Berkshire bought 1,277,256 shares of the global pizza delivery chain, which were worth $550 million at the end of the quarter. Domino's shares soared on the news after hours on Thursday, which is typical when Buffett's company buys a new stock. Domino's finished the after-hours session up 7.8%.

Berkshire Hathaway initiated these new positions during the third quarter even as it cut back its holdings of big names like Apple and Bank of America.
