Warren Buffett invests 309 billion: Farewell to Apple and BAC!

Warren Buffett, the 95-year-old CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, recently made an investment decision that is making waves in the financial world. In a recent 13F filing, it was revealed that Buffett has invested a total of $308.94 billion in 46 different stocks. This comes amid a major shift in his career, as Buffett plans to step down from his position at the end of the year.

A notable part of his current strategy is the continued reduction of his stakes in Apple Inc. (AAPL) and Bank of America (BAC). In the third quarter of 2025, Buffett sold 41.8 million shares of Apple, reducing his total holdings to 238.2 million shares, valued at $64.89 billion and representing 21.0% of his portfolio. He also reduced his holdings in Bank of America by 37.2 million shares, resulting in a holding of 568.1 million shares with a total value of $29.88 billion, representing 9.7% of his portfolio.
