The Ghost of Charlie Munger: Why His "Frozen" 2025 Portfolio is Still Beating the Hyper-Active Traders

[BellaJones]

As we kick off 2026, the latest Charlie Munger portfolio 2025 report just hit the wires, and it’s a slap in the face to everyone who thinks you need to trade every AI headline to win.

While the rest of the market spent 2025 chasing Nvidia and panic-selling every dip, Munger’s portfolio—now managed with his "sit on your hands" philosophy—showed zero changes again.

The "Munger Four" are still standing strong into 2026:

• Wells Fargo ($WFC) - Still the biggest bet at nearly 48%.
• Bank of America ($BAC) - Holding tight at 40%.
• Alibaba ($BABA) - The controversial 10% stake that refuses to die.
• U.S. Bancorp ($USB) - The remaining 2%.

Because in 2025, this "boring" portfolio actually saw its value jump to over $276 million simply by doing nothing. It’s a silent protest against the high-frequency, AI-driven insanity of modern Wall Street.

Is Munger’s strategy the last bastion of sanity in 2026, or is the Daily Journal Corp playing a dangerous game by ignoring the tech revolution? Can a portfolio with zero AI exposure survive the next four quarters?

I’d love to hear from the veterans here: Are you still a believer in the "Buy and Hold until you die" (literally) strategy, or has the world moved on?
