Warren Buffett’s company Berkshire Hathaway remains the ultimate defensive megacap stock and deserves strong consideration in investor portfolios. Its
Class A stock
(ticker: BRK.A) rose 4% this year, against a 15% negative total return for the

(META) to rank fifth in the stock market, with a $680 billion market value.
