What's Going On With Bank of America Shares?
Berkshire Hathaway's large-scale sale might signal to the market that a major investor lacks confidence in Bank of America's future performance, potentially leading other investors to sell their shares as well.Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC) shares are trading slightly lower at $38.65 this week, through Wednesday morning, after Berkshire Hathaway recently sold off over $550 million worth of Bank of America shares, averaging $39.50 per share.
美国银行股（NYSE:BAC）本周通过周三早上以每股38.65美元稍微下降交易，此前伯克希尔·哈撒韦公司出售了价值超过5500万美元的美国银行股票，平均每股39.50美元。
What Else: This sale reduces Berkshire's holding to about 928 million shares, worth around $37 billion, or roughly 12% of the company's total shares. Additionally, if Berkshire's stake falls below 10%, it would no longer be required to disclose share sales within two days.
其他：这次出售将伯克希尔的持股数量减少到约9280万股，价值约370亿美元，占公司总股本的约12%。此外，如果伯克希尔的持股比例下降到10%以下，将不再需要在两天内披露股票销售情况。
This divestment is part of a broader trend where Berkshire has reduced its investments in banks, such as Wells Fargo and Bank of New York Mellon, and it now only holds a small stake in Citigroup.
这种出售是伯克希尔减少在银行业务上投资的更大趋势的一部分，例如在富国银行和纽约梅隆银行的减持，现在它只持有花旗集团的小部分股份。

伯克希尔·哈撒韦的大规模出售可能向市场传递出一位主要投资者对美国银行未来业绩缺乏信心的信号，可能导致其他投资者也抛售股票。

尽管确切的原因尚不清楚，但这次出售也可能表明伯克希尔认为该股票被高估，或者美国银行的财务状况或前景存在潜在问题，引发了投资者的担忧。
