Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) Has Nearly $400 Billion in Cash Reserves

Warren Buffett transitioned CEO responsibilities for Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A, BRK.B) to Greg Abel in 2026, entrusting him with approximately $400 billion in cash. By the close of Q2, this cash reserve decreased to about $365 billion. Abel made a notable acquisition of Taylor Morrison Home for roughly $8.5 billion, along with a $17 billion increase in investment in Alphabet (GOOG). Abel's plan to unify company operations marks a shift from Buffett's manager approach, potentially improving Berkshire's financial performance and offering targeted deal-making opportunities for investors.
