Berkshire Hathaway Inc files 13F-HR

Berkshire Hathaway Inc. is set to file its 13F-HR report later this week, sparking speculation about Warren Buffett's latest secret stock purchase. The 13F-HR report, submitted by institutional investors with at least $100 million in assets under management, provides detailed information about a company's equity holdings and recent stock positions [2].

Warren Buffett has been known for his secret stock purchases, which he often keeps confidential until they are disclosed in the 13F-HR filings. Previous mystery stocks have included Chubb, a global property and casualty insurance company [1]. The latest speculation suggests that Buffett may have invested in a stock from the commercial, industrial, or other sector, as the company's first and second-quarter filings indicate a significant increase in the cost basis of a third category of investments [2].

Several potential candidates have been suggested, including UPS, FedEx, and Caterpillar. However, the exact identity of the mystery stock remains uncertain. Berkshire Hathaway has requested confidential treatment for a stock purchased in the first quarter, which could delay the disclosure of the secret stock for a longer period [2].

The potential impact of the secret stock disclosure on Berkshire Hathaway's stock price and overall investment strategy remains to be seen. Investors are closely watching the company's 13F-HR filings to gain insight into Buffett's latest investment decisions and the potential implications for the company's future performance.
