Under the leadership of new CEO Greg Abel, Berkshire Hathaway continued to sell stocks in the first quarter, increasing its cash reserves to $397 billion. Meanwhile, the company did not deploy its substantial cash reserves to invest in the volatile market. As Berkshire has been reducing its stock holdings for over three consecutive years, its cash reserves have remained a key focus for investors. Berkshire disclosed that it sold $24 billion in stocks while purchasing $15.9 billion, extending its streak of net stock sales to 14 consecutive quarters. This marks the largest quarterly stock sale from its $288 billion stock portfolio since 2024, when the company significantly reduced its holdings in Apple. (Jin10)
