▼ + stars: | 2024-11-05 | by ( John Towfighi | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +3 min

CNN —Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway has over $325 billion in cash on hand. Berkshire Hathaway was a net seller of stocks across its portfolio that quarter and grew its cash-on-hand to record amounts. Berkshire Hathaway’s actions signal to investors that its stock might be overvalued, Cathy Seifert, an analyst at CFRA Research, told CNN. Buffett will repurchase shares when he thinks the price is “below Berkshire’s intrinsic value, conservatively determined,” according to Berkshire Hathaway’s regulatory filings. “All this suggests that Buffett has serious concerns about the economic backdrop and the current state of the stock market,” Mould said in a note.

What kind of influence will Nvidia have on the 30-stock index when it joins before the bell this Friday? Instead, share price determines how much a single stock can move the Dow on a daily basis. A $1 move in any Dow stock translates to roughly 6.6 points on the index. By considering both share price and historical volatility, we can estimate each stock's potential influence on the index. According to a CNBC analysis of FactSet data, Nvidia would rank as the eighth-largest influence on the Dow based on its share price and recent volatility.
