The most controversial policy on Wall Street.
Warren Buffett focuses everything on traditional stocks.
Nancy Pelosi bets heavily on tech, AI, and options.
Two gigantic portfolios that demonstrate opposing market views and may make you rethink your investments.
- Buffett plays the same old game.
Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio totals $258 billion.
And 22% is in a single stock: Apple.
Apple, American Express, Bank of America, and Coca-Cola represent more than half of the portfolio.
It's the classic: few names, lots of weight, and a long-term focus.
- Pelosi plays the modern game—and Congress's.
The congresswoman's (or rather, her husband's) portfolio is filled with tech:
• NVIDIA = 19%
• Broadcom, Alphabet, Visa, Amazon, Apple, Microsoft…
Furthermore, she frequently trades options—especially tech calls.
- Pelosi's fame is not without reason. Her portfolio gained notoriety with far above-average performance: • Estimated +700% accumulated since 2014 • In 2024, it returned over +90% for the year
Such visibility even generated apps and ETFs trying to replicate her movements.
But it also raised significant suspicions of insider trading.
- Buffett vs. Pelosi: Two Ways of Looking at the Market.
Buffett invests based on fundamentals, predictability, and value.
Pelosi seeks growth, innovation, and hype cycles, capitalizing on issues that frequently pass through Congress.
It's Berkshire vs. Nasdaq.
It's conviction versus agility.
It's stability versus leverage.
And both are making money.
- What does this say about the market? That there's not just one way to invest. But also that each portfolio reveals how its owner views risk, cycles, and opportunities.
And understanding these contrasts can give you much more clarity about where to allocate your money.
