(Reuters) – Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:) Inc on Monday said it has begun investing in Capital One Financial Corp (NYSE:) and no longer has a stake in Bank of New York Mellon (NYSE:) Corp.

Capital One shares rose 5.3% in after-hours trading, following Berkshire’s disclosure of an approximately $954 million stake in the bank.
