Berkshire Hathaway Inc. bought stock in Domino’s Pizza Inc. and Pool Corp. during the third quarter as Chairman Warren Buffett cut back on some long-held investments. Shares of the two new holdings jumped in late New York trading.

The founder of the Omaha, Nebraska-based conglomerate acquired about 1.3 million shares in the pizza retailer, giving Berkshire a 3.6% stake valued about $550 million, the company said in a regulatory filing Thursday.
