Berkshire sold 15% AAPL and bought in GOOG after Warren Buffett released his retirement letter. His official retirement day is Dec 31st 2025, so now he is still the CEO of Berkshire. Market believes that this decision is made by Abel, the on-coming CEO rather than Buffett, the incumbent CEO. What is the greatest regret of Buffett? He said he was not so hot in AI stocks and had not bought in GOOG at early stage. He treated AAPL as a hardware stock (telecommunication).
Please refer to The Express on 20251114 for his total positions holding now. Few AI stocks except AMZN. All his holding are traditional stocks for he had held decades ago. He also met his Waterloo, just like UNH and OXY. So how can people do the copy trade?
Copy trade is no use at all. He got loss in OXY and UNH, but people still consider he is The Greatest Investor. Anyway, if Berkshire is also placing focus in AI, that means it is not a bubble. Just like Mars Landing is competition of several decades and not as the Apollo Moon Landing which gave up 3 years later after first landing because of no competitors. The Artemis Project of Mars would need a lot of chips and AI. But the largest demand is still on earth. That is AI walking into daily life and out of laboratories and factories.
The current retreat is much welcomed and should considered as healthy adjustment. Basic and fundamental conditions had no changes. Formerly, it was because AI stocks were over estimated and over bought. So, does it mean the current selling is over sold? It depends on the result announcement of NVDA, the King of kings. Watch carefully, ALL EARS and ALL EYES on it.
