Trend: EMA 20 / 50 / 200

Bullish, high confidence Week of September 25, 2026

BULLISH, due to a strong bullish EMA stack and price trading above all key moving averages, high confidence.

The latest weekly close for BRK-B is 505.48. This places the price above its weekly EMA20 of 500.66 by 0.96%. It is also above the weekly EMA50 of 494.26 by 2.27%, and significantly above the weekly EMA200 of 433.55 by 16.59%.

The weekly EMA stack for BRK-B is bullish, with the EMA20 (500.66) above the EMA50 (494.26), which is in turn above the EMA200 (433.55). This configuration indicates a strong uptrend. It is important to note that the EMA stack describes the prevailing trend and not specific entry or exit timing.

No EMA50/EMA200 cross was found within the computable window.

What would change this read: A change in this bullish read would occur if the weekly close falls below the EMA20 of 500.66, signaling a potential short-term weakening. A more significant bearish shift would be indicated if the price drops below the weekly EMA50 of 494.26.

Momentum: MACD (12, 26, 9)

Bullish, medium confidence Week of September 25, 2026

BULLISH, MACD above its signal and zero lines, medium confidence.

MACD versus Signal Line

The weekly MACD for BRK-B is 5.02, which is above its signal line of 4.48. This indicates a bullish posture. The last bullish signal-line crossover occurred on 2026-06-01, 17 weeks ago.

Histogram

The histogram is positive at 0.5406. However, the 4-bar change is -0.9753, indicating that positive momentum is decelerating.

Zero-Line Position

The MACD is currently above the zero line. The last bullish zero-line cross, distinct from the signal-line crossover, occurred on 2026-06-29, 13 weeks ago.

Divergence Checks

No bearish divergence was found based on the last two price pivots (2026-08-03 close 521.8/macd 5.1341 -> 2026-09-07 close 510.37/macd 5.2816). No bullish divergence was found based on the last two price pivots (2026-07-13 close 490.91/macd 1.3643 -> 2026-08-17 close 495.82/macd 4.546).

What would change this read

A shift to a bearish outlook would occur if the MACD falls below its signal line of 4.48, or if the MACD crosses below the zero line. A negative histogram, which would result from the MACD falling below its signal line, would also indicate a change in momentum.

Strength: RSI (14)

Neutral, medium confidence Week of September 25, 2026

NEUTRAL, current RSI is neutral and falling, medium confidence.

BRK-B's weekly RSI(14) is currently 54.02, placing it in a neutral state (overbought is at or above 70.00, oversold is at or below 30.00).

Over the last four weeks, the weekly RSI has been falling, moving from 55.02 four weeks ago to its current 54.02.

The most recent band event occurred 82 weeks ago on 2025-03-03, when the weekly RSI fell back below 70.00.

No bearish divergence was found based on the last two price pivots (2026-08-03 close 521.8/RSI 64.17 -> 2026-09-07 close 510.37/RSI 56.82). Similarly, no bullish divergence was found based on the last two price pivots (2026-07-13 close 490.91/RSI 51.1 -> 2026-08-17 close 495.82/RSI 50.82).

What would change this read

A shift in this read would occur if the weekly RSI moved into overbought territory (at or above 70.00) or into oversold territory (at or below 30.00). The emergence of a confirmed bullish or bearish divergence would also alter this assessment.

Volatility: ATR (14)

Volatility contracting, high confidence Week of September 25, 2026

CONTRACTING, volatility is contracting compared to eight weeks ago, high confidence.

The current weekly ATR(14) for BRK-B is 14.12. This represents 2.79% of the latest weekly close price of 505.48, indicating the average weekly true range in dollar terms.

Volatility is contracting. The current ATR(14) of 14.12 is lower than the ATR 8 weeks ago, which was 15.65. This suggests that the average weekly price fluctuation has decreased over the past eight weeks.

The 1x ATR band from the latest weekly close of 505.48 spans from 491.36 to 519.6. This range describes the expected normal weekly movement for BRK-B. The 2x ATR band, from 477.23 to 533.73, represents a wider, less common but still possible expected weekly range for the stock. These bands describe expected weekly range, not price predictions.

What would change this read

  • – A rise in the weekly ATR(14) above 15.65 would indicate expanding volatility.
  • – A fall in the weekly ATR(14) below 10.00 would signal a further significant contraction in volatility.
  • – The weekly close moving outside the 2x ATR band of 477.23 to 533.73 would suggest an exceptionally volatile week.

52-week range

Neutral, medium confidence Week of September 25, 2026

NEUTRAL, positioned above the 52-week range midpoint, medium confidence.

The 52-week high for BRK-B is 537.74, set on 2026-08-10. The 52-week low is 464.01, set on 2026-04-13.

The latest weekly close of 505.48 is -6.00% from its 52-week high and 8.94% above its 52-week low.

BRK-B is currently positioned at 56.20% within its 52-week range, with 0% representing the low and 100% representing the high. This places the stock above the midpoint of its 52-week range (500.88), indicating it is trading in the upper half of its annual price fluctuations. This position suggests a moderate upward bias or consolidation within the upper portion of its longer cycle, rather than being at an extreme low or high.

What would change this read

A weekly close above 537.74 would signal a breakout to a new 52-week high. A weekly close below the 52-week range midpoint of 500.88 would indicate a shift to the lower half of its annual range. A weekly close at or below 464.01 would confirm a retest of the 52-week low.
