SEC filings suggest Berkshire Hathaway significantly increased share repurchases in the second quarter of 2026. CEO Greg Abel led the conglomerate to an estimated $11 billion in buybacks. This total would set a new quarterly record for the company.
Analysts interpret the aggressive buyback as a bullish signal. Management likely views the stock as undervalued after shares remained flat through the first half of 2026. The decision follows a recent increase in the value of the company's equity portfolio.
