Maybe upgrader_process_complete() action hook.

Fires when the bulk upgrader process is complete.

do_action( 'upgrader_process_complete', $this, $options['hook_extra'] );

This below is just the example from codex (it is noted as untested there, btw), and I edited it to show a possible instance of all plugin updates:

add_action( 'upgrader_process_complete', 'my_upgrate_function',10, 2);

function my_upgrate_function( $upgrader_object, $options ) {


    if ($options['action'] == 'update' && $options['type'] == 'plugin' ) {

       foreach($options['packages'] as $each_plugin) {

             // do stuff

       }//end foreach
    }//end if
}//end my_upgrade_function()
