Warren Buffet BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Warren Buffett has once again proven he’s the embodiment of patience and pragmatism in investing circles, and the headlines have been buzzing with news of his latest strategic moves. Just this week, 24/7 Wall Street highlighted a key warning flashing from the so-called Warren Buffett Indicator, which now suggests U.S. equity valuations are looking stretched. Yet amid these market jitters, Buffett’s four highest-yielding stocks are now drawing attention for their perceived safety, further cementing his reputation as a steward of capital in uncertain times.
Over at Berkshire Hathaway, perhaps the biggest business news was the complete exit from the investment in Chinese electric vehicle giant BYD. According to Kingswell’s Berkshire Beat and backed by CNBC, Berkshire Hathaway Energy’s latest quarterly earnings report indicates that after a 17-year relationship, Buffett made an orderly and profitable exit in early 2025. It’s reported that BYD shares rose nearly 3,900 percent during Berkshire’s ownership. The BYD camp brushed off any negative implications, with company executives expressing gratitude for Buffett’s long-term vote of confidence—even as Berkshire quietly heads for the door.
Japan is also feeling Buffett’s touch: Berkshire Hathaway just informed trading conglomerate Mitsui that it has crossed the eye-catching threshold of owning more than 10 percent of the company’s voting rights, with Mitsui acknowledging that Berkshire may buy even more shares in the future. The press—and the Tokyo market—are watching for further disclosures on the extent of this stake.
Turning to Berkshire’s own shifting stock portfolio, NerdWallet and SEC filings show Buffett has made new bets on UnitedHealth Group, Nucor, Lennar, D.R. Horton, Lamar Advertising, and Allegion. Meanwhile, he’s trimmed or exited investments in Bank of America, DaVita, Apple, Formula One Group, Charter Communications, and T-Mobile, with the last divested entirely. Apple remains Berkshire’s largest public holding but saw a notable seven percent cut last quarter.
Despite all this activity, the market’s been fickle: AInvest reports that Berkshire’s overall stock dipped just under one percent to $500.03 as of mid-September, lagging the S&P 500’s gains. Analyst chatter, however, is focused less on headline-grabbing volatility and more on the magnitude of Berkshire’s legacy—its $307 billion portfolio, blue-chip holdings, and Buffett’s perennial knack for picking winners, even as operating earnings are expected to dip 18 percent this quarter.
No major social media stunners or personal public appearances from Buffett himself in the past few days, but his investment moves and warnings—not to mention Mitsui’s surprise—are fueling nonstop coverage across financial outlets and investor circles. While no rumors or unconfirmed stories are circulating at the moment, all reporting signals that, at 95, the Oracle of Omaha remains the defining voice in global investment strategy.
