The very surprising share that Warren Buffet bought in the autumn – sends the share price soaring

Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway has made new investments in Domino’s Pizza and a pool supply company this fall.

The announcement of the measures came in an application on Thursday afternoon and led to the share prices in both companies rising. Domino’s rose by as much as 8 percent.

Berkshire held 1.28 million shares in the pizza chain for a stake of about $549 million at the end of September.

The Omaha-based conglomerate also bought 404,000 shares of Pool Corp., a distributor of swimming pool supplies, which were worth about $152 million on that date.

The filing also confirmed that Berkshire had sold more shares in Apple and Bank of America.

As with all large institutional investors – such as hedge funds and banks – Berkshire must disclose each quarter what it has bought and sold.

Rivals and smaller retail investors who manage their 401(K)s are watching Buffett’s moves closely for clues on where to invest.

Shares often rise after Berkshire reveals new investments, as investors believe Buffett is giving a stamp of approval.

In addition to announcing where Berkshire has made new investments, it also said it had sold its entire stake in Ulta Beauty.

While Domino’s shares rose, Ulta fell 2.5 percent.

Buffett’s latest move comes after Berkshire’s sale of tens of billions of Apple and Bank of America shares spooked some investors.

Wall Street is pouring money into stocks as the market soars to new highs in the wake of Donald Trump’s re-election.

But Buffett, America’s most iconic investor, is taking a very different path – which is a red flag for many.

He recently sold tens of billions of dollars worth of stock from two of his longtime favorites, Apple and Bank of America.

That shift has boosted Berkshire Hathaway’s cash reserves to a record $325 billion — enough to buy all but the top 25 U.S. companies.

Simply put, Buffett is raising money instead of diving into the record-breaking rally.

For a seasoned investor known to hold stocks ‘forever’, this cautious approach has raised eyebrows.

Experts say this could mean one of three things.

Buffett could be cautious about stock market crashes.

He may believe that stock prices will stagnate while cash provides a safer return, or he may wait patiently to make a major acquisition when the timing and value are right.

“What we really want to do is buy great companies,” he noted at Berkshire’s 2023 annual meeting.

While Buffett couldn’t buy Amazon, he could grab Disney, Pfizer or AT&T.
