Did Warren Buffett Buy BUD? What if he did not!


Back in April, it is widely reported by media that Warren Buffett bought the stocks of Anheuser-Busch (BUD, Financial). These reports are based on a news release by Anheuser-Busch entitled “ Anheuser-Busch Welcomes Berkshire Hathaway As A Shareholder”. Anheuser-Busch (BUD) announced Berkshire Hathaway (BRK-A)“has become a significant shareholder” of Anheuser-Busch, and “Anheuser-Busch welcomes Berkshire Hathaway as a shareholder.


Who will not? On the day this news was released, Anheuser-Busch’s stock shot up by 6.4% and closed $48.04, although it has set back to $41.8 as of today.
