It's been a rough year for many tech stocks. The Trump administration's tariffs, the intensifying trade wars, and other macro headwinds have all made it difficult to invest in tech companies, which rely heavily on overseas supply chains and healthy economies.

Warren Buffett is not known for betting big on technology stocks, but one long-term favorite of his has been VeriSign (VRSN 1.25%). Buffett began accumulating shares of the company back in 2012, and it was one of the few stocks he was buying in the fourth quarter of last year.

VeriSign Inc (NASDAQ: VRSN) has been in a sharp uptrend this year, having gained about 35% over the past four months – but the stock's chart more recently has started showing signs of near-term exhaustion.

VeriSign (VRSN 8.79%) shares took off Friday morning after the company released first-quarter earnings and declared a dividend for the first time. Its solid results also allowed the company to raise revenue guidance for the full year.

With tariffs dominating the conversations in financial markets recently, looking for stocks that can withstand their effects can be highly valuable. This is true even as President Trump appears to be making a 180 on his tariff talk.
