Warren Buffett…
Is there a bigger name in the world of investing?
Don’t answer that – it was rhetorical – while there are other names on the list of famous investors…
Buffett is the name among names when it comes to making money by trading stocks.
As we head into the holiday trading doldrums – or the quiet before the storm of the New Year – it’s always a good idea to check in with the Oracle of Omaha and see what he’s been doing as we get ready to watch the markets get back into full swing…
And you’ll be shocked to see some of the moves that that this living legend has been making.
Look…
There are thousands of people who make money trading stocks – but few hold the sway that this notoriously contrarian investor wields in the palm of his hand.
It’s a sway that’s well earned over DECADES of success playing the markets and becoming one of the world’s richest men.
Anybody who says they don’t pay attention to Buffett or that that his strategies are antiquated and over the hill – is either a liar or has never made a dime trading stocks…
Because if you’re not taking cues from what this prolific trader does – then you’re going to get left behind.
Buffett’s strategies aren’t antiquated…
He adjusts them with the times – and if the Berkshire Hathaway (BRK) portfolio is any indication – he’s doing just fine in the 21st Century.
We’re coming out of one of the weirdest trading seasons we’ve ever had as a country…
The pandemic and 2020 election have the world’s head spinning – and those that trade stocks are no different.
It’s hard to tell which way is up at the moment – so it’s best to look for something stationary to get our bearings – and there is nothing more solid in the investment world than Warren Buffett.
So, while we push through the next month and a half of holiday trading doldrums (and by “doldrums” – I mean a lot of days where we’re probably not going to see a lot of movement) …
It’s the perfect time to check in with Buffett in order to get an idea as to how he sees 2021 shaping up.
There are a few things that we can see are going on in Omaha that can give us a few clues on which way we may want to start leaning.
One of the moves that Buffett made seemed to shock a lot of people…
And that was when he dropped one of the biggest pandemic money makers around – Costco (COST).
And by “dropped” – the Gorilla means DROPPED – as Berkshire Hathaway sold off its ENTIRE 4.33 million shares in the company.
Why?
Well, maybe it had something to do with the fact that its valuation to earnings forecast having a 35x difference or maybe it has more to do with the way that online purchasing is impacting the wholesale company’s business model…
Either way, he dropped them like a bad habit and doesn’t seem to be looking back.
Another move that Warren has done lately…
It seems that he’s getting back into telecom stocks.
Berkshire Hathaway spent $276 million buying 2.4 million shares of cell carrier company T-Mobile (TMUS) – which is a bit surprising – seeing as a few years ago Buffett sold everything he had in this industry.
So, what’s changed?
Well, maybe the Oracle sees big things brewing with 5G technology – and as customers (both personal and business) begin to upgrade their devices to accommodate the higher speeds…
There seems to be a lot of opportunities for growth with T-Mobile.
And the last move we should be paying attention to is the fact that Berkshire Hathaway has gone in heavy on Big Pharma.
After grabbing huge stakes in stocks like Merck (MRK), Pfizer (PFE), and Bristol Myers Squibb (BMY).
Why?
If it’s not obvious – it has everything to do with the pandemic and the focus that has been brought back to the industry.
There is a lot of room for growth as companies work on therapeutics and vaccines to stop COVID-19…
And Buffett seems to believe that one of these companies could hold the key to some BIG profits – and he’s probably right!
And there you have it…
Straight from the man himself.
You may want to look into making some of these moves yourself – as they tend to work out pretty well for Buffett…
Or you may not – as you may not like or even understand the moves he’s making.
