Warren Buffett, chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A, NYSE: BRK.B), has invested in technology stocks, notably Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN). Berkshire first purchased Apple shares in 2016 and still holds over 300 million shares worth more than $60 billion as of Q1 2025, representing 21.2% of its portfolio.

Berkshire’s investment in Amazon, initiated in 2019, is approximately $2.2 billion, or about 0.8% of its nearly $285 billion portfolio. In Q1 2025, Amazon generated $155.7 billion in revenue, a 9% year-over-year increase, with operating earnings of $18.4 billion, growing 20.3% from the previous year. Amazon’s capital expenditures may exceed $100 billion in 2025, focused on AI and related technologies.

Apple’s recent revenue for fiscal Q2 2025 reached $90.8 billion, with a modest 5% growth, and the company maintains a strong cash position, enabling ongoing share repurchases and a quarterly dividend of $0.26 per share. Both companies exemplify strong growth potential, with Amazon led by significant investments in innovation and Apple benefiting from brand loyalty and operational excellence.
