The Abel Era Takes Shape
Friday's filing offers the clearest window yet into what Berkshire Hathaway looks like under Greg Abel's stewardship β and the picture that emerges is one of purposeful evolution rather than wholesale revolution. The conglomerate's largest and most iconic holdings remain intact: Apple, American Express, Coca-Cola, Bank of America, and Chevron continue to anchor the portfolio, and are generally understood to be Abel's positions.
But the edges of the portfolio are being redrawn with confidence. Alphabet tripled. Delta re-entered. Visa and Mastercard exited. Amazon sold. The New York Times doubled.
Berkshire also continues to own dozens of operating businesses spanning the breadth of the American economy β from the BNSF railroad and Geico car insurance to energy and manufacturing operations and consumer brands including Brooks running shoes, Dairy Queen, Fruit of the Loom, and See's Candies.
The empire Buffett built is intact. The man now flying it is making clear, quarter by quarter, that he intends to chart his own course.
