What stands out

Berkshire Hathaway's second-quarter moves put Alphabet into the conglomerate's top three holdings while it also added to Delta Air Lines and homebuilders, a shift CNBC flagged. The change matters because a widely followed value buyer is tilting toward big-cap tech and cyclical travel and housing exposure at the same time, which is not the usual one-way trade. For investors, it is a reminder to separate long-term business strength from short-term price noise.
