Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway says it repurchased $5.1 billion of its own stock during Q2.

as the coronavirus pandemic dented operations for Warren Buffett's conglomerate.

Berkshire Class A and Class B shares plunged more than 19% in the first quarter and lagged the S&P 500 during the second quarter with declines of more than 1%. Berkshire's investments in public markets gained $34.5 billion in the quarter. That gain caused overall second-quarter net earnings to surge to $26.3 billion, up from $14.1 billion a year ago. However, unrealized gains from investments quarter to quarter are volatile and Buffett himself warns investors not to focus on that overall net earnings figure.
