Berkshire Hathaway, under the leadership of&nbsp;Warren Buffett, has amplified its investments in&nbsp;Domino&#8217;s Pizza Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DPZ#NYSE">DPZ</a>),&nbsp;Pool Corporation&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/POOL#NASDAQ">POOL</a>), and&nbsp;Constellation Brands, Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>).
What Happened: According to the recent 13F filings, Berkshire&#8217;s investment in Pool Corp escalated from approximately&nbsp;$152 million to $204 million.&nbsp;Its stake in Domino&#8217;s Pizza also witnessed a substantial surge from nearly $549 million to $1 billion. Furthermore,&nbsp;Berkshire initiated a significant stake&nbsp;in Constellation Brands, estimated at around $1.2 billion.
Investment experts speculate that these investment choices were probably made by Todd Combs or Ted Weschler, who manage smaller investment portfolios at Berkshire Hathaway, reports <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/02/15/warren-buffett-berkshire-hathaway-stocks-pool-dominos-ulta-beer-wine/">the </a>Fortune. Currently, the company holds a cash reserve&nbsp;valued at more than $300&nbsp;billion.
During the same period, Berkshire retained&nbsp;its $75 billion stake in&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) while reducing its stakes in&nbsp;Bank of America Corporation&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>),&nbsp;Citigroup Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), and&nbsp;Capital One Financial Corporation&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>).

Interestingly, Berkshire completely divested its stake in&nbsp;Ulta Beauty Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ULTA#NASDAQ">ULTA</a>). The company&#8217;s annual letter to shareholders, which usually sheds light on its investment decisions, is due later this month.
Why It Matters: Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s recent investment decisions indicate a strategic shift towards companies that have demonstrated resilience and growth potential amidst market volatility. 
The significant increase in stakes in Domino&#8217;s Pizza, Pool Corp, and the initiation of a substantial stake in Constellation Brands, underscores Berkshire&#8217;s confidence in these companies&#8217; future performance. 
The divestment from Ulta Beauty and the trimming of stakes in several major banks suggest a cautious approach towards sectors that may face headwinds in the current economic climate.

Berkshire Hathaway's 13F Filing Suggests a Buffett-Style Bash — Pizza, Beer and Fine Wine

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a government agency created to protect people from unfair financial practices, has been largely shut down by acting chief Russell Vought. Many crypto leaders, like Coinbase Global (COIN) CEO Brian Armstrong and Gemini CEO Tyler Winklevoss, are very happy about this decision.
Armstrong <a href="https://x.com/brian_armstrong/status/1888385895163953554">called</a> the shutdown "100% the right call," labeling the CFPB an "activist organization that has done enormous harm to the country." He argued that fraud prevention should be handled by the Department of Justice and other financial regulators, not the CFPB. Winklevoss <a href="https://x.com/tyler/status/1888461425703555209">posted</a> "CFPB Unplugged" alongside an image of a 404 error page from the agency's website.

</ul>
The shutdown comes after years of tension between the CFPB and financial institutions, including crypto exchanges. Coinbase, for example, has faced more CFPB complaints than any other U.S. crypto platform, with more than&nbsp; <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/data-research/consumer-complaints/search/?chartType=line&amp;dateInterval=Month&amp;dateRange=All&amp;date_received_max=2025-02-11&amp;date_received_min=2011-12-01&amp;lens=Product&amp;searchField=all&amp;searchText=coinbase&amp;subLens=sub_product&amp;tab=Trends">7,747 grievances</a> related to poor customer service, restricted accounts, and lost funds.
Vought, who also leads the Office of Management and Budget, told CFPB workers to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/02/43637114/regulatory-freeze-at-cfpb-these-etfs-could-gain-as-oversight-weakens">stop all investigations</a>. He also <a href="https://x.com/russvought/status/1888423503537360986">said</a> the agency wouldn't ask for more funding because it already had $711.6 million, as Musk <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1889005419273638392">called</a> for the return of that money to taxpayers.
While tech and crypto leaders are happy, others are upset. Some say shutting down the CFPB helps billionaires and leaves regular people at risk. BuccoCapital Bloke, a finance commentator, accused billionaires of dismantling the agency for personal gain, arguing that &#8220;It is not a coincidence that every single one of the tech billionaires trying to destroy the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has a lot to gain from a less informed, less protected consumer,&#8221; he wrote on X.

The shutdown also benefits companies facing ongoing investigations, such as JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) and Wells Fargo (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>), which were recently accused of failing to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/12/42687945/zelle-became-a-gold-mine-for-fraudsters-consumer-financial-protection-bureau-lawsuit">protect Zelle users from fraud</a>. Other firms like Honda Finance and Jack Dorsey's Block (Cash App) were also under scrutiny for misleading practices.
Elon Musk, who has been at the forefrunt of cutting regulatory agencies since President Donald Trump took office again, celebrated the shutdown with a simple <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1887979940269666769">post</a>: "CFPB RIP." Musk, who is developing a digital wallet through X, has a vested interest in reducing financial oversight.

Critics like Salon&#8217;s Amanda Marcotte highlighted the cultural angle, accusing Musk and other tech billionaires of using sexism to undermine the CFPB by associating it with Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), its key architect. She warned that without the CFPB, scams will continue, and companies will be free to cheat people.
Former CFPB director Rohit Chopra said in an <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/former-cfpb-director-says-trump-begging-for-another-financial-crisis-by-closing-agency">interview</a> with PBS News Hour that &#8220;defunding this type of oversight is just begging for another financial crisis, and it&#8217;s a complete giveaway to many of these big tech companies who increasingly want to become a bank.&#8221;

'It Has Done Enormous Harm To The Country'—Crypto Leaders Celebrate As CFPB Is Shut Down

Warren Buffett&#8216;s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) made significant adjustments to its portfolio in Q4 2024, reducing its investment in a number of stocks. However, its stake in Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) remains unchanged, as revealed in the recent 13F filings.
What Happened:&nbsp;Berkshire Hathaway has continued to offload its shares in&nbsp;Bank of America Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), one of its largest holdings. The company also downsized its stake in&nbsp;Citigroup Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>) and sold a portion of its investment in&nbsp;Capital One Financial Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>).
In addition, Berkshire Hathaway announced a new $1.2 billion position in&nbsp;Constellation Brands, Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>), a U.S. seller of Modelo and Corona beer, and divested&nbsp;its shares of Ulta Beauty.
According to the report <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/stocks/buffetts-berkshire-holds-on-to-apple-shares-but-trims-stakes-in-bofa-citi-and-capital-one-b9efdb12">by </a>Wall Street Journal, despite ongoing speculation, Berkshire Hathaway did not sell any of its 300 million Apple shares, which were valued at $75.1 billion as of December 31, 2024.
The regulatory filing also indicated that Berkshire increased its investments in Domino&#8217;s Pizza and Pool Corp., which it had previously disclosed three months ago.

Investors are eagerly awaiting Buffett&#8217;s annual letter, set to be released on February 22, for insights into these recent trading decisions.
Why It Matters: The recent changes in Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s portfolio reflect the company&#8217;s strategic investment decisions. The continued investment in Apple, despite the sale of other tech stocks, suggests confidence in the tech giant&#8217;s performance. 
The reduction in financial stocks could indicate a shift in Berkshire&#8217;s investment strategy, possibly due to changing market conditions or a reassessment of the financial sector&#8217;s future prospects. The new stake in Constellation Brands and increased positions in Domino&#8217;s Pizza and Pool Corp. highlight Berkshire&#8217;s interest in diversifying its portfolio. 
The upcoming annual letter from Buffett will likely provide further clarity on these decisions.

Berkshire Hathaway Adjusts Portfolio, Keeps Apple Stake Unchanged, Offloads Stakes in BofA

Berkshire Hathaway Cuts Share Stake In Nu Holdings By 53.5% To 40.2M Class A Ordinary Shares; Berkshire Hathaway Cuts Share Stake In Capital One Financial By 18.1% To 7.5M Shares

Over the weekend, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau&#8217;s (CFPB) operations were unexpectedly suspended. This followed DOGE lead Elon Musk&#8217;s apparent call for the agency&#8217;s dissolution in an X post on Saturday, where he wrote &#8220;CFPB RIP.&#8221; The decision is expected to benefit financial firms facing ongoing enforcement actions.
What Happened: Shortly after Musk&#8217;s post, the CFPB&#8217;s acting director, Russell Vought, who also recently became the Director of the United States Office of Management and Budget, took action.
Vought halted all pending CFPB investigations and supervisory activities. He then informed the Federal Reserve that the CFPB would not be requesting its next round of funding, citing the agency&#8217;s current $711.6 million balance as &#8220;excessive in the current fiscal environment.&#8221;

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Companies With Recent Enforcement Actions By CFPB</h3>

Looking At Capital One Finl's Recent Unusual Options Activity

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Monday ordered a halt to the majority of work at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau after being selected as the acting director of the agency by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43450076/trump-administration-weighs-plan-to-shut-down-education-department-which-stocks-could-be-affected">President Donald Trump. </a>
The Details: According to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/bessent-takes-helm-of-consumer-finance-watchdog-orders-halt-to-work-0a9cfc3d?mod=hp_lead_pos3">a report</a> from the Wall Street Journal, Bessent directed the CFPB to freeze much of its work in an internal email. The work stoppage includes decisions about active litigations, enforcement actions and suspends effective dates for completed rules that are not yet in effect.
Bessent is the temporary replacement for Biden appointee Rohit Chopra who was ousted from the agency on Friday.&nbsp;

"I look forward to working with the CFPB to advance President Trump's agenda to lower costs for the American people and accelerate economic growth," Bessent said in a written statement Monday.
It is expected that Bessent will begin to roll back many of the regulations that were enacted under the Biden administration, including limits on overdraft fees and the exemption of medical debt reporting by credit agencies. 
CFPB Actions In Limbo: Many lawsuits brought by the CFPB now face an uncertain future as decisions on litigations and enforcement actions have been frozen.&nbsp;

What Happened: The digital banking and payment services provider achieved a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43148923/discover-delivers-q4-earnings-beat-revenue-beat-the-details">41% growth in net income </a>year over year.
"Despite a modest slowdown in US card sales, overall network volume increased driven by growth in our Pulse business, demonstrating the strength of our payments network," the interim CEO Michael Shepherd <a href="https://investorrelations.discover.com/newsroom/press-releases/default.aspx">said</a> in the earnings call.
Among the streamlining efforts, Shepherd highlighted:
<ul>
<li>$4.5 billion in income stemmed from loan growth, deposit expansion, and an improved net interest margin. </li>
<li>Total loans increased by 3% despite the sale of the student loan portfolio.</li>
<li>Personal loans grew 5% year over year.</li>
</ul>
The results underscore a strong consumer demand for credit, backed by a stable labor market and wage growth outpacing inflation. However, CFO John Greene noted a 3% contraction in Discover card sales, which he attributes to credit-tightening actions going as far as 2022.

Why It Matters: Despite this modest slowdown in card sales, the broader trends suggest stability and potential recovery. Payment rates, though slightly down sequentially, remain about 90 basis points above pre-pandemic levels, showing that consumers are still effectively managing their financial obligations.
In a note, Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods analysts pointed to the net-interest-margin-driven pre-provision net revenue and highlighted credit quality. They maintained the $232 price target, deriving it from applying the 16x multiple to the 2026 EPS estimate of $14.5. This price target is approximately 15% above today's closing price of $201.20
Last month, Capital One (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>) announced the approval of the Office of the Delaware State Bank Commissioner regarding the DFS acquisition. Pending satisfaction of the remaining closing conditions, the all-stock transaction is expected to close early in 2025.
Although the proposed merger drew criticism, particularly from Sen. Elizabeth Waren (D-MA) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Shepherd remains undeterred that creating the largest domestic credit card operator is the best course of action.
"We continue to firmly believe that merger will advance our company&#8217;s shared mission to help our customers meet their financial goals, support the communities in which we operate, and create value for our shareholders," he noted.

If You Invested $100 In This Stock 5 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>) reported decent results <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43135162/capital-one-posts-q4-earnings-beat-analysts-weigh-in-on-discover-acquisition" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">for the fourth quarter</a>. The company reported its quarterly results amid an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">exciting earnings season</a>. 
Goldman Sachs analyst Ryan M. Nash is optimistic about future performance of Capital One Financial despite slight post-market share decline.
They see stabilizing credit metrics, decreasing losses, and a continued downward trend in allowances as positive signs.
The DFS deal is expected to increase EPS power to over $22, with no major <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/02/37204534/capital-one-set-to-acquire-discover-in-landmark-35-3b-deal">efficiency risks despite compliance investments.</a>
Capital One Financial&#8217;s strong CET1 ratio positions it to return significant capital in the future.
With shares currently trading at just over 10x 2026E EPS, the analyst sees a potential upside as the market gains confidence in the company&#8217;s earnings and network scalability.
Once these factors are fully recognized, the analyst expects significant upside potential for the shares.

Fifth Third Bancorp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FITB#NASDAQ">FITB</a>) reported a solid fourth quarter PPNR beat as stronger than expected fees drove the beat while expenses and NII were in-line.
Per Nash, the beat on fees was driven by strength in commercial banking and capital markets (under new disclosures), as the three-pronged fee strategy (wealth, payments, and capital markets) continues to deliver strong results.
The analyst is optimistic about Fifth Third&#8217;s fundamentals, citing record net interest income in 2025, improved loan growth, and margin expansion. Fee income growth is also a strength, and with a CET1 ratio of 10.5%, FITB is well-positioned for capital returns.
Nash notes that shares are trading at a slight premium to peers, but the analyst sees the company to maintain or even widen that premium if it continues executing well and driving positive operating leverage while investing for growth.

Capital One And Fifth Third Bancorp's Capital Strength And Growth Prospects; Analyst Sees Upside

Tech stocks enjoyed a surge Wednesday, driven by a sharp rise in semiconductor shares after President Donald Trump, OpenAI's Sam Altman, Oracle Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) co-founder Larry Ellison, and SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son unveiled the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/01/43135764/trumps-500-billion-stargate-ai-plan-puts-3-etfs-in-focus">Stargate Project on Tuesday</a>.
The $500 billion initiative is set to develop AI infrastructure in the U.S. over the next four years.
According to OpenAI, &#8220;this infrastructure will secure American leadership in AI, create hundreds of thousands of American jobs, and generate massive economic benefit for the entire world.&#8221;
The iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) was up 2.3% by midday trading in New York, eyeing their fourth straight positive session, the longest streak since late September. 
Yet, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)&#8217;s CEO Elon Musk questioned the financial viability, saying that founders &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43121798/elon-musk-says-project-stargate-doesnt-actually-have-the-money-after-trump-announces-500-billion-ai-investment-led-by-softbank-oracle-and-openai">don't actually have the money</a>.&#8221;

The earnings season continues to be off to a strong start, with companies surpassing fourth-quarter expectations, showcasing the resilience of corporate America. Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) delivered a stronger-than-expected quarterly performance across the board, driving its shares up 12%.
Elsewhere, small caps paused for a breather following Tuesday&#8217;s outperformance vis-à-vis large-cap counterparts. 
Chinese stocks slipped, with the iShares China Large-Cap ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FXI#NYSE">FXI</a>) down 0.8%, after Trump floated the idea of imposing a 10% tariff on China starting from Feb. 1.
In commodities, gold prices surged to an 11-week-high, marking their tenth gain in the past eleven sessions, as investors flocked to safe-haven assets amid rising geopolitical risks.
On Wednesday, Trump warned Russian President Vladimir Putin of potential new sanctions if a peace deal for Ukraine is not reached. Meanwhile, oil prices remained flat after three consecutive sessions of losses.
In the crypto market, selling pressure is mounting as traders react to the absence of crypto-related commentary from the new administration, which had previously positioned itself as crypto-friendly. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) retreated nearly 2% to $104,000.

米国の消費者は、連邦政府のデータによれば、確かに商品やサービスを支払うために<a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/g19/current/default.htm">クレジットカードを利用し始めている</a>ことが分かった。
連邦準備制度が月曜日に公開した<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-08/us-consumer-borrowing-rises-most-in-three-months-on-credit-cards?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">データ</a>によると、5月にはクレジットカードの未払い残高が113億ドル増加して約5.07兆ドルに達し、4月の118億ドルの増加幅を上回った。
経済学者によるブルームバーグの調査の中央値の予測値は、5月には89億ドルの増加になると予想していたが、これはインフレには調整されていない。
関連記事: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">Mastercard Looks To Fight Cyber Threats: What&#8217;s Going On With Credit Card Company&#8217;s Shares Thursday?</a>
クレジットカードも含むリボルビング債務は、5月に70億ドル増加して、連邦準備制度のデータによれば約1.35兆ドルに達した。5月のクレジットカードの未払い残高の増加は、4月に貸し借りが9億ドル減少した状況を覆した。
ブルームバーグの<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">報告</a>によると、米国人は新型コロナウイルスの感染拡大による節約から離れ、生活コストが上昇しているため、今後もクレジットカードでの支払いが増えるだろう。
レポートには、クレジットカードの金利が5月には22.76％に上昇している、という事実も明らかになった。これは今年の第1四半期の22.63％からの上昇だ。レポートには3月と4月の金利についての情報は掲載されていない。
株価動向: 月曜日の連邦準備制度の報告に対し、クレジットカードの発行会社は複数の反応を見せた。 Visa Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>)は1.46％下落して266.40ドルとなり、一方でMasterCard Inc.(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>)は0.72％下落して446.24ドルになった。
JPモルガン・チェース(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>)は0.22％上昇して205.17ドルで終えた。その一方で、American Express Company(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>)は0.47％下げて234.51ドル、Citigroup Inc.(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>)は1.09％上昇して64.74ドルとなった。Capital One Financial Corporation(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>)は0.14％減少して135.81ドルに落ちた。
