Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has been a net seller of stocks for six straight quarters despite the recent disclosure of a headline-making purchase of a stake in insurer Chubb . In fact, Berkshire hasn't been a net buyer of stocks since the third quarter of 2022, according to an analysis of filings. The bulk of the first quarter selling came from trimming Berkshire's massive Apple bet by 13% after reaping enormous gains. "If I saw one of those now, I'd do it for Berkshire," Buffett told shareholders, referring to his Japanese investment. Berkshire's cash hoard reached a record $189 billion in the first quarter, up from almost $168 billion in the fourth quarter.

Warren Buffett walks the floor ahead of the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting in Omaha, Nebraska on May 3, 2024. I've written about personal finance and investing for 11 years, which means I've spent just about the same amount of time covering legendary investor Warren Buffett. Along with tens of thousands of investors, I traveled to Omaha, Nebraska, in early May to attend the annual shareholders meeting of Berkshire Hathaway, the company Buffett helms. I was meeting Clark for lunch. The whales and the wannabes come to Omaha to be seen, Clark told me over lunch, but also to get a peek into Buffett's world.

Berkshire Hathaway is sitting on a record pile of cash at $189 billion. Putting Berkshire's cash pile into perspectiveInstead of measuring Berkshire Hathaway's cash position on an absolute basis, investors are better off measuring the cash pile as a percentage of Berkshire's total assets, according to Bloomstran. Berkshire Hathaway's $189 billion cash is actually at a pretty normalized level, and well below its peak of nearly 40% in 2004. At the time, the S&P 500 was trading near record highs, Apple was the biggest company in the world, and Berkshire Hathaway's absolute cash pile was at a record. with regards to Berkshire's cash pile at this year's annual shareholder meeting, the legendary investor responded:Advertisement"We only swing at pitches we like."

Warren Buffett's purchase of a 6.4% stake in Chubb makes perfect sense as the insurer checks all the boxes of the Oracle of Omaha's investment criteria, according to Deutsche Bank. "We believe that Chubb is an ideal fit for Warren Buffett's investment philosophy, characterized by high-quality business with strong [returns on equity], a robust economic moat, a proven track record of compounding returns, and a distinguished management team," Deutsche Bank analyst Cave Montazeri wrote in a note to clients. Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway unveiled a $6.7 billion stake in Zurich-based Chubb in a new regulatory filing, ending months of speculation over the identity of the secret stock pick. Deutsche Bank said Chubb has a disciplined approach to underwriting and capital allocation and, in the near term, should benefit from earned pricing above loss costs, strong investment income and growth in its international operations. CB ALL mountain Chubb Deutsche Bank has a buy rating on Chubb and a 12-month price target of $278, implying a 10% gain from Wednesday's close of $252.97.

Avoid pushing for a promotion when you're not ready yetGetting a promotion when you're not quite ready may negatively impact yourself and your career trajectory. A good way to see if you're ready is to think about how you would feel if you were promoted tomorrow.

This year, Social Security beneficiaries saw a 3.2% increase to their benefits. The Social Security cost-of-living adjustment may also be 3.2% in 2025 based on the latest government inflation data, estimates Mary Johnson, an independent Social Security and Medicare policy analyst. That estimate may change between now and October, when the Social Security Administration announces next year's cost-of-living adjustment, or COLA. The average Social Security COLA has been 2.6% over the past 20 years, according to The Senior Citizens League. Many households tend to cut back on savings and increase withdrawals to try to lift themselves to where they were before inflation picked up.
