This chart captures the strategic divergence between Warren Buffett’s traditional value approach and Cathie Wood’s disruptive growth thesis. Buffett leans heavily into Financials (41%), Staples (15%), and Energy (12%), while Wood favors Healthcare (20.5%), Tech (24.4%), and Consumer Discretionary (14%).
🧠 Takeaway: Buffett builds around cash flow, moats, and regulatory resilience. Wood bets on innovation cycles, optionality, and exponential upside.
📊 Analysis:
Warren Buffett’s portfolio reflects defensive strength and predictable earnings — banks, insurers, and consumer giants
Cathie Wood’s allocation tilts toward high-variance sectors — genomics, AI, EVs, and digital platforms
Tech overlap is the only common ground (Buffett: 23.6%, Wood: 24.4%) — but the underlying names differ dramatically.
