I haven't checked my figures, but I think Berkshire's after tax proceeds from the Apple sale were around $169/share.
Current price of $177 and change is getting down close to that.

A move that looked foolhardy to some observers when Apple was trading briefly at $260 doesn't look particularly silly now.

only held a few shares which i sold this morning for ~179 (if i had waited 15 or 20 minutes i could have sold for > 190 when the rumor hit the wires that the White House was considering a 90-day pause on tariffs.) : >)

anyway, figured with the pe ~29 still and all of the potential sand in the vaseline from tarrifs & supply chains, better to get out while still in the green.

i think that when the dust finally settles, appl will continue to do well but we'll see what happens.

best,

mike
