The conglomerate accelerated stock buybacks, repurchasing $4.5 billion in April-June and an additional $3.3 billion in July, totaling $7.8 billion in repurchases. Berkshire also increased stock investments, adding $10 billion to its Alphabet stake, now its largest holding. Cash reserves fell to $364.7 billion from $380.2 billion in March, as the company reduced its cash stake and invested in equities. Net income more than doubled to $25.67 billion, including unrealized gains and losses on holdings.
