Benchmark Metrics

Berkshire Hathaway Portfolio has an annualized alpha of 13.23%, beta of 0.41, and R2 of 0.28 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since December 16, 2025.

  • This portfolio captured 46.47% of S&P 500 Index gains and tended to rise during its downturns (downside capture of -18.27%) - a profile typical of hedging or uncorrelated assets.
  • Beta of 0.41 may look defensive, but with R2 of 0.28 this portfolio is largely uncorrelated with S&P 500 Index - low beta reflects independence, not downside protection. See the Volatility section for a true picture of this portfolio's risk.
  • R2 of 0.28 means this portfolio moves largely independently of S&P 500 Index - capture ratios reflect limited market correlation rather than active downside protection. Consider using a more representative benchmark.

Diversification

AI Analysis


The gist

The portfolio is a diversified conglomerate thesis in disguise: banks, consumer staples, big tech, and energy are all present, but the real center of gravity is financials plus a few very large single-name bets, so the diversification is real and also somewhat busy.

The numbers

  • 24 positions produce an effective count of 8.48, so the portfolio behaves more like a handful of independent bets than a true 24-name basket.
  • The diversification ratio is 2.39, at the 99.2th percentile on the platform, which is a strong reading of cross-sector spread.
  • Mean pairwise correlation is 0.12; that is low enough to matter, though the 0.99 twin pairs show that some names are duplicates in the statistical sense.

The good

  • The portfolio spans several distinct earnings engines: consumer staples, banks, integrated energy, big tech, and healthcare, which is how diversification usually earns its keep.
  • Negative links between energy and some technology names help the math; Chevron (CVX) and Occidental Petroleum (OXY) sitting near Alphabet (GOOGL) and Alphabet (GOOG) at subzero correlations is the sort of thing the spreadsheet appreciates.
  • The weight distribution is not absurdly concentrated; there are real medium-sized positions beyond the top two.

The bad

  • Alphabet (GOOGL) and Alphabet (GOOG), plus Lyell-related share classes LLYVK and LLYVA, are effectively the same economic exposure, so part of the 24-name count is bookkeeping with nicer font.
  • The financials block is large and internally tied together: American Express (AXP), Capital One (COF), Ally Financial (ALLY), Bank of America (BAC), and Chubb (CB) cluster around credit conditions and the consumer cycle.
  • The portfolio’s correlations are low overall, but much of the diversification comes from mixing cyclical with defensive rather than from many unrelated idiosyncratic sleeves.

The ugly

  • In a credit downturn with rising charge-offs, the financials cluster and the consumer names can start behaving like one trade, which is the old joke of diversification: many tickers, one macro variable.
  • If oil and refined-products names weaken at the same time as cyclicals soften, CVX and OXY stop being diversifiers and become another shared factor with the rest of the portfolio.

Next steps

  • Portfolios with this profile are often characterized by a few statistically duplicated positions alongside genuinely distinct sleeves, so the effective count tells the truer story than the raw count.
  • The correlation structure would read differently with more exposure whose earnings are driven by rates, inflation, or commodities rather than consumer credit.
  • The strongest diversification benefit here comes from cross-sector mixing; that is also where
