Buffett!
Money. Warren Buffett has some.
Berkshire Hathaway's mountainous cash pile grew for a ninth consecutive quarter in Q3, amid ongoing stock sales.
Quarterly "earnings" from Berkshire released on Saturday showed the conglomerate's cash stash swelled by more than $46 billion last quarter.
As a reminder, Berkshire cashed in (or cashed out, depending on how you want to look at it) to the tune of nearly $88 billion in Q2, when Buffett aggressively trimmed his stake in Apple.

I wonder if what we are seeing is the beginning of the end- as in BRK will sell its’ holdings and ultimately pay a big cash dividend?
Th-th-th-that’s all folks!

I found the title humorous in that when I read it, I thought of Seinfeld yelling “Newman!” Looking forward to reading the monthly. While not in paper it is something many of us pore over on our devices.
Monthly’s coming. This NFP / ECI / GDP/ mega-tech earnings / Election / FOMC two-week whirlwind kinda backburned it, but it’s mostly done. I just have to grab 5 or 6 hours to finish it and proof read it.
