Buffett Legacy Shapes Berkshire Portfolio Under New Leader

Warren Buffett's legacy continues to shape Berkshire Hathaway's investment strategy. Despite stepping down as CEO, his approach remains intact under new leader Greg Abel. The 'Oracle of Omaha' has long favored a concentrated portfolio with long-term holdings.

The four Dow Jones Industrial companies making up 50% of the fund's total holdings are American Express, Apple, Chevron, and Coca-Cola. These stalwarts have delivered consistent returns for Berkshire Hathaway investors over the years.

Apple anchors the portfolio at 21%, despite a recent sale of 10 million shares in the fourth quarter. The tech giant offers a small dividend of 0.31% but has seen a surge in sales over the past two years.
