A Morningstar report from December 2, 2025, highlights three big names in the legendary investor's portfolio.
First on the list is The Coca-Cola Company, valued for its massive competitive edge.
Morningstar notes that market dominance and a healthy balance sheet are the main drivers behind this beverage giant's stability.
The second pick falls to American Express Company thanks to its closed-loop network business model.
Its direct relationship with merchants allows the company to capture the full economic profit from every single credit card transaction.
The final spot goes to Occidental Petroleum Corporation as a giant independent oil and gas producer.
Management is credited with fixing the balance sheet by significantly slashing debt over the last few years.
Morningstar suggests investors keep these stocks on their watchlist and buy the dip when prices hit below fair value.
This move confirms Berkshire's focus on established, resilient businesses ahead of the leadership transition later this year.
