The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

It is possible that Buffet BAC sales will be more like Boyd. A short period of heavy sales and then nothing for months?

I keep hoping that at some lower price that Buffet will stop selling.

I still have 60% of my peak BAC position. I have been selling covered calls since Buffet started selling to blunt the decline.

From a buyback perspective the selling pressure is good news.



Once BRK's ownership passes below 10% (we are at 12.39% as of 7/29), Warren will have privacy on any selling until quarterly disclosures roll around. So it may seem like he stopped - out of sight, out of mind - but we won't really know what he is up to until the highly delayed quarterly disclosures and Annual Reports come out.

If he stops before hitting 10% (which I feel is very unlikely), we would be able to see that.

Like someone here mentioned - Warren is not typically a "trim around the edges of a position" guy - but we don't know the reasons he is selling.

He doesn't strike me as a big stock market Bull at the moment.
