<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/warren-buffett">Warren Buffett</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cathie-woodhttps://www.benzinga.com/topic/cathie-wood">Cathie Wood</a> may both be stock-picking legends, but their portfolios might as well be from different galaxies. While Buffett cruises the investing seas with old-school juggernauts, Wood launches rockets hoping they'll land on the moon &#8211; or at least avoid burning up on re-entry.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tech Vs. Tact: A Tale Of Two Strategies</h2>
Data from HedgeFollow <a href="https://hedgefollow.com/funds/Berkshire+Hathaway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suggests that</a> in the fourth quarter of 2024, Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) clocked in a respectable 2.74% gain, quietly pushing his war chest to a towering $267 billion.
Meanwhile, Cathie Wood's ARK Innovation Fund (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#BATS">ARKK</a>) lit up with a scorching 23.82% quarterly return &#8211; but before ARK fans pop champagne, the long-term picture tells a more sobering story.
Over the past three years, Buffett's top 50 holdings (weighted) returned +20.29%, while Wood's delivered a bruising -33.63%. That's not just a bad quarter &#8211; it's a full-blown crash landing.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Buffett's Billion-Dollar Boring Works Brilliantly</h2>
The difference? 
Buffett's portfolio is a fortress of slow-burning compounders. His crown jewel, Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), takes up 28% of his portfolio and has returned a jaw-dropping +438.8% from its average buy price.
Throw in American Express Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>) (+277.6%), Bank of America Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) (+55.8%) and Coca-Cola Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>) (+77%), and it's clear the Oracle of Omaha is still the king of buying great companies at great prices… and holding them forever.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Cathie's High-Flyers Keep Crashing Back To Earth</h2>
Cathie Wood, on the other hand, is all about "disruption" — and sometimes, the disruption is in her portfolio&#8217;s value. Take Roku Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>), down 46.6% from her average buy-in, and Block Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XYZ#NYSE">XYZ</a>), down -50.1%. Her top bets, like Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>), have had moments of glory, but the overall portfolio has been whipsawed by volatility and drawn-out tech drawdowns.
To her credit, Wood&#8217;s fourth-quarter comeback shows that high-beta bets can pay off—just not consistently. While her fund has a whopping 181 holdings, many are moonshots still waiting for liftoff.
Overall, Buffett's performance shows the power of patience and pricing. Wood? She's still betting on the future &#8211; but it seems Buffett is quietly owning it.
Which camp would you rather retire in &#8211; the steady compounder or the volatile visionary?

Exxon Mobil Q1: Steady Production, Focus On Cost Cuts And Stock Buyback

The U.S. labor market showed signs of strength in April, with hiring momentum topping estimates despite the impact of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">trade tariffs across industries.</a>
Nonfarm payrolls increased by 177,000 last month, slightly down from a downwardly revised 185,000 in March, according to data released Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. 
The outcome surpassed both economist forecasts for a 130,000 gain and betting markets – tracked by CFTC-regulated platform Kalshi – which had priced in a 90,000 increase.
In April, employment continued to rise across several sectors, including health care, transportation and warehousing, financial activities, and social assistance, while federal government jobs declined.
The health care sector added 51,000 jobs—closely in line with its 12-month average of 52,000. Notable increases were seen in hospitals, up 22,000, and ambulatory health care services, up 21,000.
Transportation and warehousing employment rose by 29,000, rebounding from a modest gain of 3,000 in March. Within the sector, job growth was concentrated in warehousing and storage, up 10,000, couriers and messengers, up 8,000, and air transportation, up 3,000. 
Federal government employment declined by 9,000, reflecting rising layoffs amid reforms led by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 4.2%, as expected. 
Wage growth lost some momentum. Average hourly earnings rose 0.2% on the month, down from both the prior and expected 0.3%. On an annual basis, wages were up 3.8%, steady from March but slightly below the forecasted 3.9%.
Ahead of the April jobs report, money markets had priced in a 58% probability of a 25-basis-point rate cut at the Federal Reserve's June meeting, according to CME FedWatch.
