Feb 14 (Reuters) - Berkshire Hathaway  BRKa.N  on
Wednesday said it has shed three of its common stock holdings,
as the conglomerate controlled by Warren Buffett remained silent
on what could be a major new investment.
    In a regulatory filing describing its U.S.-listed stock
holdings, Berkshire said it no longer owned shares of insurer
Globe Life  GL.N , insurance and investment company Markel
 MKL.N  and Brazilian credit card processor StoneCo  STNE.O  at
the end of 2023, shedding stakes it held three months earlier.
    For a second straight quarter, Omaha, Nebraska-based
Berkshire also obtained permission from the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission to temporarily keep one or more of its
holdings confidential.
