The market is waiting for him to jump back in......update, he's selling shares.😮
Feels like basically everything has gone wrong for WB since that HBO doc
nickchodge Makes sense
He has had them since the 1980's.
😳
Do as I do not as I say. Companies that need bailouts are usually not good investments, GM and Chrysler both had their equity go to 0. He didn’t sell it all so hopefully he doesn’t sell more and foresee further declines. buffett airlines markets
This article is so misleading it makes it seem like they are dumping the stock because the price dropped when really they are trimming to keep ownership at less than 10%
Warren and the Gateses are disgusting, their foundation and financial org’s avoid tax payments by making donations to for-profit business they have stocks in, wtf wrong with the IRS?
He will rebuy. Just waiting for it to go lower
hblodget Yawn.
He's about to short, no brainer and re-buy when it starts recovering
hblodget Windfall?!
It’s been said of the market, “It takes the escalator up. And elevator down.” Airlines will take a very long time to recover. To recover losses, all kinds of charges will be passed on to flyers.” It’ll be a very interesting 2 years after we recover from COVID19. If we do.
ericjackson At least. I think that’s just what he had to disclose for filing purposes
ericjackson Maybe he bought Exxon at 29
ericjackson $60 BILLION DOLLARS? Who do they think they are, Chelsea Clinton?
hblodget Typo in there $60 million not billion
He's giving it AWAY ANYWAYS with the gates foundation!!!!
$5 Billion haircut
hblodget This is who we're bailing out when we bailout the airlines, the world's 3rd richest person. We're saving his equity stake. (He still owns most of his shares. He may just be raising money for a bigger acquisition.)
No confidence
Same
Good 4 him
