Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL): The technology giant is the top holding in the IVES ETF at 5.11% of assets. Apple is also the top holding of the Berkshire Hathaway investment portfolio with 227,917,808 shares owned. Apple represents 23% of the Berkshire investment portfolio, with the stake worth $61.96 billion at the end of the fourth quarter. Berkshire decreased its position in Apple stock by 4% in the fourth quarter.

Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN): The e-commerce giant is the second-largest holding in the IVES ETF at 4.94% of assets.

Different Investment Styles

For years, Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway avoided technology stocks. The legendary investor preferred to invest in value stocks with reliable revenue and earnings and not invest in stocks with high valuation multiples or, in some cases, unprofitability.

The three tech stocks owned by Berkshire Hathaway above are profitable and market leaders in several areas. Market leadership is a trait Buffett often looked for in stock picks.

Ives has discussed the "fourth industrial revolution" multiple times and assigned multi-billion- or trillion-dollar opportunities in AI among several top stock picks, including Tesla.

In 2025, Ives highlighted the Trump administration and the AI Action Plan as being key to AI growth going forward.

"We have barely scratched the surface of this fourth Industrial Revolution now playing out around the world led by the Big Tech stalwarts," Ives said previously.
