Berkshire Buys Big Into Alphabet | Business and Finance News

from Business & Finance News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Berkshire Hathaway just flipped its script—after 14 straight quarters of selling stocks, it’s now a net buyer, pouring nearly $20 billion into Alphabet, Google’s parent company, in a bold bet on AI. The $10 billion private purchase in June fueled this move, as Alphabet ramps up its AI infrastructure. With Buffett and Abel backing the play, Berkshire is re-deploying its massive cash pile—from $397.4 billion to $365.5 billion—through strategic buys, share repurchases, and even the Taylor Morrison acquisition. This isn’t just cash sitting idle anymore—it’s capital actively chasing the future. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
