Berkshire Hathaway, led by CEO Greg Abel, nearly tripled its Alphabet shares to about 57.8 million, valuing the stake at $16.6 billion, making Alphabet a top-five holding. This move follows strong Q1 2026 results from Alphabet, including a significant cloud backlog and robust AI investments. Meanwhile, Bill Ackman's Pershing Square sold most of its Alphabet shares to invest heavily in Microsoft, which also shows strong AI-driven growth but trades at a lower valuation. Both investors are betting on AI infrastructure but differ on which company will better monetize AI. For retirement investors, diversifying between both stocks may align better with institutional strategies than choosing one over the other.
