Berkshire invests in Capital One, sheds four stocks

Berkshire Hathaway has revealed its latest investments in a regulatory filing, cutting exposure to equities as it devoted more resources elsewhere. The financial services giant exited investments in Bank of New York Mellon, Taiwanese chip manufacturer TSMC, US Bancorp and furniture chain RH. However, it also revealed a new $41.3m stake in Diageo and an investment in Capital One Financial, which led shares of the bank to rise 5.7% in after-hours trading. The company ended March with $130.6bn in cash and equivalents.
