Subject: Re: Berkshire's stock price
"There are a few opportunities I've been left scratching my head over in recent times, he could've loaded up on Alphabet at sub 100 he could've bought Meta at scale in the 100's, they seemed like two obvious examples to me. Two I purchased (no bias) yet he was buying HPQ etc."

I am not commenting on the rightness or wrongness of those purchases/non-purchases, but I am willing to bet the reason Buffett made the decisions he made at those times had a lot to do with how the share counts of those companies were growing or shrinking at that time. Buffett likes to see his stake in a company grow (or at least stay stable), he doesn't like to see his stake in a company get diluted due to an ever increasing share count.
