Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway speeds up stock buybacks
Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc has stepped up its pace of stock buybacks, repurchasing more than $1.8 billion of its own stock this year. In its proxy filing on Friday, Berkshire said that as of March 8 it had the equivalent of 1,455,698 Class A shares outstanding, down 4,035 from year end and 2,537 from Feb. 13, reflecting the repurchases. Berkshire’s repurchases have also included Class B shares, which normally cost about 1/1500th as much as Class A shares.
