☆ Ajit Jain, Buffett's insurance leader for nearly 40 years, dumps more than half of Berkshire stake
  + stars: | 2024-09-12 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Ajit Jain, Warren's Buffett's insurance chief and top executive, sold more than half of his stake in Berkshire Hathaway , a new regulatory filing showed. The 73-year-old vice chairman of insurance operations dumped 200 shares of Berkshire Class A shares on Monday at an average price of $695,418 per share for roughly $139 million. That left him holding just 61 shares, while family trusts established by himself and his spouse for the benefit of his descendants hold 55 shares and his nonprofit corporation, the Jain Foundation, owns 50 shares. Monday's sale represented 55% of his total stake in Berkshire. "This appears to be a signal that Ajit views Berkshire as being fully valued," said David Kass, a finance professor at the University of Maryland's Robert H. Smith School of Business.

☆ Warren Buffett's Berkshire keeps new stock pick secret — again. Here's what it means
  + stars: | 2024-02-18 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
A new stock pick from the 93-year-old Buffett almost always leads some investors to follow suit, quickly moving the share price. Berkshire has been a longtime shareholder in credit rating agency Moody's , and bought a big stake in Citigroup in early 2022. The last financial stock Berkshire bought was Capital One Financial in the first quarter of 2023. If the new stake ever exceeds 5% of whatever stock it is, Berkshire would be required to report its holding with the SEC. Buffett might be asked to reveal the identity of the mystery stock at Berkshire's annual shareholder meeting in early May.

☆ Warren Buffett, who turns 93, is at the top of his game as he pushes Berkshire Hathaway to new heights
  + stars: | 2023-08-30 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Berkshire shares have roared back to an all-time high on record operating profit, making it the biggest non-tech company by market capitalization. Warren Buffett took control of Berkshire Hathaway in 1965, and nearly six decades later as the "Oracle of Omaha" turned 93 Wednesday, his conglomerate is stronger today than it's ever been. Buffett likens the iPhone maker to a consumer products company and has said he is also attracted to its big buyback programs. "It's groundbreaking in the sense that I'm not aware of any prominent investor, hedge manager investing in Japan," Kass said. They touched on every top-of-mind topic for investors from the banking crisis to recession risks and even crypto.

☆ Warren Buffett’s must-read annual letter arrives Saturday. Here’s what to expect from the investing legend
  + stars: | 2023-02-24 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
Andrew Harnik | APWarren Buffett's loyal following of value investors is about to hear from the legend himself, at a crucial time when interest rates have soared and recession fears are raging. He believed that when interest rates are high, it could be a major "gravitational pull" on values. "We have a roughly 15-year period of abnormally and historically low interest rates. "Interest rates are the main determinant of equity prices, to quote Buffett, so I think I'm looking for and expecting a discussion on interest rates." "Private equity and others who are thinking of making acquisitions would have to go into the market to borrow [at] higher interest rates.
☆ Warren Buffett's 91st year marked by a huge focus on Berkshire Hathaway's energy empire
  + stars: | 2022-08-30 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
Warren Buffett turns 92 on Tuesday, having spent the past year expanding further his Berkshire Hathaway energy empire, making a classic value investor's bet. Plus, many energy stocks have found themselves with torrents of cash flow since the economy reopened following Covid lockdowns. "All of this just sounds like the perfect Berkshire Hathaway stock." If Berkshire continues to ramp up its Occidental investments and makes the position a controlling one, it probably reflects the influence of Greg Abel, Buffett's likely successor who has been leading the conglomerate's energy unit Berkshire Hathaway Energy. Berkshire acquired MidAmerican Energy in 1999, and Abel became CEO of MidAmerican Energy in 2008, six years before it was renamed Berkshire Hathaway Energy in 2014.
