According to BlockBeats, Warren Buffett has acquired nearly 5% of the U.S. Treasury market through Berkshire Hathaway, securing $300.87 billion in short-term Treasury securities. This acquisition represents 4.89% of the total U.S. Treasury market, which amounted to $6.15 trillion as of the end of March 2025. Essentially, for every $20 in circulating Treasury securities, $1 is owned by Buffett.
The data, derived from Berkshire Hathaway's latest financial disclosures, underscores Buffett's commitment to safety and liquidity. The U.S. Treasury's Monthly Statement of the Public Debt confirms the total market size, providing the basis for the 4.89% calculation.
Buffett's holdings in U.S. Treasuries now surpass those of the Federal Reserve, which currently holds slightly over $195 billion in Treasury securities.
