Songlin</p><p>Recently, at the 2022 shareholders' meeting of Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, 91-year-old Buffett and 98-year-old Munger appeared together again. When asked how to time investment like Berkshire, Buffett replied: \"I never know how to time the market. We occasionally seize some opportunities, not because we are smarter, but because we are more rational. Don't buy or sell because of market or economic conditions, but buy when you think the investment object is cheap.\"</p><p>Here's what Buffett said, and Berkshire did the same. Since the beginning of this year, U.S. stocks have fallen sharply, U.S. inflation has continued to soar, and the market is filled with panic, but Berkshire has bucked the trend and added positions.</p><p>At the end of the first quarter, Berkshire Hathaway's holdings reached an all-time high of $363.554 billion. Cash burn from big investments dropped Berkshire's cash reserves to their lowest level since the third quarter of 2018 at the end of the first quarter. What's even rarer is that Berkshire, whose turnover rate remained around 2% in all quarters last year, frequently adjusted positions this year, and its turnover rate rose to 12%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cbacf953515626cd74e5171073933210\" tg-width=\"550\" tg-height=\"365\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>On April 30, 2022 local time, Berkshire Hathaway's Annual General Meeting of Shareholders was held in Omaha, USA. The screen shows \"Stock God\" Buffett (left) and Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Munger.</p><p><b>Oil stocks' buy as much as you can'</b></p><p>On May 17th, Beijing time, Berkshire submitted Form 13F to the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with the law, officially disclosing the specific information of the company's shareholding at the end of the first quarter. According to the position report, in the first quarter, Berkshire newly invested in 8 stocks such as Citibank and Paramount, increased its holdings in 7 stocks such as Apple, Chevron, Activision Blizzard and General Motors, lightened its positions in 4 stocks and cleared its positions in 3 stocks.</p><p>It is worth noting that nearly half of the holdings were oil stocks, especially the 136 million shares of Occidental Petroleum Corporation and the 120 million shares of Chevron. In the first quarter of the big dive in U.S. stocks, the shares of Occidental Petroleum and Chevron rose by 134% and 47% respectively, and the gains did not abate. Occidental Petroleum has surged 91% this year, making it the best performing stock in the S&P 500.</p><p>At the shareholders' meeting,<b>Buffett once said: \"Now the U.S. federal government has a billion barrels of oil storage. Now everyone thinks that it is a good thing that this country has so many oil storage, but when you think about it carefully, it is not enough. These reserves will be gone in three to five years, and you don't know what will happen in three to five years.\" The move to invest in oil stocks is his bet on a long-term rise in oil prices.</b></p><p>Among many oil stocks, Buffett and Occidental Petroleum have long been \"missed\". In 2020, Buffett emptied his Occidental Petroleum stock owing to Occidental's heavy indebtedness and worrying industry prospects. The steady rise in oil prices in 2021 has given Western oil an opportunity to turn around. Not only has the operating cash flow more than tripled compared with 2020, reaching 10.2 billion USD, but the revenue and profit are also encouraging.</p><p>Buffett said in an interview that he read the transcript of Occidental's fourth-quarter 2021 earnings call and believed the CEO was \"running the company in the right way\" before deciding to buy Occidental's stake. At the same time,<b>Buffett also stressed: \"For Western oil, we can buy as much as we can.\"</b>In May, Berkshire spent another $52 million to buy about 902,000 shares of Occidental Petroleum.</p><p><b>Join the \"value game\" again</b></p><p>Among the eight new stocks that Berkshire opened in the first quarter, the controversial one was Citibank. According to the position report, Berkshire cleared its position in Wells Fargo, a \"classic\" it had held for nearly 33 years, in the first quarter and bought 55 million shares of Citigroup worth about $3 billion.</p><p>Citibank has generated lower returns than its peers over the years and has faced regulatory issues in nearly two years, including a $400 million fine by federal regulators in 2020 and a cease-of-business order from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) for failing to improve internal controls related to compliance, data and risk management. Citibank's share price has fallen nearly 40% in the past 12 months, far more than the overall decline in bank stocks.</p><p>In 2020, when the new CEO Fraser took office, he announced that Citibank was currently disposing of its poorly profitable retail banking business in Asia, and after that, Citi's business in Asia would shift to wealth management.</p><p>Some think Citibank is a value trap, while others think the stock is \"very Buffett\": the stock price is undervalued and the Dividend rate is attractive. Citigroup now trades at less than 60% of its tangible book value and yields a 4.3% annual dividend that far outperforms Wells Fargo. Management has also made it clear that modest buybacks will be made this year where possible. Waiting for Citigroup's transformation plan, which could take years, will be another \"value game\".</p><p><b>Unswervingly \"pick apples\"</b></p><p>An important cornerstone of Buffettism is focus. Don't overemphasize the importance of diversity or diversify for the sake of diversity. At the end of the first quarter, the concentration of Berkshire's top ten holdings was as high as 87.20%. Among them, the first weight stock as the \"ballast stone\" is still Apple, accounting for about 43% of its stock portfolio after increasing its holdings in the first quarter.</p><p>As a tech giant, Apple's financial strength and profitability are beyond doubt. Buffett not only recognized Cook's style of \"regarding users of Apple products as his first love\", but also appreciated Cook's stock repurchase strategy. Berkshire didn't increase its stake in Apple in 2021, but because of Apple's buybacks and Dividend, investors, including Berkshire, increased their earnings \"without lifting a finger.\" Berkshire received a staggering $785 million in Dividend from Apple last year.</p><p>Before opening a position in Apple in 2016, one of Buffett's impressions was that his biggest blind spot was technology stocks, because after rarely buying IBM, its stock price fell all the way, and Berkshire suffered heavy losses. And buying Apple was not Buffett's idea. His explanation was that \"both Combs and Wessler could make investment decisions without first consulting me\". These two, Todd Combs and Ted Wessler, who are currently in charge of Berkshire's investments, are reportedly the very future helmsmen who will take over all stock-picking duties when Buffett retires.</p><p>In the first quarter, it was Buffett's personal decision to increase its holdings in another technology stock, Activision Blizzard, mainly based on Microsoft's announced plan to acquire Activision Blizzard.</p><p>Buffett once said that if I wanted to choose between monkeys who choose stocks by casting darts but don't charge management fees and Wall Street people, I would always choose monkeys. Buffett, who has always claimed that he is \"bad at timing\", led Berkshire from a textile mill on the verge of bankruptcy in Rodin in 1965 to a financial empire with a market value of $760 billion, with an annualized income of a staggering 20.1%. And he's not worried about Berkshire's future. Buffett insists there is no reason to worry about where the company will go after he leaves office, with corporate culture accounting for 99 percent of the company. \"If we had the same culture, we'd be around for another 100 years from now.\"</p><p></body></html></p>","source":"lsy1568603146990","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Buffett's Raiders to Bargain-hunting Against the Market: Oil Stocks \"Buy as much as you can\"</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nBuffett's Raiders to Bargain-hunting Against the Market: Oil Stocks \"Buy as much as you can\"\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">中国经济周刊</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2022-06-05 11:24</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p><html><head></head><body>Author: Zou Songlin</p><p>Recently, at the 2022 shareholders' meeting of Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, 91-year-old Buffett and 98-year-old Munger appeared together again.

Buffett insists there is no reason to worry about where the company will go after he leaves office, with corporate culture accounting for 99 percent of the company. \"If we had the same culture, we'd be around for another 100 years from now.\"</p><p></body></html></p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source:<a href=\"https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/iwfGW2GmOD5peXcnrbcLhw\">中国经济周刊</a></p>\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3ecc14db02762fcb82cdbb76e654301","relate_stocks":{"BRK.B":"伯克希尔B","BRK.A":"伯克希尔"},"source_url":"https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/iwfGW2GmOD5peXcnrbcLhw","is_english":false,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1189093907","content_text":"作者:邹松霖近期,在巴菲特旗下伯克希尔·哈撒韦公司2022年股东大会上,91岁的巴菲特和98岁的芒格再度搭档亮相。当被问及如何像伯克希尔那样把握投资时机时,巴菲特回答:“从来都没搞清楚怎么确定市场的时机,我们偶尔抓住些机会,不是因为我们更聪明,而是我们更理智。不要因为市场或经济的情况去买卖,而是在觉得投资对象价格便宜的时候买入。”巴菲特是这样说的,伯克希尔也是这样做的。今年以来,美股大幅下跌,美国通胀持续飙升,市场恐慌弥漫,伯克希尔却逆势加仓。一季度末,伯克希尔·哈撒韦持仓规模达到了3635.54亿美元的历史最高值。大手笔投资带来的现金消耗使一季度末伯克希尔的现金储备降到2018年第三季度以来的最低水平。更罕见的是,在去年各季度换手率保持在2%上下的伯克希尔,今年频繁调仓,换手率升至12%。当地时间2022年4月30日,美国奥马哈,伯克希尔·哈撒韦年度股东大会举行。屏幕显示“股神”巴菲特 ( 左 ) 和伯克希尔·哈撒韦副董事长芒格。石油股“能买多少买多少”北京时间5月17日,伯克希尔依照法律规定向美国证监会提交了13F表(Form 13 F),正式披露了第一季度末公司持股的具体信息。根据持仓报告,一季度伯克希尔共新进花旗银行、派拉蒙等8只股票,增持苹果、雪佛龙、动视暴雪、通用汽车等7只股票,减仓4只股票,清仓3只股票。值得注意的是,增持规模里近一半都是石油股,特别是增持西方石油(Occidental Petroleum Corporation)1.36亿股,增持雪佛龙1.2亿股。而在美股大跳水的一季度,西方石油和雪佛龙股价分别上涨了134%和 47%,并且涨势不减。西方石油公司股价今年飙升了91%,成为标准普尔500指数中表现最好的股票。在股东大会上,巴菲特曾表示:“现在美国联邦政府有上十亿桶的石油存储量。现在大家觉得,这个国家有这么多储油是好事,仔细想想其实不够多。3到5年这些储量就没了,你也不知道三五年后会怎样。”投资石油股的举措是他对油价长期上涨的押注。而在众多石油股里,巴菲特和西方石油早有“错失”的渊源。2020年巴菲特曾因西方石油沉重的负债与行业前景堪忧,清空了他所持有的西方石油股票。而2021年石油价格的平稳上涨,给予了西方石油大翻身的机会,不但经营性现金流相较2020年涨了两倍多,达到102亿美元,营收和利润也令人鼓舞。巴菲特在接受采访时表示,他阅读了西方石油公司2021年第四季度财报电话会议记录,认为CEO“在以正确的方式管理公司”,才决定购买西方石油的股份。同时,巴菲特还强调称:“对于西方石油,我们能买多少就买多少。”今年5月,伯克希尔公司又斥资5200万美元,购买了约90.2万股西方石油公司股票。再加入“价值游戏”在伯克希尔一季度新建仓的8只股票中,引起争议的是花旗银行。根据持仓报告,伯克希尔一季度清仓了持有近33年的“经典之作”富国银行,买入5500万股花旗集团的股票,价值约30亿美元。花旗银行多年来产生的回报低于同行,又在近两年面临监管问题,包括在2020 年被联邦监管机构处以4亿美元的罚款,还有因未能改善与合规、数据和风险管理相关的内部控制,收到美国货币监理署 (OCC) 的业务停止令。花旗银行近12个月股价下跌近40%,远超过银行股总体下跌幅度。2020年,新任首席执行官弗雷泽上任后,即宣布目前花旗银行正在处置旗下盈利效益不佳的亚洲零售银行业务,此后花旗在亚洲的业务将转向财富管理方面。有人认为花旗银行是个价值陷阱,也有人认为这只股“很巴菲特”:股价被低估,股息率诱人。花旗集团目前的交易价格不到其有形账面价值的 60%,年股息收益率4.3%远超过富国银行。管理层也已明确表示,今年将在可能的情况下进行适度回购。等待花旗集团的转型计划可能需要数年时间,这将是另一次“价值游戏”。坚定不移“摘苹果”巴菲特主义的一个重要基石是专注。不要过分强调多元化的重要性,也不要为了多元化而多元化。一季度末,伯克希尔十大重仓股集中度高达87.20%。其中作为“压舱石”的第一重仓股仍然是苹果公司,一季度增持之后占其股票投资组合的比例约43%。作为科技行业巨无霸,苹果公司的财务实力和盈利能力毋庸置疑。而巴菲特除了认可库克“将苹果产品的用户视为自己的初恋”的风格外,更十分激赏库克的股票回购策略。2021年伯克希尔并没有增持苹果股份,但因为苹果公司的回购和股息,让包括伯克希尔在内的投资者“不必动一根指头”就增加了收益。去年伯克希尔从苹果公司得到了惊人的7.85亿美元股息。在2016年建仓苹果之前,巴菲特给外界的印象之一是他最大的盲区是科技股,因为在少有地购入科技股IBM之后,其股价一路下跌,伯克希尔损失惨重。而买入苹果也并非巴菲特的主意。他对此的解释是“库姆斯和韦斯勒都可以在没有先咨询我的情况下,作出投资决定”。据报道,这两位目前主管伯克希尔投资的托德·库姆斯和泰德·韦斯勒,正是当巴菲特退休时将接管所有选股职责的未来舵手。一季度增持另一个科技股——动视暴雪则是巴菲特的个人决定,主要基于微软宣布收购动视暴雪的计划。巴菲特曾说,如果要在靠投飞镖选股票但不收管理费的猴子和华尔街人士里选一个,我一直都会选猴子。一直号称自己“不擅长择时”的巴菲特,带领伯克希尔从1965年位于罗丹的一家濒临破产的纺织厂,成长为市值7600亿美元的金融帝国,年化收益达到惊人的20.1%。而他也并不担心伯克希尔的未来。巴菲特坚称,没有理由担心他离任后公司何去何从,企业文化占公司的99%。“如果我们有同样的文化,我们从现在开始还会存在100年。”","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.A":0.9,"BRK.B":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":892,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9053092593,"gmtCreate":1654448584512,"gmtModify":1676535449035,"author":{"id":"4111983212732212","authorId":"4111983212732212","name":"bee bee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4111983212732212","idStr":"4111983212732212"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9053092593","repostId":"1189093907","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1189093907","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1654399451,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1189093907?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-05 11:24","market":"us","language":"zh","title":"Buffett's Raiders to Bargain-hunting Against the Market: Oil Stocks \"Buy as much as you can\"","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1189093907","media":"中国经济周刊","summary":"不要因为市场或经济的情况去买卖,而是在觉得投资对象价格便宜的时候买入。","content":"<p><html><head></head><body>Author: Zou Songlin</p><p>Recently, at the 2022 shareholders' meeting of Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, 91-year-old Buffett and 98-year-old Munger appeared together again.

Cash burn from big investments dropped Berkshire's cash reserves to their lowest level since the third quarter of 2018 at the end of the first quarter. What's even rarer is that Berkshire, whose turnover rate remained around 2% in all quarters last year, frequently adjusted positions this year, and its turnover rate rose to 12%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cbacf953515626cd74e5171073933210\" tg-width=\"550\" tg-height=\"365\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>On April 30, 2022 local time, Berkshire Hathaway's Annual General Meeting of Shareholders was held in Omaha, USA. The screen shows \"Stock God\" Buffett (left) and Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Munger.</p><p><b>Oil stocks' buy as much as you can'</b></p><p>On May 17th, Beijing time, Berkshire submitted Form 13F to the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with the law, officially disclosing the specific information of the company's shareholding at the end of the first quarter. According to the position report, in the first quarter, Berkshire newly invested in 8 stocks such as Citibank and Paramount, increased its holdings in 7 stocks such as Apple, Chevron, Activision Blizzard and General Motors, lightened its positions in 4 stocks and cleared its positions in 3 stocks.</p><p>It is worth noting that nearly half of the holdings were oil stocks, especially the 136 million shares of Occidental Petroleum Corporation and the 120 million shares of Chevron. In the first quarter of the big dive in U.S. stocks, the shares of Occidental Petroleum and Chevron rose by 134% and 47% respectively, and the gains did not abate. Occidental Petroleum has surged 91% this year, making it the best performing stock in the S&P 500.</p><p>At the shareholders' meeting,<b>Buffett once said: \"Now the U.S. federal government has a billion barrels of oil storage. Now everyone thinks that it is a good thing that this country has so many oil storage, but when you think about it carefully, it is not enough. These reserves will be gone in three to five years, and you don't know what will happen in three to five years.\" The move to invest in oil stocks is his bet on a long-term rise in oil prices.</b></p><p>Among many oil stocks, Buffett and Occidental Petroleum have long been \"missed\". In 2020, Buffett emptied his Occidental Petroleum stock owing to Occidental's heavy indebtedness and worrying industry prospects. The steady rise in oil prices in 2021 has given Western oil an opportunity to turn around. Not only has the operating cash flow more than tripled compared with 2020, reaching 10.2 billion USD, but the revenue and profit are also encouraging.</p><p>Buffett said in an interview that he read the transcript of Occidental's fourth-quarter 2021 earnings call and believed the CEO was \"running the company in the right way\" before deciding to buy Occidental's stake. At the same time,<b>Buffett also stressed: \"For Western oil, we can buy as much as we can.\"</b>In May, Berkshire spent another $52 million to buy about 902,000 shares of Occidental Petroleum.</p><p><b>Join the \"value game\" again</b></p><p>Among the eight new stocks that Berkshire opened in the first quarter, the controversial one was Citibank. According to the position report, Berkshire cleared its position in Wells Fargo, a \"classic\" it had held for nearly 33 years, in the first quarter and bought 55 million shares of Citigroup worth about $3 billion.</p><p>Citibank has generated lower returns than its peers over the years and has faced regulatory issues in nearly two years, including a $400 million fine by federal regulators in 2020 and a cease-of-business order from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) for failing to improve internal controls related to compliance, data and risk management. Citibank's share price has fallen nearly 40% in the past 12 months, far more than the overall decline in bank stocks.</p><p>In 2020, when the new CEO Fraser took office, he announced that Citibank was currently disposing of its poorly profitable retail banking business in Asia, and after that, Citi's business in Asia would shift to wealth management.</p><p>Some think Citibank is a value trap, while others think the stock is \"very Buffett\": the stock price is undervalued and the Dividend rate is attractive. Citigroup now trades at less than 60% of its tangible book value and yields a 4.3% annual dividend that far outperforms Wells Fargo. Management has also made it clear that modest buybacks will be made this year where possible. Waiting for Citigroup's transformation plan, which could take years, will be another \"value game\".</p><p><b>Unswervingly \"pick apples\"</b></p><p>An important cornerstone of Buffettism is focus. Don't overemphasize the importance of diversity or diversify for the sake of diversity. At the end of the first quarter, the concentration of Berkshire's top ten holdings was as high as 87.20%. Among them, the first weight stock as the \"ballast stone\" is still Apple, accounting for about 43% of its stock portfolio after increasing its holdings in the first quarter.</p><p>As a tech giant, Apple's financial strength and profitability are beyond doubt. Buffett not only recognized Cook's style of \"regarding users of Apple products as his first love\", but also appreciated Cook's stock repurchase strategy. Berkshire didn't increase its stake in Apple in 2021, but because of Apple's buybacks and Dividend, investors, including Berkshire, increased their earnings \"without lifting a finger.\" Berkshire received a staggering $785 million in Dividend from Apple last year.</p><p>Before opening a position in Apple in 2016, one of Buffett's impressions was that his biggest blind spot was technology stocks, because after rarely buying IBM, its stock price fell all the way, and Berkshire suffered heavy losses. And buying Apple was not Buffett's idea. His explanation was that \"both Combs and Wessler could make investment decisions without first consulting me\". These two, Todd Combs and Ted Wessler, who are currently in charge of Berkshire's investments, are reportedly the very future helmsmen who will take over all stock-picking duties when Buffett retires.</p><p>In the first quarter, it was Buffett's personal decision to increase its holdings in another technology stock, Activision Blizzard, mainly based on Microsoft's announced plan to acquire Activision Blizzard.</p><p>Buffett once said that if I wanted to choose between monkeys who choose stocks by casting darts but don't charge management fees and Wall Street people, I would always choose monkeys. Buffett, who has always claimed that he is \"bad at timing\", led Berkshire from a textile mill on the verge of bankruptcy in Rodin in 1965 to a financial empire with a market value of $760 billion, with an annualized income of a staggering 20.1%.

Buffett insists there is no reason to worry about where the company will go after he leaves office, with corporate culture accounting for 99 percent of the company. \"If we had the same culture, we'd be around for another 100 years from now.\"</p><p></body></html></p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source:<a href=\"https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/iwfGW2GmOD5peXcnrbcLhw\">中国经济周刊</a></p>\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3ecc14db02762fcb82cdbb76e654301","relate_stocks":{"BRK.B":"伯克希尔B","BRK.A":"伯克希尔"},"source_url":"https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/iwfGW2GmOD5peXcnrbcLhw","is_english":false,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1189093907","content_text":"作者:邹松霖近期,在巴菲特旗下伯克希尔·哈撒韦公司2022年股东大会上,91岁的巴菲特和98岁的芒格再度搭档亮相。当被问及如何像伯克希尔那样把握投资时机时,巴菲特回答:“从来都没搞清楚怎么确定市场的时机,我们偶尔抓住些机会,不是因为我们更聪明,而是我们更理智。不要因为市场或经济的情况去买卖,而是在觉得投资对象价格便宜的时候买入。”巴菲特是这样说的,伯克希尔也是这样做的。今年以来,美股大幅下跌,美国通胀持续飙升,市场恐慌弥漫,伯克希尔却逆势加仓。一季度末,伯克希尔·哈撒韦持仓规模达到了3635.54亿美元的历史最高值。大手笔投资带来的现金消耗使一季度末伯克希尔的现金储备降到2018年第三季度以来的最低水平。更罕见的是,在去年各季度换手率保持在2%上下的伯克希尔,今年频繁调仓,换手率升至12%。当地时间2022年4月30日,美国奥马哈,伯克希尔·哈撒韦年度股东大会举行。屏幕显示“股神”巴菲特 ( 左 ) 和伯克希尔·哈撒韦副董事长芒格。石油股“能买多少买多少”北京时间5月17日,伯克希尔依照法律规定向美国证监会提交了13F表(Form 13 F),正式披露了第一季度末公司持股的具体信息。根据持仓报告,一季度伯克希尔共新进花旗银行、派拉蒙等8只股票,增持苹果、雪佛龙、动视暴雪、通用汽车等7只股票,减仓4只股票,清仓3只股票。值得注意的是,增持规模里近一半都是石油股,特别是增持西方石油(Occidental Petroleum Corporation)1.36亿股,增持雪佛龙1.2亿股。而在美股大跳水的一季度,西方石油和雪佛龙股价分别上涨了134%和 47%,并且涨势不减。西方石油公司股价今年飙升了91%,成为标准普尔500指数中表现最好的股票。在股东大会上,巴菲特曾表示:“现在美国联邦政府有上十亿桶的石油存储量。现在大家觉得,这个国家有这么多储油是好事,仔细想想其实不够多。3到5年这些储量就没了,你也不知道三五年后会怎样。”投资石油股的举措是他对油价长期上涨的押注。而在众多石油股里,巴菲特和西方石油早有“错失”的渊源。2020年巴菲特曾因西方石油沉重的负债与行业前景堪忧,清空了他所持有的西方石油股票。而2021年石油价格的平稳上涨,给予了西方石油大翻身的机会,不但经营性现金流相较2020年涨了两倍多,达到102亿美元,营收和利润也令人鼓舞。巴菲特在接受采访时表示,他阅读了西方石油公司2021年第四季度财报电话会议记录,认为CEO“在以正确的方式管理公司”,才决定购买西方石油的股份。同时,巴菲特还强调称:“对于西方石油,我们能买多少就买多少。”今年5月,伯克希尔公司又斥资5200万美元,购买了约90.2万股西方石油公司股票。再加入“价值游戏”在伯克希尔一季度新建仓的8只股票中,引起争议的是花旗银行。根据持仓报告,伯克希尔一季度清仓了持有近33年的“经典之作”富国银行,买入5500万股花旗集团的股票,价值约30亿美元。花旗银行多年来产生的回报低于同行,又在近两年面临监管问题,包括在2020 年被联邦监管机构处以4亿美元的罚款,还有因未能改善与合规、数据和风险管理相关的内部控制,收到美国货币监理署 (OCC) 的业务停止令。花旗银行近12个月股价下跌近40%,远超过银行股总体下跌幅度。2020年,新任首席执行官弗雷泽上任后,即宣布目前花旗银行正在处置旗下盈利效益不佳的亚洲零售银行业务,此后花旗在亚洲的业务将转向财富管理方面。有人认为花旗银行是个价值陷阱,也有人认为这只股“很巴菲特”:股价被低估,股息率诱人。花旗集团目前的交易价格不到其有形账面价值的 60%,年股息收益率4.3%远超过富国银行。管理层也已明确表示,今年将在可能的情况下进行适度回购。等待花旗集团的转型计划可能需要数年时间,这将是另一次“价值游戏”。坚定不移“摘苹果”巴菲特主义的一个重要基石是专注。不要过分强调多元化的重要性,也不要为了多元化而多元化。一季度末,伯克希尔十大重仓股集中度高达87.20%。其中作为“压舱石”的第一重仓股仍然是苹果公司,一季度增持之后占其股票投资组合的比例约43%。作为科技行业巨无霸,苹果公司的财务实力和盈利能力毋庸置疑。而巴菲特除了认可库克“将苹果产品的用户视为自己的初恋”的风格外,更十分激赏库克的股票回购策略。2021年伯克希尔并没有增持苹果股份,但因为苹果公司的回购和股息,让包括伯克希尔在内的投资者“不必动一根指头”就增加了收益。去年伯克希尔从苹果公司得到了惊人的7.85亿美元股息。在2016年建仓苹果之前,巴菲特给外界的印象之一是他最大的盲区是科技股,因为在少有地购入科技股IBM之后,其股价一路下跌,伯克希尔损失惨重。而买入苹果也并非巴菲特的主意。他对此的解释是“库姆斯和韦斯勒都可以在没有先咨询我的情况下,作出投资决定”。据报道,这两位目前主管伯克希尔投资的托德·库姆斯和泰德·韦斯勒,正是当巴菲特退休时将接管所有选股职责的未来舵手。一季度增持另一个科技股——动视暴雪则是巴菲特的个人决定,主要基于微软宣布收购动视暴雪的计划。巴菲特曾说,如果要在靠投飞镖选股票但不收管理费的猴子和华尔街人士里选一个,我一直都会选猴子。一直号称自己“不擅长择时”的巴菲特,带领伯克希尔从1965年位于罗丹的一家濒临破产的纺织厂,成长为市值7600亿美元的金融帝国,年化收益达到惊人的20.1%。而他也并不担心伯克希尔的未来。巴菲特坚称,没有理由担心他离任后公司何去何从,企业文化占公司的99%。“如果我们有同样的文化,我们从现在开始还会存在100年。”","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.A":0.9,"BRK.B":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":892,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
