Warren Buffett has enough firepower to do a $160 billion deal this year AP Images Berkshire Hathaway has never had this much cash, so naturally people have wide-ranging ideas for how the Warren Buffett -led juggernaut may use it. UBS, for one, thinks the company should make a splashy acquisition — one that could exceed a whopping $160 billion. The bank arrives at that figure by factoring in the record $109 billion of cash Berkshire has on hand and combining it with the company's strong free cash flow. As for which industry Berkshire may pursue, UBS thinks utilities are a good bet. After all, the company's energy unit made an unsuccessful $9 billion offer for the electricity provider Oncor last year and may still be interested in the sector. There is, however, one possible impediment, which is that equities are trading at historically high valuations as indexes keep breaking record highs, UBS says. The firm notes that this could make some potential targets prohibitively expensive.
