Buffett's possible motive for significantly reducing his holdings in Verisign in the third quarter of 2025: 3. Verisign Q3 reduction amount: $1.2 billion Background: Berkshire Hathaway began investing in VRSN in 2012 at a cost of approximately $40 per share; in Q4 of 2024, they added to their position at around $200 per share. Motive: The price of VRSN shares had once soared to $266.93, nearing its historical high. This reduction in holdings is likely to prevent the ownership percentage from exceeding 10% - crossing this threshold would trigger additional regulatory disclosures and compliance obligations. This move demonstrates Buffett's precise control over the "passive investment boundary."
