Here's What Charlie Munger-Run Daily Journal's Portfolio Looked Like In Q2

Charlie Munger, the vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. (NYSE: BRK-A) (NYSE: BRK-B) and Warren Buffett’s trusted lieutenant, on Friday disclosed the holdings of his publishing company Daily Journal’s second-quarter portfolio.

The billionaire’s second-quarter holdings remained unchanged, in terms of the number of shares, from the first quarter. Given the stock gyrations, the value of holdings underwent some changes.

Munger’s Daily Journal held 300,000 shares of Alibaba Holdings Limited BABA, valued at $34.1 million, at the end of the second quarter. In the first quarter, the firm reduced its Alibaba stake by half.

Alibaba shares turned around in the quarter, with the stock advancing about 4.5% in the second quarter, even as most of the U.S. tech stocks chalked up losses for the same period. Alibaba’s stock bottomed at $73.28 in mid-March.

The improvement seen in sentiment toward the Chinese e-commerce giant reflects hopes that the regulatory crackdown on high-profile domestic tech companies would ease.
