession-2025-8">told</a> Business Insider that Buffett has a track record of exiting markets before recessions, noting Berkshire Hathaway&nbsp;(BRK.A/BRK.B)&nbsp;has sold more stocks than it bought for 11 straight quarters even as equities hit record highs. He also highlighted that, over that stretch, the conglomerate offloaded $212 billion of shares while only purchasing $34.5 billion. This puts net disposals at more than $177 billion, exceeding the market value of companies such as BlackRock (BLK) or Boeing (BA).<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/BRK.B">Berkshire Hathaway’s stock</a> edged 0.8% higher in midday trade with retail sentiment on Stocktwits in the ‘bullish’ zone amid ‘high’ levels of chatter. The stock has gained 5% this year and 8% over the past 12 months.&nbsp;Dietrich suggested Buffett could reload on names like Apple (AAPL) and others if prices tumble.&nbsp;He said that Buffet would use his cash pile "to eventually buy back Apple and the other shares he has sold—but at a major discount—after the current nose-bleed stock market highs eventually come back down to earth." In addition to Apple, Berkshire Hathaway has also been trimming its stake in Bank of America (BAC) this year.<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/AAPL">Apple’s stock</a> edged 0.13% lower in midday trade as retail sentiment on Stocktwits trended in ‘bearish territory. The shares have fallen 7% this year but gained 2.5% over the past 12 months. &nbsp;Meanwhile,&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/BAC">Bank of America’s stock</a> edged 0.26% lower in midday trade with retail sentiment in the ‘bearish’ zone as well. This year, the stock is up more than 8%. It has gained more than 21% over the past 12 months.&nbsp;Dietrich also noted that Berkshire’s cash pile has more than tripled in three years to a record $344 billion. He added that Buffett has also paused buybacks for four straight quarters, a sharp contrast to 2020 and 2021 when Berkshire spent more than $20 billion annually repurchasing its own stock. Dietrich argued that Buffett no longer sees Berkshire shares as cheap.Buffett has followed this playbook before. Ahead of the dot-com crash, Berkshire grew its cash from $11 billion in 1997 to $35 billion in 1998, and boosted net sales to $2.7 billion in 2000. By the time the financial crisis hit, Berkshire had amassed more than $70 billion, allowing Buffett to pick up stocks on the cheap.Dietrich added that the “Buffett Indicator” — the ratio of U.S. market cap to GDP — has soared above 210%, far above Buffett’s own cautionary threshold of 200%, which he once described as “playing with fire.”Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/lutnick-says-us-may-take-intel-stake-to-counter-china-risk/chsglN4Rdgw">Lutnick Says US May Take Intel Stake To Counter China Risk, Highlights Nvidia CEO’s Active Role In Chip Policy</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Dow Futures Rise As Wall Street Eyes A Strong Weekly Close: INTC, AAPL, UNH, BRK, AMAT Among Stocks To Watch

While Dow Jones futures gained 0.67% at the time of writing, the S&P 500 futures rose 0.15%.

UnitedHealth Group soared 11% in after-hours trading Thursday to $300.5, marking its first close above $300 in a month, following regulatory filings that showed Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway and Michael Burry’s Scion Asset Management each made large new investments in the health insurer during the second quarter.Berkshire purchased more than 5 million shares, worth approximately $1.6 billion, at the end of June, as shown in the filing.&nbsp;It is Berkshire’s first stake in UnitedHealth since selling out in 2010, when Buffett exited the stock amid a broader retreat from health insurers.&nbsp;The move positions UnitedHealth as Berkshire’s 18th-largest equity holding, behind Amazon and Constellation Brands, according to a CNBC&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/08/14/warren-buffetts-berkshire-hathaway-unh.html">report</a>. Given Berkshire’s roughly $300 billion equity portfolio, the trade could have been made by investment managers Todd Combs or Ted Weschler, similar to the firm’s 2019 purchase of Amazon stock.The investment comes despite a bruising year for UnitedHealth, weighed down by surging medical costs, a Justice Department investigation into Medicare billing practices, the fallout from the killing of a top executive, and a cyberattack last year.&nbsp;In May, the company withdrew its annual earnings outlook and CEO Andrew Witty stepped down. Last month, it issued a new 2025 forecast that came in well below Wall Street estimates, adding to pressure on&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/UNH">UnitedHealth’s shares</a>.Meanwhile, Burry’s Scion Asset Management disclosed a combination of call options tied to 350,000 UnitedHealth shares and a direct holding of roughly 20,000 shares valued at around $6 million.&nbsp;Known as the “Big Short” investor for his prescient bet against the U.S. housing market before the 2008 crash, Burry has&nbsp;typically taken a bearish stance in recent years.&nbsp;His UnitedHealth position stands out for both its timing and structure, targeting upside in a stock that has declined nearly 46% so far this year. The move comes as Medicare Advantage rates for 2026 have exceeded expectations and the insurer’s competitive positioning remains intact despite recent turbulence.UnitedHealth’s rally was further underpinned by fresh disclosures of hedge fund buying.&nbsp;Dodge &amp; Cox acquired 4.73 million shares, while David Tepper’s Appaloosa boosted its stake to 2.45 million shares from 180,000 in the first quarter, now worth approximately $764 million. Additionally, Renaissance Technologies purchased 1.35 million shares.&nbsp;Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund also reported holding call options in the company.Buffett has long railed on the inefficiencies of the U.S. healthcare system, calling it a “tapeworm” on the economy years ago. In 2018, Buffett partnered with Bezos and Jamie Dimon to&nbsp;establish a healthcare company that would streamline health services for employees, but the effort was ultimately shuttered.&nbsp;His return to UnitedHealth, alongside Burry’s high-leverage wager and heavy buying from other large funds, signals renewed institutional interest in a company that has been one of the worst performers in the S&amp;P 500 this year.On Stocktwits, UnitedHealth was the top trending ticker, with retail sentiment turning ‘bullish’ as 24-hour message volume jumped 217%.One user&nbsp;labeled Buffett and Burry&nbsp;scooping up UNH stock&nbsp;during a “flash correction” as “the Avengers of investing uniting.”<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/fluxos/message/625277973</stembedurl>Another user predicted the rally was only just starting, noting the stock had traded above $600 before recent setbacks and saying tomorrow could be “a monster day,” adding that they planned to buy more before the market opened.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/bombastic_/message/625278713</stembedurl>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

The housing market could be an attractive proposition for home buyers and borrowers looking to refinance their existing borrowings, as 2026 mortgage rates trend lower, with refinancing rates hitting more than a five-month low.Data&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bankofamerica.com/mortgage/refinance-rates/">from</a> Bank of America shows that the refinancing rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage is now down to 6.625% for a current loan balance of $200,000.This refinance rate is applicable for borrowers with a credit score of 740 or higher. It comes down to 5.5% if the term is reduced to 15 years, fixed. According to an analysis by&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.investopedia.com/considering-refinancing-mortgage-rates-have-hit-a-new-5-month-low-11786389">Investopedia</a>, refinancing rates are now down to their lowest since the beginning of March for a 30-year fixed refinance loan.In July, Warren Buffett-led Berkshire Hathaway Inc.’s (BRK-A) (BRK-B) HomeServices&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bhhsthepreferredrealty.com/blog/blog-detail/2025/8/u-s--real-estate-market-forecast-for-q4,-2025.html">predicted</a> a softening in the housing market.The firm noted that despite the expected softening, home prices are unlikely to fall dramatically. “Instead, they expect prices to continue rising—just at a slower pace. Slightly lower rates might encourage buyers to act, especially if more sellers list homes to beat any potential price correction. That could increase inventory and put downward pressure on prices,” the firm said in its note.It added that most housing experts expect home price relief to arrive sometime in 2026 or later, even as refinance rates have cooled down notably.Refinancing mortgages makes financial sense when borrowers have an option to go from a relatively higher interest rate to a lower one, helping save a considerable amount of money in the long run.Meanwhile, U.S. equities edged up in Monday’s morning trading session.
