Bill Gates Foundation has stunned markets by drastically reducing its stake in Microsoft by almost 65% in the third quarter of 2025. As per new 13F data, the foundation has dumped 17,000,000 shares of Microsoft, equivalent to 64.91% reduction. According to reports, the average selling point of Microsoft shares during Q3, 2025 was $510.13, resulting in a total cash inflow of approximately $8.7 billion for the trust. The move caused a 17.7% drop in the portfolio’s value, leading to concerns since Microsoft has always been the foundation’s main and most reliable investment.
In addition to Microsoft, Gates Foundation has also trimmed its Berkshire Hathaway shares. The foundation has sold 2,358,460 shares at an average $484.36 price. This led to an overall reduction of -9.78% Berkshire Hathaway stock reduction and a -2.4% portfolio impact.Also, the foundation fully exited the Crown Castle. It sold all its 1,420,072 shares for a -0.31% impact and liquidated all 755,089 UPS shares for a -0.16% impact.Gates Foundation – Top 10 Holdings (Q3 2025)

Gates Foundation also sold United Parcel Service Inc’s all 755,089 shares, causing a -0.16% impact on the portfolio.The decision by the Gates Foundation to sell Microsoft shares has immediately reduced the trust’s overall portfolio value by 17.7%, triggering concern because Microsoft has long been the foundation’s most important and stable investment. Even with the recent sale, Microsoft shares remain up 21.7% this year, despite a minor dip over the past three months.
While some experts worry that Gates Foundation reducing its Microsoft shares may signal caution about tech valuation, others say the dramatic reduction appears to be a strategic rebalancing rather than a loss of confidence in Microsoft. The trust has historically held a highly concentrated portfolio, with nearly 67% of its assets tied to just three companies. Reducing the Microsoft stake helps ease that concentration risk while funding future philanthropic commitments.Despite the shake-up, the foundation continues to hold billions in Microsoft stock, signalling that the long-standing relationship remains firmly intact.The foundation trust—valued around $49 billion—must raise substantial capital to support expanding global programmes, making the sale of high-value Microsoft shares a straightforward source of liquidity.
The move comes as Bill Gates continues his long-term commitment to donate nearly all his wealth. Gates, whose net worth is estimated at about $106 billion, has previously pledged to give away 99% of his fortune by 2045. Speaking at the African Union (AU) headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia earlier this year, Gates said: “I recently made a commitment that my wealth will be given away over the next 20 years. The majority of that funding will be spent on helping you address challenges here in Africa.”

Pakistan secured a comprehensive 3-0 ODI series victory against Sri Lanka, winning the final match on November 16 by six wickets. The triumph was particularly special as it coincided with Pakistan A’s win over India A in the Asia Cup Rising Stars 2025 tournament.Later, in the post-match presentation, Pakistan’s ODI captain Shaheen Afridi also went on to laud Pakistan A’s victory against the neighbours.
The Pakistani team successfully pursued Sri Lanka’s modest total of 211 runs in under 45 overs. The bowling attack was led by Mohammad Wasim Jr., who captured three wickets, while captain Shaheen Afridi contributed with one wicket.“Winning the series 3-0, always happy. Like I said during the 1st game, everyone has been confident. They have been in good touch since the South Africa series. All the 15 players should be ready for any game. The rotation policy is good for us,” the skipper said.“Credit goes to him. He was sitting on the bench but still worked. He played domestic cricket as well, bowled well to him. They are wicket-takers. The way Wasim Jr came back after injury. They are both match-winners for the team.”In a parallel development, Pakistan Shaheens demonstrated their cricketing acumen by defeating India A in Doha. The team successfully chased down 137 runs, winning by 8 wickets with 40 balls remaining.“Pakistan Shaheens won against our neighbours, so that’s a big achievement for us,” Shaheen Afridi added.The India A innings featured notable performances from Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who scored 45 runs off 28 balls, and Naman Dhir, contributing 35 runs from 20 deliveries. However, their middle order struggled against Pakistan’s bowlers Shahid Aziz and Saad Masood.Maaz Sadaqat emerged as the hero for Pakistan Shaheens, scoring a match-winning 79 runs from 47 balls.
