BRK equity Purchases near 50B since Ann. letter

Warren - Just showed a slide to the audience indicating amount of purchases. He’s been busy.

Cash on hand is down to 102B

I believe some of those purchases happened before the letter was released but also before they were public. I think that because he went out of his way to make sure we understood parts of the annual letter were written throughout the year.

$41 Billion of the gross equity purchases where made from Feb 21st → March 15th. Peak day of purchases was March 4th ($4.6 Billion worth in one day - Go Mark Millard!)

Buffett just said they bought a little more of Apple stocks in the 1Q.

Yep. Amazing.

Looks like approximately 3.6 million additional Apple shares - if purchased near the lows of the quarter it would be a bit over $500 million worth.

New share ownership of AAPL would be approximately 911.173 million shares (up from 907,559,761 at year end)
