Berkshire Hathaway’s Record $277 Billion Cash Reserve Amid Massive Stock Sales
04.08.2024 9:00 1 min. read Alexander Stefanov
Investment giant Berkshire Hathaway is currently holding a historic $277 billion in cash amid economic uncertainties.
The firm, led by Warren Buffett, reported net stock sales of $75.5 billion in the second quarter, pushing its total stock sales in 2024 past $90 billion.
Notably, Berkshire significantly reduced its Apple holdings by nearly half during this period.
In recent moves, Berkshire also cut its stake in Bank of America, selling $769 million worth of shares over 12 days.
At the May annual meeting, Buffett discussed the firm’s cash reserves and market conditions, emphasizing a cautious investment approach: “We’re ready to invest, but only in opportunities that offer minimal risk and high returns. It’s not a matter of urgency, but of finding the right prospects.”
Berkshire’s operating earnings for the second quarter rose to $11.6 billion, compared to $10 billion the previous year.
