Chevron $CVX (+0.7%) has moved into Berkshire Hathaway's top 4 positions. The stock price is up 30% this year due to rising oil prices, but BH's position has quintupled as Buffett has bought more.

Berkshire Hathaway has increased its stake in Activision Blizzard $ATVI as part of a merger arbitrage strategy. With a Microsoft takeover on the table, BH is looking to capitalize on it, as Microsoft is offering more per share than $ATVI currently traded, with the difference being the control premium. BH now owns about 9.5% of the $ATVI -shares


๐ŸŸฉ $ATVI Activision Blizzard Inc, $77.74 (๐Ÿ”ผ+2.83%)*

Despite its growing acceptance in the traditional finance and investment world in recent years, Buffett has increased his skepticism about the cryptocurrency Bitcoin $BTC (+0.79%) even more so. He believes that he would buy all the Bitcoins in the world for not even $25, as he does not consider Bitcoin to be a "productive asset."

I honestly admit that I (52) do not understand anything about BTC etc., have not dealt with it so far but will in the future. When I look at WB, a lot older than me, BTC is newfangled and not physically tangible stuff etc. for him. The clock is ticking, he thinks very carefully about what he wastes his time with so BTC is irrelevant to him and not worth an investment, Apple understood et too late ๐Ÿ˜‚. When he is no longer with us, the attitude at Berkshire may change, positively or negatively, we will see. Conclusion: accept his opinion and do what you feel comfortable with.
