# Big Investors, Including Warren Buffett, Trim 'Magnificent Seven' Stakes in Q4

Major investors are starting to pull back from some of the market's biggest technology winners. Recent 13-F filings show several hedge funds and large institutions reduced holdings in "Magnificent Seven" companies — including Nvidia (NVDA), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), and Alphabet (GOOGL) — during the fourth quarter of 2025, mainly after a sharp AI-driven rally pushed valuations higher and raised questions about how quickly heavy AI spending will turn into profits.

## **Tiger Global Trims Key AI Positions**

Tiger Global, a large U.S.-based hedge fund, reduced its Microsoft holding to 5.47 million shares from 6.5 million shares. Even after the cut, the stake is still worth about $2.6 billion and remains one of its largest positions.

It also:

-   cut its Amazon stake by roughly 9% to about 10 million shares (around $2.3 billion)
-   trimmed its Nvidia position, now valued near $2.1 billion

## **Adage Capital Trims Big Tech, Increases Oracle Bet**

Meanwhile, hedge fund Adage Capital made smaller reductions of roughly 1%–3% in its holdings of Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, and Nvidia.

However, the fund increased investment elsewhere in the AI ecosystem. It boosted its stake in Oracle (ORCL) by about 19% to nearly 1.87 million shares, valued at roughly $365 million.

Several large investors made similar adjustments. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) continued to trim its stakes in Apple and sold a large portion of its Amazon stake. Meanwhile, the fund opened a new position in The New York Times Co.'s (NYT) stock in the fourth quarter of 2025 just before the shares rallied to an all-time high.

Separately, SoftBank disclosed it had sold its Nvidia stake earlier to raise cash for further investment in OpenAI.

## **Which Magnificent 7 Stock Is the Better Buy?**

Now, let's see how Wall Street analysts are weighing in on the above-mentioned names. Analysts think that Microsoft stock has the most room to run. In fact, Microsoft's average price target of $593.38 per share implies 49.5% upside potential.
