GOOG
Alphabet Inc-cl C
34 super-investors hold GOOG worth a combined $18.84B. The largest position: Li Lu at 22.0% of their portfolio. This quarter the cohort logged 4 buys and 3 sells on the name. Cohort Conviction Score: 67 — ranked #9 of 724 scored stocks. Conviction rising: 1 more super-investor hold it than in 2025Q4.
Why super-investors own GOOG
The most consequential development this quarter is Warren Buffett initiating a position — a notable shift given Berkshire's long-stated reluctance toward mega-cap tech. He was joined by Christopher Bloomstran as a new entrant, while Duan Yongping and John Armitage added to existing stakes, with Armitage now carrying GOOG at 11.0% of his portfolio. The cohort stands at 34 owners with $18.8B in combined exposure, the highest count in the eight quarters tracked. Li Lu holds the most concentrated bet at 22.0% of his portfolio ($703M), followed by Thomas Russo at 11.3% ($961M). Against that broadening interest, Bill Ackman and Vulcan Value Partners trimmed, and Pat Dorsey exited entirely — suggesting some rotation even as aggregate cohort conviction is clearly rising.
