Warren Buffett’s company has fallen to a US$44bn (£36bn) loss after sharp falls in stock markets took their toll on the legendary investor’s portfolio.
Berkshire Hathaway recorded the US$43.8bn loss in the three months to June, down from a profit of US$28.1bn last year.
Its stock portfolio fell in value to US$328bn, down from US$391bn at the end of March. Three of its major holdings – Apple, Bank of America and American Express – each fell more than 21pc.
However, the company's shares have outperformed the broader US market so far this year, falling 2pc compared with a 13pc drop in the S&P 500.
