Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway reveals housing market changes, trends

Friday, October 3, 2025

The government might be shut but stocks are jumping on the third day of the shutdown, on track to close out their best day of the quarter so far.

The Russell 2000 (+1.48%), Dow (+1.11%), S&P 500 (+0.48%), and Nasdaq (+0.24%) are all higher today. And all four have set record highs today. It’s not just the indexes, either: An astonishing 69.3% of U.S. stocks are advancing today, per FinViz.

Friday Reading:.

• Salesforce AI faces backlash from customers
• Apple analyst unveils dire forecast after iPhone 17 launch
• Costco shares key news on membership price increases
• Cathie Wood pours millions into a tech giant
• Palantir's demand boom isn't slowing
• Nike has frustrating news for customers

That's even without the payroll report today from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, just the ISM Services & S&P Global PMI data, which were mostly in line with expectations. (There was some softness in the ISM's New Orders and Business Activity, which swung to the downside in September.)

Aside from that, there's truly nothing that seems to be derailing investors, which are still stacking on bets that third-quarter earnings are going to deliver, the AI boom is going to keep booming, and the Federal Reserve will again cut interest rates at the end of the month. Fear, doubt, uncertainty? Never mind.
