But this figure is a bit misleading, as Berkshire Hathaway only owns two information technology companies: <b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ:AAPL) and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNOW\">Snowflake</a></b> (NYSE:SNOW).

Since Buffett doesn't follow tech stocks all too closely, Combs and Weschler will be tasked with ensuring that Berkshire's portfolio offers some cutting-edge tech representation. With Snowflake, Berkshire is getting exposure to a leading infrastructure company whose products are layered atop the most-popular cloud services, such as S3 and Azure.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7343c3ce7330b86321a8ec9384d4baea\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Financials: 29.97% of invested assets</h3>\n<p>Although it's no longer the largest sector in Buffett's portfolio, financials will always be the Oracle of Omaha's favorite place to put his company's capital to work. In total, Berkshire Hathaway owns a dozen financial stocks worth almost $94.3 billion, as of Sept. 16. This works out to 30% of Berkshire's invested assets.</p>\n<p>The reason the Oracle of Omaha loves financial stocks has to do with the cyclicality of the sector. Buffett isn't oblivious to the fact that recessions and economic contractions are a normal part of the economic cycle. But he's also keenly aware that recessions only last for a few months or, at most, a couple of quarters. By comparison, periods of economic expansion last years, if not a decade. These long periods of growth allow banks to take advantage of loan and deposit growth.</p>\n<p>Likewise, long periods of economic growth often lead to rising interest rates. As rates and yields rise, banks tend to reap the rewards via added net interest income. <b>Bank of America</b> (NYSE:BAC), the second-largest holding in Buffett's portfolio, is the most interest sensitive of the big bank stocks. Following its second-quarter operating results, Bank of America noted it would net $8 billion in extra net interest income in 12 months with a 100-basis-point parallel shift in the interest rate yield curve. Since this added income derives from outstanding loans, it would pretty much all go straight to BofA's bottom line.</p>\n<p>Another reason Buffett is a big fan of financials is their robust capital return programs. Take <b>U.S. Bancorp</b> (NYSE:USB) as a perfect example. U.S. Bancorp's focus on the bread-and-butter of banking (loan and deposit growth), coupled with its digitization efforts that have pushed a large number of retail sales online, have led to consistent cash flow and a market-topping yield of 3.2%.</p>\n<p>As long as Buffett exerts some level of control of Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, you can count on financial stocks playing a key role.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/299023e9f7694c143fc3162fbb154afa\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Coca-Cola.</p>\n<h3>Consumer staples: 11.58% of invested assets</h3>\n<p>The third-largest sector represented in Buffett's portfolio is consumer staples. The five consumer staples stocks that Berkshire Hathaway owns accounted for $36.6 billion in value as of Sept. 16, or a little less than 11.6% of invested assets. For added context, an 11.6% share of invested assets for consumer staples is a more than two-decade low for this sector in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio.</p>\n<p>The reason Buffett and his team have long been drawn to consumer staples is the predictability of cash flow from brand-name businesses. By definition, a consumer staple stock sells goods or services that are purchased in pretty much any economic environment. For instance, no matter how well or poorly the U.S. or global economy are performing, people need to buy food, toilet paper, detergent, toothpaste, and a number of other basic need goods and services. Companies that cater to these basic need items often produce predictable cash flow and a market-topping dividend.</p>\n<p>A majority of Berkshire's invested assets in consumer staples lie with <b>Coca-Cola</b> (NYSE:KO) and <b>Kraft Heinz</b> (NASDAQ:KHC).</p>\n<p>Coca-Cola is Berkshire Hathaway's longest-held stock, dating back 33 years. It's arguably the best-known consumer goods company on the planet, and is selling its products in all but two countries worldwide (North Korea and Cuba). Coke also controls a 20% share of the cold beverage market in developed countries and a 10% share in faster-growing emerging markets. It may be a relatively slow-growing company these days, but it's netting Buffett a nearly 52% annual yield, based on Berkshire's initial cost basis.</p>\n<p>As for Kraft Heinz, it's been one of Buffett's biggest disappointments. The Oracle of Omaha has admitted that Heinz overpaid for Kraft Foods, with the combined company taking a monstrous $15 billion write-down in 2019. Yet even with this flub, Kraft Heinz is providing Buffett with a 4.4% annual yield, and its prepackaged food has been a hit during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The consumer staples sector isn't the growth story it once was, but it can still deliver steady income and modest returns.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>85% of Warren Buffett's Portfolio Is in These 3 Sectors</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n85% of Warren Buffett's Portfolio Is in These 3 Sectors\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-20 20:47 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/20/85-of-warren-buffetts-portfolio-in-these-3-sectors/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Diversification isn't necessary if you know what you're doing, according to the Oracle of Omaha.\n\nKey Points\n\nNearly $268 billion of Berkshire Hathaway's $316.4 billion in invested assets are in three...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/20/85-of-warren-buffetts-portfolio-in-these-3-sectors/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SNOW":"Snowflake","BRK.A":"伯克希尔","BRK.B":"伯克希尔B","AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/20/85-of-warren-buffetts-portfolio-in-these-3-sectors/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2168770502","content_text":"Diversification isn't necessary if you know what you're doing, according to the Oracle of Omaha.\n\nKey Points\n\nNearly $268 billion of Berkshire Hathaway's $316.4 billion in invested assets are in three sectors.\nWarren Buffett prefers to invest in cyclical, time-tested companies with healthy capital return programs.\n\nIn terms of the world's greatest investors, Warren Buffett deserves to be in a class of his own.
