Buffett's Berkshire Slashes Stock Holdings
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway did a lot of selling this spring.
Most notably, it reduced its holdings of Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) by almost 19 million shares as of June 30.
That's a drop of 64 percent compared to its holdings just three months before.
The shares that were sold are worth almost $1.3 billion at the stock's current price.
In another large cut, Berkshire reduced its holdings of Procter & Gamble (PG) by 19 percent, or about $910 million.
Kraft Foods (KFT) was also cut dramatically, with a 25 percent reduction worth $784 million.
Some other big names were also targeted, although the dollar amounts aren't as big.
Berkshire eliminated its 7.745 million share stake in Intel (INTC), worth over $204 million.
Also cut: General Electric (GE). That stake was reduced by 36 percent to just over 5 million shares, a drop of about $58 million.
It wasn't all selling.
Berkshire added a stake now worth about $1 billion in Phillips 66 (PSX).
National Oil Well Varco (NOV) is another addition. That holding is worth almost $216 million.
