- Warren Buffett remains cautious about BTC despite its growing popularity and economic value.
- Berkshire Hathaway cut its stake in Apple while adjusting other holdings during recent market fluctuations.
- Investors await details on Buffett’s latest moves, which may drastically impact his monetary approach going forward.
Warren Buffett is reducing his share ownership as the economic climate changes around him. The famous investor recently confirmed his lingering suspicion about Bitcoin and other digital assets. At the annual Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meeting, he restated his views on these digital assets and noted how his investment decisions receive noteworthy attention.
Buffett made an interesting comparison between Bitcoin and more traditional assets during his speech. He said that if someone owned all the bitcoins in the world and offered them to him for $25, he would not take that deal. This statement makes it clear that he remains reluctant to invest in the token.

BTC is currently trading at $68,418, marking a decline of 1.66% over the past day. This downturn has also impacted its overall capitalization, which now stands at $1.35 trillion. The latest data from CoinMarketCap indicates a notable reduction in trading volume, dropping by 39.07% in the last 24 hours. This reduction brings the trading volume's entire value down to $24.51 B.
Buffett’s Investment Method
The firm has shown impressive growth since 1965. The company has recorded compound annual gains of 19.8%, which surpasses the S&P 500's 10.2 %. His approach is quite straightforward because he focuses on massive, secure enterprises with solid balance sheets and attractive valuations.
In his letter to shareholders dated February 24, 2024, he noted that Berkshire profits from unusual constancy and clarity of purpose. He often maintains a majority of his net worth in U.S.-based equities, which reflects his confidence in the American economy and its chances for sustained growth.
Recent Portfolio Adjustments
In the second quarter of 2024, Buffett made some major changes to his assets. Berkshire nearly halved its stake in Apple, which is still one of the firm’s main resources. Furthermore, Berkshire cut its position in Chevron and exited stakes in Paramount Global and Snowflake.
Investors are eagerly awaiting details about Buffett’s activities in the third quarter. A legislative report known as the 13F is due in mid-November, and this document will reveal his most recent buys and sells. Additionally, his firm sold Bank of America one of its largest positions in the third period, and this tendency appears to continue into the fourth month.
