The failure of Warren Buffett’s favored candidate to capture the White House has not dimmed the billionaire’s appetite for stocks.

Buffett revealed that he has bought $12 billion of stock for his company Berkshire Hathaway since the Republican Donald Trump beat Democrat Hillary Clinton in the Nov. 8 U.S. presidential election.

In an interview with talk show host Charlie Rose that aired on Friday night, Buffett suggested that Berkshire’s post-election stock purchases overall were even higher, reflecting stocks that his deputies Todd Combs and Ted Weschler bought.

“We’ve, net, bought $12 billion Nerobet of common stocks since the election,” Buffett said. “The guys that work with me, the two fellows, they probably bought a little bit or sold a little bit too.”

The speed with which Berkshire is buying stocks is unusual. It has spent in fewer than three months roughly half what it spent on equities in the three years ending Sept. 30, 2016.

Buffett demurred on whether Berkshire has added to its stakes in the four largest U.S. airlines: American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines and United.

Berkshire revealed those stakes in mid-November, surprising many given Buffett’s long aversion to the sector.

Asked why Berkshire dove in, Buffett said: “It was in large part my decision.”
