Here are Top 5 Stock Holdings in Warren Buffett's Portfolio

Warren Buffett caught attention after Berkshire Hathaway revealed that it sold nearly half of its stake in Apple last quarter. 

Here's where the legendary investor's largest holdings stand now

Apple                         $84.2 billion

Bank of America      $37 billion

Chevron                    $18.6 billion

Coca-Cola                 $25.5 billion

American Express   $35.1 billion

About 72% of Berkshire's stock portfolio is concentrated in 5 stocks, according to the company's most recent earnings report. 

Apple, despite massive selling by Warren Buffett, remains Berkshire's largest holding by far with a market value of $84.2 billion at the end of June.

The company recently began selling some shares of Bank of America, its second-largest holding after Apple, in a 12-day selling series that began in July. Transactions in the third quarter were not included in Berkshire Hathaway's 10th-quarter report issued on Saturday, so the value of Bank of America's stake should now be about $37 billion, down from $41.1 billion at the end of June, according to CNBC.

Berkshire trimmed its bet on Chevron slightly in the second quarter, and its stake in the energy company was worth $18.6 billion at the end of June, remaining among the company's top five holdings.

Meanwhile, Berkshire maintained its long bets on Coca-Cola and American Express, worth $25.5 billion and $35.1 billion, respectively, at the end of the second quarter.

Coca-Cola shares have risen more than 17% this year, while American Express shares have risen 24%. Stocks have outperformed the S&P 500 so far in 2024.

Buffett was in a generally selling mood in the second quarter as Berkshire offloaded more than $75 billion worth of stock, bringing its total cash level to $277 billion. After sales, these holdings remain the same as the top 5 holdings Berkshire disclosed in the first quarter.
