Warren Buffett closed his last quarter as CEO of $BRK.B (+1,39%) yesterday - and there was a real surprise:
New York Times $NYT (+0,69%)
- First time investor with 5+ million shares (~$352 million)
- This from a man who sold all newspapers in 2020 and declared the industry "dead"
- The difference? NYT has 12.78m digital subscriptions - digital business model instead of print
📈 UPDATED:
- Chevron $CVX (+0,9%) - further increased to 130+ million shares
- Domino's Pizza $DPZ (+1,98%) - Additional purchases
- Chubb $CB (+1,77%) & Lamar Advertising $LAMR (+1,82%) - increased
📉 MASSIVELY REDUCED:
- Apple $AAPL (+1,32%) -10.3m shares sold (~$2.7bn) - 3rd sale in a row
- Amazon $AMZN (-4,64%) -77% (!!) - from 10m to only 2.3m shares
- Bank of America $BAC (+0,82%) -50.8m shares, stake now below 7%
🏆 TOP 5 HOLDINGS (weighting 31.12.2025):
1. Apple $AAPL (+1,32%) - 22,60%
2. American Express $AXP (+0,3%) - 20,46%
3. Bank of America $BAC (+0,82%) - 10,38%
4. coca-cola $KO (+2,93%) - 10,20%
5. chevron $CVX (+0,9%) - 7,24%
✅ Continuity: No fundamental change in strategy despite handover to Greg Abel (CEO from 1.1.2026)
✅ Dividend focus: Chevron, Coca-Cola, AmEx remain core → sustainable dividend growth stocks
✅ Quality over quantity: focus on companies with "economic moats" and pricing power
✅ Valuation discipline: large sell-offs in Apple/Amazon indicate profit-taking and risk management
So the motto remains: stable dividends, moderate growth rates, defensive quality.
