Thoughts Why Warren Buffett Sold Delta & Southwest Stock?

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/04/03/warren-buffetts-b…

Seems like a strange move to me...I thought he should know better and buy more when others are fearful (especially with a $160BN+ cash stockpile at Berkshire Hathaway). Why do you guys think he sold? Tax loss harvesting? Portfolio rebalancing?
