As Warren Buffett's legendary stint as the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) (BRK.B) concluded with the end of 2025, an era drew to a close. The one who made value investing cool, the Oracle of Omaha, developed a cult-like following across the investing world over his six decades at the helm of the erstwhile textile company. It is now a diversified conglomerate spanning industries as varied as tech, retail, finance, and utilities. Notably, this timely and varied set of investments led Buffett, ably supported by Charlie Munger, to deliver a CAGR of 20% over 60 years, double that of the S&P 500's ($SPX) CAGR of 10% in the same period.

Surprisingly, considering his aversion to tech stocks for the longest time, two of the three names belong to that sector (and no, it's not Apple), while the other one is a Buffett classic.
