Greg Abel Made Major Additions to Alphabet and Delta Last Quarter While Berkshire Bought Back $4.4 Billion of Its Own Stock. Is This a Buying Signal Investors Should Watch?

Berkshire Hathaway, led by Greg Abel, increased investments in Alphabet and Delta Air Lines, and repurchased $4.5 billion of its own stock in Q2.
