Repost: On February 15th, Berkshire Hathaway disclosed its Q4 2025 holdings list (13F).
The most shocking change is—
After holding Alphabet for just one quarter and achieving close to 50%+ returns, they completely liquidated their position!
According to related reports, the small test position in Alphabet (only $4.3 billion, less than 2% of total assets) was a decision made by the company's investment manager, Todd Combs.
This position was an independent decision made under his purview, without the instruction or approval of the "Oracle of Omaha."
In December 2025, after Todd Combs left Berkshire Hathaway, the company promptly liquidated the Alphabet position.
There is no public explanation yet for why Todd left, but one thing is certain: in the post-Buffett era, the new CEO Greg remains a staunch believer in Buffettism.
This is evident from the latest holdings; the post-Buffett era Berkshire Hathaway is even more Buffett-like!
