Markets were surprised when Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) disclosed a stake in HP Inc. (HPQ) in April 2022, as Warren Buffett typically shies away from tech companies. While Apple (AAPL) is the largest holding for the conglomerate, the “Oracle of Omaha” sees it as a consumer company rather than a tech company.
At its peak, Berkshire was the biggest shareholder of HP, holding an over 11% stake. However, the conglomerate started selling its shares last year, and completely exited the company in Q1 2024.
