Berkshire Hathaway Triples Alphabet Stake in Aggressive Portfolio Overhaul!
The "Abel Era" at Berkshire Hathaway is starting with a massive tech bang! According to the newly released Q1 2026 regulatory 13F filing, the conglomerate has more than tripled its position in Google's parent company, Alphabet.
Here is what you need to know about this massive market move:
> The Massive Buy-In: Berkshire increased its Alphabet holdings by a staggering 224%, jumping from 17.8 million shares to nearly 58 million shares.
> The Valuation: The massive tech position is now valued at approximately $17 billion, cementing it as the 7th largest holding in Berkshire's portfolio.
> A New Direction: This aggressive tech play comes under new CEO Greg Abel, who took the helm from Warren Buffett at the start of the year. Historically, Buffett avoided big tech outside of $AAPL , but the new management is showing immense confidence in Alphabet’s AI infrastructure and cloud capabilities.
> The Great Purge: To fund these strategic shifts, Berkshire aggressively cleaned house—completely exiting its positions in traditional giants like Amazon ($AMZN ), Visa ($V), and Mastercard ($MA).
With traditional finance powerhouses doubling down on AI-driven tech giants, the correlation between massive web2 data infrastructure and the evolution of web3 and decentralized data networks has never been clearer.
