|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 14/11/2025 | Berkshire Hathaway / Alphabet | BRK.A/GOOGL | Major Investment | Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway disclosed acquiring $4.9 billion stake in Alphabet (17.85 million Class A shares, 0.31% ownership) in Q3 2025 via 13F filing. This marks one of the final major investments under Buffett before he steps down as CEO on December 31, with Greg Abel taking over. Alphabet became Berkshire's 10th largest holding. The tech-averse Buffett's rare move into Big Tech (beyond Apple which he views as consumer products) provides institutional validation of Alphabet's AI cloud profitability and search advertising dominance. Stock surged 5-6% on Monday following Friday disclosure, adding approximately $30 billion in market value. Investment likely made by lieutenants Todd Combs or Ted Weschler but at this scale typically has Buffett's blessing. Buffett previously admitted he 'blew it' by not investing in Google early despite Geico's experience with Google advertising effectiveness. | High | https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/14/warren-buffetts-berkshire-hathaway-reveals-new-position-in-alphabet.html |
| 2 | 11/11/2025 | SoftBank / Nvidia | 9984.T/NVDA | Divestment | SoftBank sold its entire $5.83 billion Nvidia stake (32.1 million shares) in October to fund aggressive AI investments including $22.5 billion OpenAI commitment and $6.5 billion all-cash Ampere Computing acquisition. Announced alongside fiscal Q2 earnings showing surprise net income of ¥2.5 trillion ($16.2 billion), far exceeding ¥418.2 billion analyst estimates. This marks SoftBank's second complete exit from Nvidia (also sold $3.6 billion stake in 2019 - would now be worth $150+ billion). CFO Yoshimitsu Goto emphasized sale was for 'capital utilization for financing' not loss of confidence in AI or Nvidia specifically. SoftBank also sold $9.17 billion T-Mobile stake in same period. Vision Fund recorded $19 billion gain driven largely by OpenAI valuation increase of $14.6 billion. Founder Masayoshi Son pivoting from passive chip investment to direct AI ecosystem ownership through Stargate data centers, $1 trillion Arizona AI manufacturing hub, and vertical integration via Arm-based Ampere chips. Nvidia stock declined 3% on news; SoftBank shares fell 10% next day as investors worried about AI bubble despite strong earnings. | High | https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/11/softbank-sells-its-entire-stake-in-nvidia-for-5point83-billion.html |
| 3 | 19/11/2025 | Nvidia | NVDA | Earnings Anticipation | Most anticipated tech earnings of Q4 2025 scheduled for November 19 after market close. Wall Street consensus expects revenue of $54.79 billion (up 56% YoY) and EPS of $1.25 (up 54% YoY) for fiscal Q3 2026. CEO Jensen Huang disclosed in October that Nvidia has $500 billion in combined orders for 2025 and 2026 including current Blackwell GPUs and next-gen Rubin GPUs plus networking equipment - signaling meaningfully higher 2026 revenue than previously expected. Multiple analysts raised price targets ahead of results: Oppenheimer reiterated $265 Outperform, Susquehanna raised to $230 citing 14% Blackwell Ultra pricing strength, UBS expects $63-64 billion Q4 guidance, BofA highlights healthcare AI expansion. Stock trading near $190 after recovering from $188 low, having peaked at $207 in early November. Options market shows implied volatility near 70% with mechanical resistance from gamma dynamics potentially limiting upside despite likely beat. Market viewing results as litmus test for whether AI infrastructure spending can justify current tech valuations. Michael Burry's Q3 bearish bets (put options) and SoftBank's exit created sentiment overhang despite $500 billion backlog validating sustained demand through 2026. | High | https://www.kiplinger.com/investing/live/nvidia-earnings-live-updates-and-commentary-november-2025 |
| 4 | 14/11/2025 | Berkshire Hathaway | BRK.A | Portfolio Rebalancing | Final 13F filing before Warren Buffett steps down as CEO revealed continued Apple stake reduction (down 15% to 238.2 million shares worth $60.7 billion, now 74% below peak 900+ million shares) and Bank of America reduction (down 6% to 568 million shares worth $29.9 billion). Apple remains largest holding despite aggressive trimming. Also reduced Verisign and DaVita stakes while exiting DR Horton homebuilder position completely. Added positions beyond Alphabet include Chubb, Domino's Pizza, Lennar, and Sirius XM. Marks 12th consecutive quarter as net seller of stocks - bought $6.4 billion but sold $12.5 billion in Q3, with cash reserves hitting record $381.7 billion. Portfolio rebalancing reflects Buffett's valuation discipline ahead of leadership transition to Greg Abel on January 1, 2026. The pivot from concentrated Apple position toward diversified tech exposure (adding Alphabet while maintaining $2.2 billion Amazon stake) signals recognition that Big Tech has matured into businesses with economic moats, predictable cash flows, and defensive characteristics historically sought by Berkshire. | High | https://finance.yahoo.com/news/berkshire-buys-shares-google-parent-213955443.html |

| 8 | 17/11/2025 | Micron Technology | MU | Product Launch | Announced 192GB SOCAMM2 low-power memory module for AI data centers, built on 1-gamma DRAM process using LPDDR5X technology. Module delivers 50% more capacity than previous generation in same footprint with 20% better power efficiency - critical for power-hungry AI clusters. Micron claims module can reduce time-to-first-token (TTFT) by over 80% in real-time inference workloads. Product builds on October collaboration with Nvidia to move low-power DRAM from mobile devices to data-center-class deployment. Multiple analysts raised targets following product news and strong market positioning: Morgan Stanley increased to Street-high $325 price target (up from $300) implying substantial upside even from mid-November highs; Piper Sandler reiterated $200 Overweight rating noting HBM3E capacity for 2026 is already mostly sold out with remaining supply likely committed within months. Management expects HBM supply tightness to persist through 2025 into 2026, supporting pricing power and margins. Micron plans to begin shipping HBM4 in Q2 2026, reinforcing leading-edge roadmap. However, competitive dynamics intensifying as Samsung reportedly cutting some HBM prices by ~30% to gain share. Stock hit new 2025 highs on developments, up dramatically from fiscal 2024 lows. | High | https://ts2.tech/en/micron-technology-mu-stock-today-november-17-2025-300-price-target-ai-memory-breakthroughs-and-new-highs/ |
| 9 | 10-17/11/2025 | Tech Industry | Multiple | AI Capital Expenditure | Collective AI infrastructure spending commitments from major tech companies for 2025-2026 now exceed $380 billion following updated guidance during October-November earnings season. Google raised 2025 capex forecast to $91-93 billion (up from $85 billion). Microsoft expects fiscal 2026 spending of $34.9 billion, up 74% YoY, largely for Azure infrastructure and AI data centers. Meta spent $19.37 billion in Q3 (annualized ~$77 billion run-rate) exceeding $18.4 billion analyst expectations, with Reality Labs burning $4.4 billion quarterly despite minimal revenue. Amazon estimates 2025 spending will hit $125 billion with plans to increase further in 2026. Even Apple increased AI-related capital expenditure commitments. Oracle secured $18 billion funding from 20 banks for New Mexico data center. Spending surge validates Nvidia's disclosed $500 billion order backlog through 2026 and drives semiconductor demand (Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, TSMC) plus memory supply constraints (Micron HBM3E sold out). However, massive spending with uncertain ROI timeline fueling AI bubble concerns. Gene Munster (Deepwater Asset Management) noted 'Catch-22' where stronger Nvidia guidance paradoxically amplifies investor worries about overspending. Morgan Stanley estimates AI hyperscalers planning ~$3 trillion data center infrastructure spend through 2028. | High | https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/31/tech-ai-google-meta-amazon-microsoft-spend.html |
| 10 | 13/11/2025 | Microsoft | MSFT | Middle East Investment | Microsoft announced $15.2 billion investment in AI and cloud computing infrastructure across United Arab Emirates, tripling its regional presence and accelerating Azure cloud expansion in Gulf region. Investment includes new data centers, AI infrastructure deployment, and workforce training programs. Announcement came day before Palantir-Dubai Holding joint venture reveal, highlighting Middle East as critical battleground for AI infrastructure dominance. UAE investment part of broader Microsoft Middle East strategy following earlier $7.9 billion commitment announced November 3 spanning cloud infrastructure through 2029. Microsoft President Brad Smith emphasized strategic importance of Gulf partnerships despite US export constraints. Investment enables Microsoft to deploy latest Nvidia AI chips under strict safeguards following US government clearance, removing major export barrier. Regional expansion supports Microsoft's massive $34.9 billion fiscal 2026 capital expenditure plan (up 74% YoY) focused on AI infrastructure globally. Positions Microsoft to compete with Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, and Oracle for AI workload dominance in high-growth Middle East market as sovereign AI strategies accelerate across Gulf nations. | High | https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/13/microsoft-invests-15-2-billion-in-uae-ai-and-cloud-operations |
