These are held by a large fraction of the clever managers. Note that Berkshire Hathaway is listed twice because of the A & B shares.? Also note that the Royal Bank of Scotland is preferred shares, and not the common.
But these aren’t the largest holdings of the group of managers.? What might that look like?

That sums up the billion-plus holdings for my favorite managers.? That doesn’t mean that I endorse all of their holdings.? Only 3 out of my 34 holdings were revealed in the top holdings of these highly rated managers.
Full disclosure: long COP, VOD, TRV for myself and clients that get a clone of my portfolio.
