| Week's advances bring Berkshire's shares to new all-time highs Both classes of Berkshire Hathaway shares closed higher on four of this week's five trading days, bringing them to new all-time intraday and closing highs today.
The Class A shares closed today at $365,000 each, up 3.0% since last Friday's close.
Berkshire's Class B stock closed at $242.46, a gain of 3.1% from Friday.
It's up almost 21% from its near-term closing low in late October. 
Berkshire could be the "next mega-cap breakout" As the stock is hitting new highs, a "Fast Money Halftime Report" trader is predicting there could be a lot more to come.
On Tuesday's program, Ritholtz Wealth Management CEO Josh Brown explained how a growing gap between short-term and long-term interest rates could fuel a significant rally for Berkshire.
Coming soon: Berkshire's latest stock moves After Tuesday's (February 16) market close, we're expecting Berkshire Hathaway to file its quarterly report on the publicly-traded U.S. stocks in its portfolio as of December 31, the end of 2020's fourth quarter.
In its Q3 report three months ago, we saw a reduction for financial stocks and an increase for health care holdings.
That report also said "confidential information" had been omitted, usually a sign that Berkshire is building a stock position and doesn't want to tip its hand until its done, so that copycats can't drive the price higher.
It possible the secret could be revealed in Tuesday's filing, but there's no guarantee, of course.

BUFFETT AROUND THE INTERNET Some links may require a subscription
HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE ARCHIVE
Something odd happened this week. For no apparent reason, stories with headlines along the lines of "Warren Buffett once revealed which president Princess Diana deemed 'sexiest man alive'" popped up on sites like People.com, NBC's Today.com, CheatSheet.com, Britain's Daily Express, and MarieClaire.com.
They cited a story I wrote in 2012 on CNBC.com that includes a transcript of the portion of a live "Squawk Box" interview in which Buffett describes the dramatic reveal by Princess Diana at a party thrown by Washington Post publisher Katharine Graham.
The story doesn't have video, so I went into the Archive and created a clip.
Now, for the first time in almost nine years, you can see and hear Buffett talking about the revelation that's caught a little bit of the internet's attention. BERKSHIRE STOCK WATCH
