Alphabet rises to Berkshire Hathaway’s third-largest holding at about $36.6 billion in Q2 filing

AI Market Summary
Berkshire's Q2 13F shows a major increase in Alphabet, lifting it to the third-largest equity holding (~$36.6B), largely driven by a $10B private placement plus additional open-market buying. The filing underscores Berkshire's continued rotation away from financials (large cuts to Capital One and ongoing Bank of America reductions) while adding selective exposure to airlines and housing. Near-term, flows may influence large-cap tech and financial sentiment.
