Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway just filed its Q1 2025 13F — and while he’s still holding Apple tight, there were major shifts under the hood.
Here’s what The Oracle of Omaha did this quarter:
🔻 Trimming the Financials
Buffett continues to distance himself from bank stocks.
Sold Entirely:
-
🏦 Citigroup (C): 14.6M shares gone
-
🏦 Nu Holdings (NU): 40M shares exited
Trimmed Down:
-
🏦 Bank of America (BAC): -48.6M shares
-
🏦 Capital One (COF): -300K shares
This marks a clear move away from financials — potentially reflecting concern over consumer credit, rising delinquencies, or narrow margins.
📦 Loading Up on Brands & Energy
Buffett rotated hard into consumer staples, leisure, and energy names:
Increased Stakes:
-
🍷 Constellation Brands (STZ): +113% to 12M shares
-
🍕 Domino’s Pizza (DPZ): +240K shares
-
🏊♂️ Pool Corp (POOL): +145%
-
🛢️ Occidental Petroleum (OXY): Continued to buy
These are strong brands with pricing power — classic Buffett.
🍏 Holding Apple Steady
No surprise here: Apple (AAPL) remains untouched.
-
300M shares
-
Valued at ~$66.6B
-
Still Berkshire’s #1 holding
🕵️♂️ Secret Buys
Berkshire filed for confidential treatment on new holdings, which likely means Buffett (or Ted/Todd) is building a major position.
Estimates peg this mystery stake between $1–$2B.
💰 Cash Is Still King
Buffett now has a record $348B in cash.
That’s dry powder if markets crack or deals emerge.
