Headline you haven't seen, yet:
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. purchased an additional ~$100 million (1.1%) of SiriusXM in 3Q'24.
How do we know?
Today $BRK.B filed a Form 13G reporting a 31.01% ownership of $SIRI.
The table below shows the math that this is ~1.1% higher than expected based on previous disclosures.
How come it wasn't reported before and why isn't this a headline?
$BRK.A likely purchased additional $SIRI shares prior to the merger closing on 9 September.
Because Berkshire owned <5% of total (old) SIRI shares, it was not required to report its activity.
If it had bought more LSXMK or LSXMA shares, it would have had to report its activity within 3 days, and the same rule likely applies to (new) SIRI today.
Only folks expecting to see 29.9% ownership of $SIRI would have been surprised to see 31.01% and done some math to find the discrepancy.
“To a disciple who was forever complaining about others, the Master said, ‘If it is peace you want, seek to change yourself, not other people. It is easier to protect your feet with slippers than to carpet the whole of the earth.’”

David Goggins sees what’s at stake, and unlike too many others, refuses to give the mob one inch in the Joe Rogan attack.
This is an agenda. No one is really offended by those podcasts.
Never bow down.
In 1665, Cambridge University closed b/c of the plague. Issac Newton quarantined himself at his childhood home. It was the most productive time of his life. He discovered the calculus & laws of motion. Stuck a bodkin in his eye to study optics. How will you spend the next year?
As markets tank & lives are lost, tell me about any upside you‘re experiencing?

We're thinking this has to be some sort of record for Strava CR bagging... T8's Veronika Vadovicova scorched the KOTH Lantau Full Marathon (35km, 2,000m D+) field yesterday with 27 crowns! Oh, and she also finished third overall, missing the MEN's CR by 10 minutes. #T8run#KOTH

How is your business thinking about the Chinese traveller/student/customer?
