Chubb Stock Jumps After Buffett's Berkshire Reveals $6.7B Stake

Chubb shares (CB) jumped over 8% in late trade on Wednesday after Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway revealed a $6.7 billion stake in the Zurich-based insurer. Buffett recently told shareholders that property-casualty insurance provides the core of Berkshire's well-being and growth. Berkshire had been building its position in Chubb since 2023, but had not previously disclosed the stake after the SEC granted it permission to keep the holding confidential.

Berkshire's stake of nearly 26 million shares in Chubb (CB), one of the world's largest publicly traded property-casualty insurers, had a market value of around $6.7 billion as of March 31, making it the conglomerate's nineth largest holding. The investment is driven by Berkshire's heavy footprint in the insurance industry, which Buffett recently told shareholders that "property-casualty insurance" provides the core of Berkshire's well-being and growth.

The stock has continued to track higher since bottoming out in June last year, with the trend gathering momentum after the 50-day moving average crossed above the 200-day MA to form a bullish golden cross signal. Recently, the stock has traded within an ascending triangle, indicating a continuation of the longer-term uptrend.

Moreover, Chubb (CB) has a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 71.75 which is overbought hence, a trend reversal might lurk in the corners.
