Berkshire adds $136 million of Lennar; Cevian takes a Pearson board seat

Berkshire adds $136 million of Lennar; Cevian takes a Pearson board seat

A filing-by-filing guide to this week's executed buying and selling, a $500 million block sale, a 19.4% stake that took a board seat, and the ownership maps filed between September 22 and September 28.

The disclosure window runs from September 22, 2026 at 8:00 a.m. through September 29, 2026 at 8:00 a.m. (UTC-05:00). Every filing below became publicly available inside that window. Each entry keeps two dates apart: the availability date says when the market could first read the disclosure, and the underlying date says when the purchase, sale, or measurement actually happened.
What separates a signal worth following from background is the kind of evidence a filing carries. An executed trade at a price anyone could have paid is the strongest record a filing can hold, and it comes with both a share count and a dollar figure. A position declared without a transaction table says only who holds what, on a stated date. A stake that arrives through an initial public offering allotment, a block agreed with a single seller, or a quarterly distribution in kind carries a price the parties set between themselves.

Berkshire buys Lennar again, and this time it pays up

Berkshire Hathaway bought 1,679,700 Lennar shares over September 23, 24 and 25, and the Form 4 shows every fill. On September 23 it bought 532,993 Class A shares at $81.65 and 1,263 Class B shares at $79.99. On September 24 it added 399,238 Class A shares at $80.58 and 241,692 at $81.44, with 9,415 Class B shares at $79.42 and 2,975 at $79.91. On September 25 it took 313,379 Class A shares at $80.90 and 171,723 at $81.60, plus 7,022 Class B shares at $79.53. 1
Weighting those fills by size puts the average at $81.1962 a share and the total at about $136.4 million. The position is now 25,378,134 Class A shares and 548,892 Class B shares, 25,927,026 in all. 1
The same buyer paid a weighted average of $77.4168 for its Lennar shares a week earlier, and the highest price in that earlier batch was $79.41. 26 This week's cheapest fill was $79.42, so Berkshire kept buying after the stock had moved through its previous ceiling.
Follow-up: the next Form 4, and whether a fourth session appears above $81.

Buying done inside the window

Conifer Management bought Group 1 Automotive stock again and came away with a board seat.
