Berkshire Hathaway Inc (BRK.B)

It looks like Buffett / Berkshire are getting closer to being net buyers of stocks again (see below). 2024 was the big net selling year, but so far this year they are only slightly net negative. Buffett hasn't been buying back Berkshire shares either (for 3 quarters), but to do share buybacks he reportedly likes to see the Price / Book ratio under 1.2, but it's currently 1.69 (as of Mar 31).
