巴菲特:伯克希爾持蘋果股票超180億美元

Warren Buffett has revealed that Berkshire Hathaway’s stake in Apple is twice as large as previously disclosed at more than $18bn but said that the iPhone maker’s share price is now so high that it is no longer an attractive investment.

沃倫?巴菲特(Warren Buffett)透露，目前伯克希爾哈撒韋公司(Berkshire Hathaway)持有蘋果(Apple)股票爲上一次披露時的兩倍，價值超過180億美元。但他表示，目前這家iPhone製造商的股價這麼高，已不再是有吸引力的投資對象。

In a television interview to mark the release of his latest annual letter to Berkshire shareholders, Mr Buffett said that he had personally bought more than $8bn of Apple shares in January.

在就剛剛發佈的年度致伯克希爾股東信接受電視採訪時，巴菲特表示，他親自在1月份購買了逾80億美元的蘋果股票。

Berkshire had $7bn of its $122bn equity portfolio invested in Apple at the end of 2016 after almost a year of incremental purchases, according to Mr Buffett’s letter, but the extra purchases more than doubled the stake to 133m shares. Berkshire is now one of Apple’s top five shareholders, with a stake worth $18.2bn.

根據巴菲特的致股東信，經過近一年的增持之後，在2016年底，伯克希爾1220億美元股票投資組合中的蘋果股票超過了70億美元，但今年1月額外購買的部分讓其所持蘋果股票數量增加了逾一倍，達1.33億股。伯克希爾現爲蘋果五大股東之一，所持蘋果股票價值182億美元。
