Warren Buffett’s profits from a 2015 investment in Axalta Coating Systems Ltd. have been fading.
Axalta, the maker of paint for autos, plunged 7.9 percent Thursday in New York to $29.25. That compares with the $28 price that Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. agreed to pay two years ago for 20 million shares, for a total of $560 million. His Omaha, Nebraska-based company acquired the stock from affiliates of Carlyle Group LP.
