Berkshire Hathaway’s Class A and Class B shares rose this week to their highest level in eight months, according to BIT(bit.com) market data cited by BlockBeats on Aug. 2. The move came even though Berkshire has still underperformed the S&P 500 so far this year. Part of the support, according to the report, has come from three major holdings in Berkshire’s portfolio: Apple, Coca-Cola and Bank of America. Berkshire’s stake in Apple, its largest holding, is now valued at more than $70 billion, with Apple shares up more than 13% this year. Its Coca-Cola position, the firm’s third-largest holding, stands at $35 billion, while Coca-Cola stock has climbed 25% year to date. Bank of America, Berkshire’s fourth-largest holding, has gained more than 12% this year. UBS analysts raised their target price on Berkshire and kept a buy rating, while also lifting earnings forecasts for the company. The market is also watching Berkshire’s second-quarter share repurchase activity, with speculation that buybacks may have reached as much as $11 billion. Exact figures are expected in the company’s second-quarter earnings report scheduled for Aug. 8. The report also listed Berkshire’s top 10 holdings based on its latest public 13F filing for the first quarter of 2026.

Bitget has introduced what it calls the first cross-asset Unified Trading Account, or UTA, in the industry, bringing more than 370 assets into a single margin pool. The rollout includes 100 tokenized U.S. stock products under its rToken line, allowing eligible holdings to be used not only as investment exposure but also as margin and collateral inside one account. According to the company, users can combine cryptocurrencies, tokenized U.S. equities and other real-world-asset-related holdings in the same account for derivatives trading, leveraged positions and collateralized borrowing. Bitget frames the product as the third stage in the evolution of unified accounts: from single-currency margin systems, to multi-crypto margin pools, and now to a cross-asset framework that includes tokenized stocks and RWA products. The company said rToken can serve three functions inside UTA: holding exposure to the underlying asset’s price performance, contributing to account margin, and being pledged to borrow stablecoins. Bitget also said the 100 supported rToken assets cover large-cap U.S. names, broad market indexes, preferred shares, technology, semiconductors, AI infrastructure, finance, consumer, energy, healthcare and communications.
