Warren Buffett’s Final Stock Picks Before 2025 Retirement
Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett will step down at the end of 2025, concluding a 55-year tenure as the conglomerate's chief architect. His departure marks the end of an era for investors who have long mirrored Berkshire's trades, as future stock picks will lack his direct endorsement.
The current portfolio represents Buffett's last confirmed investments, anchored by a $28 billion stake in Coca-Cola—the third-largest position comprising 10% of Berkshire's equity holdings. The beverage giant has delivered nearly 200% returns since Buffett began accumulating shares in late 2006.
Berkshire maintains significant exposure to tech through $2.2 billion in Amazon shares and $5.5 billion in Alphabet. Amazon's recent $35 billion India expansion commitment through 2030 contrasts with Alphabet's dominance of 90% global search traffic. Wall Street remains bullish on Amazon, with December 2025 price targets ranging $270-$300.
