Overview

In late June 2026, Warren Buffett highlighted Coca‑Cola and American Express as his top long‑term holdings, signaling confidence in those businesses.

A month later, newly appointed CEO Greg Abel reaffirmed Berkshire Hathaway’s commitment to its core portfolio. He emphasized American Express as a “no‑brain‑value” dividend‑growth stock, noting strong earnings and rising card‑member spending that support ongoing dividend hikes and share buybacks. Abel also reiterated the firm’s sizable stake in Occidental Petroleum, underscoring Berkshire’s continued interest in both financial‑services and oil assets as part of its multi‑decade compounding strategy.
