Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B) CEO Warren Buffett is easily one of the greatest investors of our generation. He's doubled up the annualized total return, including dividends paid, of the S 500 since becoming CEO in 1965 (as of Dec. 31, 2022), and he's overseen an aggregate return in his company's Class A shares (BRK.A) of 4,365,810%, as of the closing bell on Aug. 25, 2023.

What makes the Oracle of Omaha an investor favorite is his willingness to share what's made him successful. It also doesn't hurt that Berkshire Hathaway is required to disclose its holdings each quarter via a 13F, which has allowed investors to ride Buffett's coattails to significant gains over a span of nearly six decades.
