Buffett's Hidden ETF Plays: What His Secret Portfolio Reveals

robot
Abstract generation in progress

Want to know where Buffett really puts his money beyond Berkshire Hathaway? Through General Re’s New England Asset Management (NEAM), about 21% of this “shadow portfolio” is locked into just 3 ETFs.

SPY dominates at 13.1% — the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust, holding 503 mega-cap stocks. Thanks to the AI boom, it’s up 27% YTD. This is literally the world’s largest ETF by assets.

IEFA takes 4.2% — international play focusing on Europe, Australia, Asia. Holds 2,682 stocks with Novo Nordisk as its largest at only 1.82%. Classic diversification move.

VYM rounds it out at 4% — Vanguard’s high-dividend bet with 537 holdings paying 2.49% yield. Broadcom, JPMorgan, ExxonMobil are top bets. Expense ratio? Dirt cheap at 0.06%.

The 2025 wildcard? Trump tariffs could hammer IEFA hard. But tax cuts could lift SPY and VYM. Bottom line: these aren’t necessarily 2025 moonshots, but long-term core holdings? Probably solid.
