Berkshire Hathaway Cuts Amazon Stake by 77% in Q4 2025
Warren Buffett’s investment firm reduced its Amazon holdings by $1.7 billion and sold $2.7 billion worth of Apple shares in the final quarter of 2025.
Fact Check
Multiple high-credibility financial outlets report that Berkshire Hathaway reduced its Amazon position by 77% in Q4 2025, explicitly tying the figure to Berkshire’s SEC Form 13F for the quarter. Coverage from The Globe and Mail and Business Insider directly cites the 13F and agrees on both the magnitude (77%) and timing (fourth quarter of 2025). Barron’s and Morningstar also analyze the same quarterly holdings and are consistent with a material reduction in Amazon. No source in the set provides contradictory data; the CNBC piece references an earlier quarter and does not conflict. Lower-cred channels (Reddit, X) echo the same number but are not essential to the conclusion. Given that the reports converge on a specific percentage derived from the authoritative 13F filing—the primary public record of Berkshire’s U.S. equity holdings—the statement is very likely true.
