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

Despite its growing acceptance in the traditional finance and investment world in recent years, Buffett has increased his skepticism about the cryptocurrency Bitcoin $BTC (-0.53%) 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."
