to spare, here are four REITs that I will allocate that money.</p><p><b>Frasers Logistics &amp; Commercial Trust (SGX: BUOU)</b></p><p>Frasers Logistics &amp; Commercial Trust, or FLCT, is an industrial and commercial REIT that owns 102 properties spread across five countries – Singapore, Australia, the UK, Germany and the Netherlands.</p><p>Its assets under management stood at S$6.7 billion as of 31 March 2022.</p><p>FLCT recently declared and paid out a distribution per unit of S$0.0385 for its fiscal 2022’s first half (1H2022) ended 31 March 2022.</p><p>The trailing 12-month

respectable set of earnings for its fiscal 2022 ended 31 March 2022 (FY2022).</p><p>Gross revenue climbed 20.9% year on year to S$678.6 million while net property income (NPI) increased by 18.6% year on year to S$592.1 million.</p><p>DPU inched up 5.5% year on year to S$0.08787, giving the units a trailing distribution yield of 5%.</p><p>MLT’s aggregate leverage stood at 36.8% with a low cost of debt of 2.2%.</p><p>The REIT also enjoys a high occupancy rate of 96.7% and also reported a 2.9% increase in its average rental reversion.</p><p>MLT has demonstrated a strong track record of acquisitions – the REIT had made a total of eight acquisitions in FY2022.</p><p>Investors can look forward to more acquisitions for FY2023 as the REIT positions itself for further

2021.</p><p>The REIT’s portfolio comprises 11 retail properties, five business parks and four logistics parks located in 12 cities within China.</p><p>For FY2021, CLCT reported a DPU of S$0.0873, giving its units a trailing distribution yield of 7.7%.</p><p>For the first quarter of 2022 (1Q2022), gross revenue jumped 24% year on year to RMB 489.9 million, driven by full contributions from business parks and new contributions from the logistics parks.</p><p>NPI improved by 30.4% year on year to RMB 344.5 million.</p><p>Gearing remains reasonable at 38.1% as of 31 March 2022 with an average cost of debt of 2.64%.</p><p>CLCT is backed by a strong sponsor in <b>CapitaLand Investment Limited</b> (SGX: 9CI), which provides an acquisition pipeline for the REIT to continue growing its AUM.</p><p>As of 31 December 2021, the sponsor owned 12 retail assets, 29 commercial and integrated developments, and eight new economy assets (read: industrial, logistics and business parks) that can potentially be injected into CLCT.</p><p><b>Keppel DC REIT (SGX: AJBU)</b></p><p>Keppel DC REIT is a data centre REIT that owns a portfolio of 21 data centres across nine countries with an AUM of S$3.5 billion as of 31 March 2022.</p><p>The REIT reported that gross revenue for 1Q2022 dipped 0.9% year on year to S$66.1 million while NPI fell by 1.4% year on year to S$60.1

Under the hood, the damage is deeper: 70% of S&amp;P 500 stocks and 85% of NASDAQ stocks are below their 200-day moving averages. A lot of pain has already happened.</p><p>There are some external factors at work here, and these may be ushering in some structural changes to global finance and economics. But still, what is happening right now is altogether simpler, and in a way, that’s comforting.</p><p>The Fed is raising rates and reducing liquidity by allowing assets on its balance sheet to roll off. Interest rates - the “cost of money” - are the fundamental market-wide variable governing how much investors are willing to pay for a company on the basis of its earnings (that is, the P/E ratio, or price-to-earnings multiple).</p><p>As interest rates rise, that number, for the stock market taken as a whole, will fall. We believe it will fall back towards historical norms; indeed, it already is doing so.

Indeed, it is actually creating opportunities to buy high-quality assets when their prices have declined to sane levels in accord with historical norms and prevailing industry conditions. Many high-quality assets will see their prices decline <i>below</i> those sane levels, presenting particularly appealing opportunities.</p><p>What’s happening is simply the result of a hangover. Extraordinary monetary policy made the financial system flush with liquidity, which was used to bid up stock prices - and in the last stages of this process, all sense of proportion, caution, and historical norms was cast aside.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/820584a96aa27afaa500c78ed0fd92b6\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"776\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Money Supply YoY Growth (M2) (Morgan Stanley Research)</span></p><p>Now the punch bowl is being taken away from the party, sirens can be heard faintly in the background, and sobriety is beginning to set in. Note the word <i>beginning.</i> Our firm has an institutional memory of the inflation-driven bear market of the 1970s.</p><p>We believe that a market-level bottom still needs to be found - simply because more pain remains to be inflicted on some industries by rising rates if the Fed is even going to <i>approach</i>making good on its stated intention to deal with inflation.

Our job is to find these opportunities before Mr. Market’s moment of sobriety.Adam Gault/OJO Images via Getty Images By Monty GuildThe damage to stocks is more evident internally than externally. On the surface, the correction has only started getting to the broad indices. Under the hood, the damage is deeper: 70% of S&P 500 stocks and 85% of NASDAQ stocks are below their 200-day moving averages. A lot of pain has already happened.There are some external factors at work here, and these may be ushering in some structural changes to global finance and economics. But still, what is happening right now is altogether simpler, and in a way, that’s comforting.The Fed is raising rates and reducing liquidity by allowing assets on its balance sheet to roll off. Interest rates - the “cost of money” - are the fundamental market-wide variable governing how much investors are willing to pay for a company on the basis of its earnings (that is, the P/E ratio, or price-to-earnings multiple).As interest rates rise, that number, for the stock market taken as a whole, will fall. We believe it will fall back towards historical norms; indeed, it already is doing so. Layer in the anticipation of decelerating earnings or a potential recession, and the price contraction is even sharper.S&P 500 NTM P/E (Author)The central message to investors is this: what is happening is not outlandish; it is normal and expected. Indeed, it is actually creating opportunities to buy high-quality assets when their prices have declined to sane levels in accord with historical norms and prevailing industry conditions. Many high-quality assets will see their prices decline below those sane levels, presenting particularly appealing opportunities.What’s happening is simply the result of a hangover. Extraordinary monetary policy made the financial system flush with liquidity, which was used to bid up stock prices - and in the last stages of this process, all sense of proportion, caution, and historical norms was cast aside.Money Supply YoY Growth (M2) (Morgan Stanley Research)Now the punch bowl is being taken away from the party, sirens can be heard faintly in the background, and sobriety is beginning to set in. Note the word beginning. Our firm has an institutional memory of the inflation-driven bear market of the 1970s.We believe that a market-level bottom still needs to be found - simply because more pain remains to be inflicted on some industries by rising rates if the Fed is even going to approachmaking good on its stated intention to deal with inflation. And while inflation is likely peaking now, we believe, as we have said for some time, that it will not return to the pre-pandemic 1-2% norm for many years.A Bear Market StrategyPatience is the watch word. The P/E chart above shows the extent to which valuations have already declined. However, it’s important to bear in mind that this is a market-wide chart, concealing wide variation among industries and individual companies about what constitutes an attractive valuation.The sharp decline in market-level valuations points out a notable characteristic of contemporary markets: the prominence of passive investing, which now comprises most of market flows, means that in a period of liquidation such as we are now experiencing, good companies will get sold off indiscriminately with bad.After the dust settles, Mr. Market will get sober and realize that certain companies were pushed down with the broad market to valuation levels too low for their fundamentals. Our job is to find these opportunities before Mr. Market’s moment of sobriety, and we are already identifying them.Innovation and Mean-ReversionThe current swoon may be setting up a once-in-a-decade opportunity.

We do not favor moving portfolios totally to cash, because we believe that there will still be tactical opportunities and worthwhile long-term defensible holds even in the midst of a general liquidation.

Consequently, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite have backtracked 15% and 24% year to date, respectively, with no end to the negativism in sight.Even big tech has struggled, with premier companies Netflix and Meta Platforms posting weaker-than-anticipated financial reports in recent quarters. The panic has sent investors swarming to value stocks and safer assets for protection, leaving the technology sector drowning in the red. But as long-term investors, this doesn't mean that we should completely ignore tech stocks for the time being.Image source: Getty Images.In fact, there are several companies that continue to deliver strong financial results in spite of the challenges our current economy presents. One of those companies, Apple, is a world-beater that can provide investors with much-needed security in today's market environment. And since it's down almost 20% year to date, the technology juggernaut grants investors a handsome valuation at present levels.A resilient businessIn the past 12 quarters, Apple has beaten earnings estimates each time, and the company has only fallen short of Wall Street's revenue forecasts once. In the second quarter of 2022, the tech leader increased both total sales and earnings per share by 9% year over year, up to $97.3 billion and $1.52, respectively. While its product category -- which includes the iPhone, iPad, and Mac -- only grew a modest 7%, the company's services segment surged 17% to $19.8 billion.For the full fiscal year 2022, analysts are forecasting Apple's top line to improve 8% to $394.2 billion and its earnings per share to increase 10% to $6.15. Investors should like where the iPhone maker is positioned today. Not only does its world-class core business offer stability on top of its persistent growth, but the company's services segment enjoys a long runway for expansion in the years ahead.Fortunately for Apple and its shareholders, the company's elite balance sheet and cash generation will comfortably facilitate growth for the tech giant in the future. The company has $28.1 billion in cash on its balance sheet, and it continues to generate funds at a red-hot pace. In the past 12 months, Apple has produced $105.8 billion in free cash flow (FCF), and its three-year FCF compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is 13%. The company's robust balance sheet and consistent cash generation provide financial flexibility to increase its dividends, buy back shares, and grow its business in the years to follow.A normalized valuationThe recent stock price pullback year to date has made Apple stock a very tempting buy. The stock carries a price-to-earnings multiple of 24 today, representing its lowest trading level since the early summer of 2020.AAPL PE Ratio data by YChartsThe tech company's current earnings multiple is also largely in line with its five-year historical average of 23. But given that Apple has been able to maintain solid growth in recent quarters -- especially compared to the rest of big tech -- investors should be thrilled about buying the stock at existing levels.Apple is a good play on the turbulent stock market todayApple is a wise investment today -- the world-leading technology company continues to expand its business at a steady rate in an economy where many of its peers are suffering from growing pains. The stock is also trading at its lowest valuation since mid-2020, supplying investors with a favorable margin of safety. If you're searching for a durable stock to combat the market's volatility today, Apple might be the choice for you.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1910,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9023276328,"gmtCreate":1652925142764,"gmtModify":1676535190523,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110026750523622","authorIdStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9023276328","repostId":"2236904997","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2603,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9023252549,"gmtCreate":1652923719981,"gmtModify":1676535190023,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110026750523622","authorIdStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9023252549","repostId":"9023220219","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9023220219,"gmtCreate":1652922600144,"gmtModify":1676535189487,"author":{"id":"3527667628464496","authorId":"3527667628464496","name":"Tiger_Newspress","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3527667628464496","authorIdStr":"3527667628464496"},"themes":[],"title":"Singapore Stocks to watch: SIA, First Reit, Delfi, IPC Corp","htmlText":"THE following companies saw new developments that may affect trading of their securities on Thursday (May 19): SIA:&nbsp;SINGAPORE Airlines clocked its third annual loss, posting a deficit of S$962 million for the financial year 2022 to March, even as it disclosed that its forward sales for the next 3 months are approaching pre-pandemic levels.

Macroeconomic headwinds continue to build, including rampant inflation, slowing economic growth, geopolitical turmoil, and Covid-19 lockdowns in Asia.We now have further uncertaintysurroundingthe stockmarket following the most recent interest rate hike. Animminent bear market is potentially on the horizon. As a result, investors are searching for alternative investment paths for diversification.Growth names that were the darlings onWall Streetduring the pandemic have not beenimmune to these challenges so far in the year. Even large-capitalization (cap) shares have come under pressure since January.Year-to-date (YTD), the S&P 500indexhas so far dropped over 13.5% year-to-date (YTD), while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100has declined more than21.5% during the same period.In the past century, we have had over 25bear marketson the Street. Most have lasted an average of less than one year. While it may be tempting to sell stocks in the portfolio to minimize losses, panic selling in a bear market often leads toloss of potential profits and even investment capital.Instead, investors need to develop a calmer and at times opportunistic perspective toward bear markets. Let’s remember that some of the strongest days in the stock market usually follow right after some of the most devastating days.A bear market can be easier to endure when you’re well-diversified and inthe marketfor the long term.With that information, here are seven strategic sectors and asset classes to hide your money in a bear market.Blue Chip StocksHealthcare StocksCommodities StocksReal Estate StocksUtility StocksCryptocurrencyArts and NFTsBear Market: Blue Chip Stocks“Blue chip stocks” are some of the precious gems of the stock market. As mostInvestorPlace.comreaders know, the term comes from poker chips where the blue chips are the most valuable ones of a three color chip set.Blue chip companies are those that you have possibly known for decades. Market caps are typically in the order of hundreds of billions of dollars. The company history goes many decades or even a hundred years. Most of the 30 stocks in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) index belong to a blue chip company.If you like dividends, then blue chips should be on your radar screen. They typically grow dividends regularly over decades.Daily swings are less of an issue in the case of blue chips. Especially due to stable dividends, most investors are reluctant to sell them when the market declines.Since most blue chips have healthy balance sheets and strong leadership, they tend to come out of hard economic times even stronger. In fact, many either buy-out or drive-out their weaker competitors.But, when we have a bear market, shares of blue chips also decline. For instance, the DJIA has lost around 10% so far in 2022. Yet, this percentage is less than those in the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100.Yet this recent drop in price has made many blue chips undervalued, creating a buying opportunity. If readers are not sure as to which specific blue chip stock to buy, they can also consider blue chip exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that hold a basket of stocks.The following names of stocks and ETFs can be considered when investing in blue chips:International Business Machines(NYSE:IBM)Pfizer(NYSE:PFE)Walmart(NYSE:WMT)T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth ETF(NYSE:TCHP)Invesco Dow Jones Industrial Average Dividend ETF(NYSE:DJD)Healthcare StocksWith growing concern about the possibility of a coming recession, many investors are turning to defensive healthcare stocks. The healthcare market tends to remain fairlyresistantto market downtowns. After all, as the past two years have shown, anyone can get sick or become injured at any time.Globally, the healthcare industry continues to grow, spurred by an aging population. We are witnessing continuous development of new medicines and treatment protocols. Worldwide spending on medicine is expected to grow to an average of over10%of global GDP by the year 2030.At the same time, Covid-19 vaccines are likely to soon find an entire new category of patients: children under 5. TheWashington Postrecently reported that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is currently considering an authorization request fromModerna(NASDAQ:MRNA) for use of its vaccine for young children. Pfizer is also expected to make a similar request soon.Healthcare stocks or ETFs could thus provide a potential safe haven for wary investors. Here are a few picks:Abbvie(NYSE:ABBV)Bio-Rad Laboratories(NYSE:BIO)Merck(NYSE:MRK)Novo Nordisk(NYSE:NVO)Thermo Fisher Scientific(NYSE:TMO)iShares Global Healthcare ETF(NYSEARCA:IXJ)Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund(NYSEARCA:XLV)Bear Market: CommoditiesAnalysts are increasingly convinced that we are at the start of a long-term structural bull market in commodities. The World Bank’s Commodity Markets Outlookreport suggests that the Russian invasion of Ukraine has changed the discourse on commodities.Changing global patterns of production, trade, and consumption could keep commodity prices at historically elevated levels by the end of 2024.Moreover, such high commodity prices shouldadd to theinflationary pressures worldwide.Energy prices are of particular interest to investors. Brent crude is currently trading ataround$100 per barrel. And theDow Jones Oil & Gas Index has soaredmore than45% year-to-date (YTD).Moreover, food commodities and fertilizers, which rely on natural gas as a production input, have also seen the largest price increases since 2008. For example, wheat prices are projected to increase by over 40%, reaching an all-time high in 2022.Another group that gets attention as a potential hedge is precious metals. Gold and silver are the traditional metals of choice. Yet, copper, platinum, palladium, nickel, and zinc are also sought by investors in times of uncertainty in the markets.Commodities not only offer an effective hedge against inflation, but they also help diversifyinvestors’portfolios due to their low correlation with stocks. Gold, for example, tends to beinversely correlatedto both stock market performance and the value of the greenback.Silver has often provided a good investment during periods of high inflation. Its value isoften tiedto its utility in certain applications in technology as well as heavy industry.The price ofgoldis up 2.1% over the past year, while the price ofsilveris down 18.2%. Meanwhile,pricesof platinum and palladium are also down year-over-year.Investors can either buy individual stocks or invest in ETFs for commodities like energy, agriculture, and metals.The following names deserve further due diligence:Archer Daniels Midland (NYSE:ADM)Barrick Gold(NYSE:GOLD)Franco-Nevada(NYSE:FNV)Newmont(NYSE:NEM)Nucor(NYSE:NUE)Rio Tinto (NYSE:RIO)BHP (NYSE:BHP)Freeport McMoRan (NYSE:FCX)SPDR S&P Metals and Mining (NYSEARCA:XME)Invesco DB Commodity Index Tracking Fund(NYSEARCA:DBC)iShares GSCI Commodity Dynamic Roll Strategy ETF(NASDAQ:COMT)Real Estate StocksInvesting in real estate is another option to protect your savings against inflation or volatile markets. It also provides consistent income over a long period.Participating in real estate investment comes in various ways. You can always buy your own private real estate, and possibly at a lower price during an economic slowdown. Of course, you’d need to have the necessary amount of money ready for the transaction. Or you could go toWall Streetto participate in the growth of real estate shares and for less capital.Stock markets offer several options to invest in real estate. These can be shares of builders and developers or Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). The latter are companies that own, buy, sell or manage real estate. REITs usually hold a diversified or specialized portfolio. In the U.S., by law, they have to distribute about90%of their income as dividends to qualify as a REIT.Retail investors can go for the shares of either individual developers or REITs. Or they can also explore ETFs that are focused on real estate.The following stocks and ETFs can be considered when investing in real estate:Avalonbay Communities(NYSE:AVB)Lennar(NYSE:LEN)VICI Properties(NYSE:VICI)Welltower(NYSE:WELL)Schwab US REIT ETF(NYSEARCA:SCHH)Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund ETF Shares(NYSEARCA:VNQ)Bear Market: Utility StocksUtilities are often regarded as the defensive and less volatile portion of an investment portfolio.They include electricity, natural gas, clean water, and sewage services. Understandable, businesses and households rely on them regardless of economic cycles.Even during a recession, consumers will, for the most part, pay their bills for power and water.As most utilities are highly regulated, effectively preventing rivals from entering the market, utility stocks are usually associated with low risk andstableinvestments.The outlook for utilities has significantly improved over the past few years. President Biden has made the renewable energy transition a key focus of his administration, setting the target for a carbon-free power industry by 2035.According to a recentreport from the International Energy Association (IEA), renewables are expected to account for almost 95% of the increase in global power capacity through 2026. As a result, we are likely to see hundreds of billions of dollars of investment flow to the utility space to achieve global decarbonization goals.Earlier in March, the Dow Jones Utility Average briefly crossed the 1,000 mark for the first time in itsnearly100-year history. It’s difficult to top utility stocks for modest but steady growth and above-average dividend yields.Against this backdrop, investors could keep the following utility stocks under their radar:Enbridge(NYSE:ENB)Dominion Energy (NYSE:D)Duke Energy (NYSE:DUK)NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE)Fidelity® MSCI Utilities Index ETF (NYSEARCA:FUTY)Utilities Select Sector SPDR® Fund (NYSEARCA:XLU)Vanguard Utilities ETF(NYSEARCA:VPU)Cryptocurrency2022 has been a tough year for the cryptocurrency market. So far in the year,Bitcoin(BTC-USD) andEthereum(ETH-USD) have declined almost 28% and 32%, respectively. Similarly, theGlobal X Blockchain ETF(NASDAQ:BKCH) has lost over half its value YTD.Analysts agree that many altcoins will not make it in the long run. Furthermore, someindividual cryptoswill likely experience even larger declinesin a prolonged bear market.However,if investor portfolios are diversified,they will be able to stay in the market, weather the storm, and capitalize onprofit opportunities. In a bear market, crypto investors should diversify their investments across large-cap market digital asset leaders, fast-growing new cryptos, non-fungible token (NFT) cryptos, decentralized finance (DeFi) coins, and stablecoins.Smart investors can potentially endure bear markets through dollar cost averaging, which involves making smallperiodicpurchases without committing to a single large purchase. Such an approach could help smooth out price volatility. As a result, investors can build a portfolio according to a time-based average price.Well-established cryptos have weathered market downturns in the past andmore thanregained theirvalues. Moreover, many altcoins are associated with critical technologies like blockchain oracles, cross-chain commerce, and consumer entertainment.As a result, those cryptos can continue to deliver financial rewards in the near future.In addition to Bitcoin and Ethereum, the following cryptos could also be of interest to readers:Avalanche(AVAX-USD)Axie Infinity(AXS-USD)Cardano(ADA-USD)Chainlink(LINK-USD)Decentraland(MANA-USD)Solana(SOL-USD)The Sandbox(SAND-USD)Those readers who are looking for potential stocks or ETF to participate in the growth of the cryptocurrency market could also consider:Coinbase Global(NASDAQ:COIN)Grayscale Future of Finance ETF(NYSE:GFOF)Invesco Alerian Galaxy Crypto Economy ETF(NYSEARCA:SATO)ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF(NYSEARCA:BITO)Bear Market: Art and NFT MarketsThe art market couldprovide an alternative path to portfolio diversification during a bear market.Furthermore, art pricesexhibita low correlation with other asset classes and may outperform the stock market duringmarket downturns.Following its biggest recession in 10 years in 2020, the global art market recovered strongly in 2021, according to the latest annualArt Basel & UBS Global Art Market Report. Aggregate sales of art and antiques by dealers and auction houses reached went over $65 billion, up by 29% from 2020.Thus, sales values have even surpassed pre-pandemic levels of 2019. This boom was primarily fueled by art investors from the U.S., with 43% of worldwide sales by value. Greater China was the second-largest art market with 20%.Art serves as a store of value during periods of high inflation. With the number of high-net-worth individuals increasing worldwide, art prices have the potential to grow tremendously. Research by Deloitte suggests thatart investing should grow by over 40% by 2026.In addition,NFTsare now widely used to represent any object considered unique or rare, including a work of art, music score, or even a book. NFTs are minted, stored, and then transferred on a blockchain. Thus they offer instant and continuous proof of authenticity and origin.There are different platforms for readers interested in buying art or NFTs. In addition, the Defiance Digital Revolution ETF(NYSEARCA:NFTZ) could be of interest to potential investors.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"ABBV":0.9,"DJD":0.9,"PFE":0.9,"TCHP":0.9,"WMT":0.9,"IBM":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":954,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9067564727,"gmtCreate":1652490380369,"gmtModify":1676535110021,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110026750523622","authorIdStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9067564727","repostId":"2235192736","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":696,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9065901231,"gmtCreate":1652137577923,"gmtModify":1676535035377,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110026750523622","authorIdStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9065901231","repostId":"2234504727","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2234504727","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1652136183,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2234504727?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-10 06:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"AMC Beats Revenue Estimates as 'Batman' Drives Box-Office Collection","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2234504727","media":"Reuters","summary":"May 9 (Reuters) - AMC Entertainment beat Wall Street expectations for first-quarter revenue on Monda","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>May 9 (Reuters) - AMC Entertainment beat Wall Street expectations for first-quarter revenue on Monday, as the release of big-ticket films such as &#34;The Batman&#34;

The so-called everything bubble, or the superbubble, is up against forces that are challenging the investing landscape, with the Fed pivoting on its \"transitory\" inflation stance last November.The shift commenced a monetary policy tightening cycle to combat price pressures, but it has continued to weigh on equities, along with a stronger dollar that is hitting earnings. Many have also warned that other industries and sectors have far exceeded fundamental value by a large margin, propped up by the Federal Reserve and the once-strong army of day traders that surfaced during the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.Futures early Monday (4:40 a.m. ET): Dow -1.26%; S&P 500 -1.48%; Nasdaq -1.71%.Commentary: \"Today in the U.S. we are in the fourth superbubble of the last hundred years,\" wrote famed fund manager Jeremy Grantham back in January. \"Even more dangerously for all of us, the equity bubble, which last year was already accompanied by extreme low interest rates and high bond prices, has now been joined by a bubble in housing and an incipient bubble in commodities. What is new this time, and only comparable to Japan in the 1980s, is the extraordinary danger of adding several bubbles together, as we see today with three and a half major asset classes bubbling simultaneously for the first time in history.\"A major selloff has plagued the Dow and S&P 500, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq has been in a bear market since March, with nearly half of the index's constituents off more than 50% below their 52-week highs.Riskier crypto markets have also taken a hit (Bitcoin prices are off also down 50% from highs) and elevated commodity prices remain subject to supply chain problems, as well as volatile supply and demand. Meanwhile, purchases of ETFs in April fell to their lowest level since the depths of the COVID crisis as inflows from institutional money and retail investors dried up.No more diamond hands: \"Yields are climbing because investors think inflation is out of control,\" said Peter Andersen, founder of investment firm Andersen Capital Management. \"A lot of these guys started trading right around COVID so their only investing experience was the wacked-out, Fed-fueled market,\" added Matthew Tuttle, CEO at Tuttle Capital Management. \"That all changed with the Fed pivot in November, but they didn't realize that because they have never seen a market that wasn’t supported by the Fed.

When China’s rising Covid-19 cases forced the electric vehicle (EV) leader to close the doors of its Shanghai gigafactory, it sparked concern. Some experts worried that the loss of production time would impede Tesla’s progress. For a while, those concerns were valid. Today, though, TSLA stock is back in focus on promising production reports out of Shanghai. One of the company’s biggest constraints may be subsiding.What’s Happening With TSLA StockTSLA stock has been rising since the beginning of the week. Why? Over the weekend, Zhang Hongtao, chief engineer of the Shanghai Economics and Information Technology Commission, addressed the company’s progress. At a press conference, he reported that Tesla production has returned to 80% of its previous output.That figure has been good for TSLA stock. With production its largest EV facility back on track, one of Tesla’s biggest barriers has likely been eliminated.Why It MattersWhile China’s lockdown policies remain mostly in place, the country has opted to let whitelisted companies resume production. Tesla is on this list, and competitors such as Volkswagen(OTCMKTS:VWAGY) have also returned to building cars at their China bases.The fact that Tesla has managed to get production close to pre-shutdown levels in just a few weeks should remind investors of its ability to keep moving forward.During Tesla’s recent earnings call, Elon Musk promised that the company’s Shanghai operations would be “coming backwith a vengeance.”His company is already delivering on that promise and it is poised to expand these efforts.Tesla is planning to build a new facility next to the Shanghai gigafactory, creating “the world’s largest vehicle export hub.”StreetInsiderreports that this new factory would be able to turn out 450,000 EVs per year. With the first stage of construction completed, the plant will begin producing Tesla Model 3 and Model Ys.Of course, the Shanghai shutdowns were not Tesla’s only constraint. Supply chain concerns still remain a problem for all EV producers. However, they haven’t stopped Tesla from keeping pace with demand yet. And Musk is helping position the company to stay ahead of its competitors through its recently announced battery progress. All signs point to Tesla seeing smoother roads ahead as it moves forward in the EV race, particularly with production in China set to increase by such significant margins.What Comes NextAs The Guardian reported late in 2021, “China is the world’s biggest market for EVs with total sales of1.3mvehicles last year, more than 40% of sales worldwide.” Demand throughout the country is only rising as the energy crisis inadvertently steers consumers toward EV purchases and Tesla is still the best positioned manufacturer to provide them. The newly expanded Shanghai plant is exactly what the company needs to dominate China’s EV market.Now that the Shanghai gigafactory is demonstrating quick progress and getting to scale even more, investors can rest assured that Tesla’s share of China’s booming market will help elevate TSLA stock.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TSLA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":699,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9061603368,"gmtCreate":1651619808120,"gmtModify":1676534935075,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110026750523622","authorIdStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Like]&nbsp;","listText":"[Like]&nbsp;","text":"[Like]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9061603368","repostId":"2232095511","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1071,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9063936331,"gmtCreate":1651381989812,"gmtModify":1676534899288,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4110026750523622","authorIdStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Like]&nbsp;","listText":"[Like]&nbsp;","text":"[Like]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9063936331","repostId":"1102313596","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1102313596","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1651364553,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102313596?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-01 08:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Full Recap of Berkshire Hathaway’s Annual Shareholders Meeting Saturday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102313596","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.</p><p>Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway’s first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market’s turned into a “gambling parlor.”</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made. Buffett had previously said that inflation “swindles” equity investors, but noted Saturday that it “swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.”</p><p>Buffett and his longtime partner, Vice Chairman Charlie Munger, fielded shareholder questions on a broad range of issues for hours.</p><p>Buffett also said that Berkshire had been increasing its stake in Activision Blizzard as part of a merger arbitrage bet that Microsoft’s proposed deal to buy the video game company will close. Additionally, Berkshire revealed it had ramped up its stock bets by more than $51 billion during the first quarter amid the broader market’s downturn.</p><p>Buffett also stressed the importance of cash as “new forms of money” like bitcoin pop up.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill. “That’s what money is.”</p><p>Check out full recap below for more from the two investing legends.</p><h3><b>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion of stocks during Q1′s market rout</b></h3><p>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion worth of stocks during the first quarter’s market turmoil, including sizable investments in Chevron, HP and Occidental. The buying at the start of the year marked a sharp reversal from 2021 that saw $7.4 billion of net sales in stocks.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 suffered a 5% sell-off in the first quarter, posting its worst quarter since the start of the pandemic. The rout continued in April with the equity benchmark down another 8.8% amid fears of surging inflation and rising rates.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire is “better than the banks”</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett has a long history of teasing investment bankers and their institutions – saying that they encourage mergers and spinoffs to reap fees, rather than improve companies.</p><p>Today, he noted that Berkshire Hathaway would always be cash-rich, and in times of need, would be “better than the banks” at extending credit lines to companies in need. While Buffett was talking, someone was shouting from the crowd in the CHI Center. It was unclear what the audience member was said.</p><p>“Was that a banker screaming?” Buffett joked.</p><h3><b>Buffett warns shareholders about “new forms of money” and the importance of cash</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett warned shareholders about “new forms of money” as he recalled the financial crisis of 2008 and said Berkshire Hathaway will “always have a lot of cash on hand.”</p><p>Buffett did not explicitly identify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, though he has made headlines for calling bitcoin “rat poison” in the past and has said it has no unique value. Charlie Munger has also spoken with hostility about it.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill.</p><p>“That’s what money is,” he added. “It may turn out that it becomes worth dramatically less at purchasing power. It can become almost like paper money as it has in many countries. But that when people tell you that they’re reaching [for] new forms of money, this is the only thing that will pay bills.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire put money to work after finding ‘little exciting’ in the market</b></h3><p>In his annual chairman letter to shareholders in February, Warren Buffett said there is “little that excites us” in the market. But soon after, he put Berkshire’s money to work.</p><p>Berkshire at the beginning of March revealed a big stake in oil giant Occidental Petroleum. At the beginning of April, Berkshire announced a major stake in tech hardware stock HP. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing revealed the company significantly increased its bet on Chevron.</p><p>“We found some things we prefer to owning Treasury bills,” quipped Berkshire vice chairman and Buffett’s right-hand man Charlie Munger.</p><h3><b>Buffett on his massive Occidental investment</b></h3><p>Buffett scooped up 14% of oil giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, worth more than $7 billion, in two weeks during March.</p><p>He pointed out that the stake was even larger when accounting for the index fund providers who own a huge chunk of the company.</p><p>“That’s not investment. You’re not buying from [investors]. I find it just incredible. You couldn’t do that with Berkshire. ... Overwhelmingly, large companies in America, they became poker chips,” Buffett said.</p><p>“That enabled us, in a two-week period, to buy 14% of a business that’s been around for decades,” Buffett said. “Imagine trying to [buy] 14% of the farms in this country. 14% of the apartment houses. 14% of the auto dealerships, or just anything, when already 40% were locked up some other place. It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”</p><p>The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.</p><h3><b>Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflation</b></h3><p>Ahead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.</p><p>One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.</p><p>Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.</p><p>“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stop</b></h3><p>Buffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.</p><p>“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”</p><p>Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.</p><p>The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.</p><p>“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has &#34;so much trouble&#34; finding businesses to invest in</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.</p><p>“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”</p><p>Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.</p><p>“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Munger says today’s stock market &#34;almost a mania of speculation&#34;</b></h3><p>Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”</p><p>His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.</p><p>“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.</p><p>“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.</p><p>After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.</p><p>“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”</p><h3><b>Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEO</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.</p><p>“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.</p><p>“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”</p><p>The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.</p><p>“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.</p><p>“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.</p><p>“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.</p><p>“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”</p><p>Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has never been &#34;good at timing&#34;</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.</p><p>“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.</p><p>“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do. We don’t know,” he continued.</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha said he often gets misplaced credit for the stock winners he’s picked over the years, pointing out he’s also missed out on some big opportunities as well. Buffett said he failed to make some big purchases in the early days of the pandemic. In a single day in March 2020, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 12.9%,its worst day since 1987.</p><p>Instead, Buffett adheres to a value investing strategy, or picking stocks with attractive valuations, instead of focusing on the vagaries of the stock market.</p><p>“We have not been good at timing,” Buffett said. “We’ve been reasonably good at figuring out when we were getting enough for our money. And we had no idea when we bought anything, but we always hoped it would the down for a while so we could buy more. ... I mean, that stuff, you could you could learn in fourth grade.”</p><h3><b>Munger says &#34;just say no&#34; to putting bitcoin in your retirement account</b></h3><p>Charlie Munger is still down on bitcoin.</p><p>He responded to an audience member question asking what single stock they would invest in given how high inflation has been rising.</p><p>The Berkshire executives didn’t say where they would put their money, but Munger was clear about where he wouldn’t invest: bitcoin.</p><p>“When you have your own retirement account, and your friendly adviser suggests you put all the money in into bitcoin, just say no,” he said.</p><p>Munger’s answer was a thinly veiled reference tobig news from Fidelity this week, which will now allow employees to putbitcoininto their employee-sponsored retirement accounts.</p><p>Munger and Buffett have both long been critics of bitcoin, which has become increasingly attractive to certain investors for its potential as an inflation hedge.</p><h3><b>Buffett describes his start to investing when he was 11 years old</b></h3><p>A trip to the New York Stock Exchange when he was 9 years old was inspiring for Warren Buffett, who is known to have started investing when he was 11 years old.</p><p>“I went to the New York Stock Exchange, I was in awe of it,” Buffett said. “I got very interested in technical analysis and charted stocks and did all kinds of crazy things, did hours and hours and hours and saved money to buy other stocks and tried shorting. I just did everything.”</p><p>The investor bought a stock at 11 after spending his childhood reading books on the subject from the library and in his father’s office. He said his approach to investing later changed completely when he was 19 or 20 years old after reading one particular book passage in what he said must have been Benjamin Graham’s “The Intelligent Investor.”</p><p>“I looked at this book and I saw one paragraph and it told me I’ve been doing everything wrong. I just had the whole approach wrong,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants to make it clear he’s not the only one picking stocks at Berkshire Hathaway</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett wants to make it clear that he’s not the only one at Berkshire Hathaway picking stocks.</p><p>“I see headlines in papers just time after time after time that say, ‘Buffett’s buying such and such,’” Buffett said. “I’m not buying such and such. Berkshire Hathaway is buying.”</p><p>The investor said a stock pick may have been made by other finance professionals in his organization without Buffett’s ever having heard of it.</p><p>“But the headline will attract more people if it says Buffett buying this than if it says Berkshire Hathaway, and we don’t know whether it is the people that work for him, the headline is designed to bring people into the story,” Buffett said.</p><p>“The easiest thing to do is basically shut up and not have a bunch of people facing consequences they didn’t ask for in the first place,” he said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says inflation ‘swindles almost everybody’</b></h3><p>When asked about his previous comments that inflation “swindles” equity investors, Buffett said the damage from rising prices was much broader than that.</p><p>“Inflation swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody,” he said.</p><p>Buffett pointed out that inflation also raises the amount of capital that companies need to have and that it isn’t as simple as raising prices to maintain inflation-adjusted profits.</p><p>The Berkshire Hathaway CEO cautioned against listening to people who claim to be able to predict the path of inflation.</p><p>“The question is how much ... and the answer is nobody knows,” Buffett said.</p><p>Buffett reiterated that the best protection against the inflation is investing in your own skills.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire now owns 9.5% of Activision Blizzard</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway has been increasing its stake inActivision Blizzardin a merger arbitrage bet thatMicrosoft’sproposed acquisition of the video game company will close.</p><p>In the fourth quarter of 2021, Berkshire first purchased about $1 billion worth of Activision Blizzard stock, in a bet the company was undervalued. Buffett has saidBerkshire “had no prior knowledge”of Microsoft’s plan to buy the company when Berkshire made its initial investment.</p><p>In January, Microsoftannounced intentions to buy Activisionfor $95 per share. Its stock closed at $75.60 per share on Friday.</p><p>Buffett said he has been buying more shares of Activision since the deal was announced as the stock is trading way below Microsoft’s offer. Buying at these levels will yield a bigger return if the deal closes.</p><p>Buffett said Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision. “If we went over 10%, we would file a report,” he said.</p><p>“If the deal goes through, we make some money, and if the deal doesn’t go through, who knows what happens,” Buffett said.</p><p>“We don’t know what the Justice Department will do, we don’t know what the E.U. will do, we don’t know what 30 other jurisdictions will do. One thing we do know is that Microsoft has the money,” Buffett added.</p><h3><b>Buffett: ‘I look at Berkshire as a painting’</b></h3><p>The possibilities for Berkshire Hathaway are endless in the eyes of Warren Buffett, who likened the company to a work of art.</p><p>“I look at Berkshire as a painting,” Buffett said. “It’s unlimited in size; it’s got an ever-expanding canvas, and I get to paint what I want.”</p><p>Buffett did acknowledge that he doesn’t know much about art, but added that “other people look at paintings and they see something, then they’ll see something additional later on, and they really have a different sort of perception in relation to that. To me, Berkshire is a painting, and I get to paint.”</p><p>“It’s in my head, and I see different things in it as I go along,” Buffett said. “It’s satisfying.”</p><h3><b>Buffett calls Jerome Powell a hero</b></h3><p>In addressing a question about inflation, Buffett talked about the massive stimulus during the pandemic as a key reason for the rising prices now.</p><p>“You print loads of money, and money is going to be worth less,” Buffett said.</p><p>However, he did not criticize the Federal Reserve for its actions to boost money supply and stabilize markets during the health crisis.</p><p>“In my book,Jay Powellis a hero. It’s very simple. He did what he had to do,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says people are becoming more tribal</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said people are becoming more tribal.</p><p>“My general assumption — there’s no way to prove it — but essentially, people are now behaving somewhat more tribal than they have for a long time,” Buffett said.</p><p>“It’s fun to participate in, but it can get very dangerous when people say two plus two is five and the other says two plus two is three, you know, and they’re gonna give you those answers,” he continued.</p><p>The investor said the country seems as tribal as it appeared during the 1930s when public sentiment was split in the U.S. around Franklin Roosevelt. Buffett said he was raised in a household where he and his siblings weren’t served dessert until they “said something nasty” about Roosevelt.</p><p>“I don’t think it’s a good development for society,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he won’t buy bitcoin because ‘it doesn’t produce anything’</b></h3><p>Warren Buffettreiterated his skepticism of bitcoin on Saturday, saying he would be unwilling to buy it for even extremely low prices because it produces nothing of value.</p><p>“Whether it goes up or down in the next year, or five or 10 years, I don’t know. But the one thing I’m pretty sure of is that it doesn’t produce anything,” Buffett said. “It’s got a magic to it and people have attached magics to lots of things.”</p><p>Buffett listed farmland, apartment buildings — and even art — as assets that had more tangible value than bitcoin.</p><p>“Assets, to have value, have to deliver something to somebody. And there’s only one currency that’s accepted. You can come up with all kinds of things. We can put up Berkshire coins, put up Berkshire money but in the end, this is money,” he said, holding up a $20 bill. “And there’s no reason in the world why the United States government … is going to let Berkshire money replace theirs.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s business meeting concludes with shareholder votes</b></h3><p>Berkshire’s formal business meeting followed nearly five hours of Q&amp;A with Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. Shareholders voted on a number of proposals at the meeting.</p><p>The proposal that garnered most attention was from the non-profit National Legal and Policy Center. It calls for the company to strip Buffett of his chairman role. Shareholders voted down the proposal backed by CALPERS, the largest U.S. public pension fund.</p><p>Brunel Pension requested the board of Berkshire to publish an annual assessment addressing how the company manages physical and transitional climate-related risks. The number of votes against the motion outnumbered the ones for it.</p><p>One shareholder also took issue with Berkshire’s climate change initiative. The proposal called for Berkshire to issue a report addressing if and how it intends to measure, disclose, and reduce the GHG emissions associated in alignment with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal, requiring net zero emissions. Shareholders voted it down.</p><p>The last proposal asked Berkshire to report to shareholders on the outcomes of their diversity, equity and inclusion efforts by publishing quantitative data on workforce composition and recruitment, retention, and promotion rates of employees by gender, race, and ethnicity. The motion also failed.</p><p></p></body></html>","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>Full Recap of Berkshire Hathaway’s Annual Shareholders Meeting Saturday</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: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\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\">\nFull Recap of Berkshire Hathaway’s Annual Shareholders Meeting Saturday\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1079075236\">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Tiger Newspress </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2022-05-01 08:22</p>\n</div>\n\n</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.</p><p>Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway’s first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market’s turned into a “gambling parlor.”</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made. Buffett had previously said that inflation “swindles” equity investors, but noted Saturday that it “swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.”</p><p>Buffett and his longtime partner, Vice Chairman Charlie Munger, fielded shareholder questions on a broad range of issues for hours.</p><p>Buffett also said that Berkshire had been increasing its stake in Activision Blizzard as part of a merger arbitrage bet that Microsoft’s proposed deal to buy the video game company will close. Additionally, Berkshire revealed it had ramped up its stock bets by more than $51 billion during the first quarter amid the broader market’s downturn.</p><p>Buffett also stressed the importance of cash as “new forms of money” like bitcoin pop up.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill. “That’s what money is.”</p><p>Check out full recap below for more from the two investing legends.</p><h3><b>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion of stocks during Q1′s market rout</b></h3><p>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion worth of stocks during the first quarter’s market turmoil, including sizable investments in Chevron, HP and Occidental. The buying at the start of the year marked a sharp reversal from 2021 that saw $7.4 billion of net sales in stocks.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 suffered a 5% sell-off in the first quarter, posting its worst quarter since the start of the pandemic. The rout continued in April with the equity benchmark down another 8.8% amid fears of surging inflation and rising rates.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire is “better than the banks”</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett has a long history of teasing investment bankers and their institutions – saying that they encourage mergers and spinoffs to reap fees, rather than improve companies.</p><p>Today, he noted that Berkshire Hathaway would always be cash-rich, and in times of need, would be “better than the banks” at extending credit lines to companies in need. While Buffett was talking, someone was shouting from the crowd in the CHI Center. It was unclear what the audience member was said.</p><p>“Was that a banker screaming?” Buffett joked.</p><h3><b>Buffett warns shareholders about “new forms of money” and the importance of cash</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett warned shareholders about “new forms of money” as he recalled the financial crisis of 2008 and said Berkshire Hathaway will “always have a lot of cash on hand.”</p><p>Buffett did not explicitly identify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, though he has made headlines for calling bitcoin “rat poison” in the past and has said it has no unique value. Charlie Munger has also spoken with hostility about it.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill.</p><p>“That’s what money is,” he added. “It may turn out that it becomes worth dramatically less at purchasing power. It can become almost like paper money as it has in many countries. But that when people tell you that they’re reaching [for] new forms of money, this is the only thing that will pay bills.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire put money to work after finding ‘little exciting’ in the market</b></h3><p>In his annual chairman letter to shareholders in February, Warren Buffett said there is “little that excites us” in the market. But soon after, he put Berkshire’s money to work.</p><p>Berkshire at the beginning of March revealed a big stake in oil giant Occidental Petroleum. At the beginning of April, Berkshire announced a major stake in tech hardware stock HP. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing revealed the company significantly increased its bet on Chevron.</p><p>“We found some things we prefer to owning Treasury bills,” quipped Berkshire vice chairman and Buffett’s right-hand man Charlie Munger.</p><h3><b>Buffett on his massive Occidental investment</b></h3><p>Buffett scooped up 14% of oil giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, worth more than $7 billion, in two weeks during March.</p><p>He pointed out that the stake was even larger when accounting for the index fund providers who own a huge chunk of the company.</p><p>“That’s not investment. You’re not buying from [investors]. I find it just incredible. You couldn’t do that with Berkshire. ... Overwhelmingly, large companies in America, they became poker chips,” Buffett said.</p><p>“That enabled us, in a two-week period, to buy 14% of a business that’s been around for decades,” Buffett said. “Imagine trying to [buy] 14% of the farms in this country. 14% of the apartment houses. 14% of the auto dealerships, or just anything, when already 40% were locked up some other place. It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”</p><p>The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.</p><h3><b>Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflation</b></h3><p>Ahead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.</p><p>One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.</p><p>Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.</p><p>“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stop</b></h3><p>Buffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.</p><p>“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”</p><p>Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.</p><p>The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.</p><p>“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has &#34;so much trouble&#34; finding businesses to invest in</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.</p><p>“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”</p><p>Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.</p><p>“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Munger says today’s stock market &#34;almost a mania of speculation&#34;</b></h3><p>Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”</p><p>His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.</p><p>“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.</p><p>“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.</p><p>After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.</p><p>“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”</p><h3><b>Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEO</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.</p><p>“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.</p><p>“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”</p><p>The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.</p><p>“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.</p><p>“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.</p><p>“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.</p><p>“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”</p><p>Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has never been &#34;good at timing&#34;</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.</p><p>“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.</p><p>“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do.

Buffett had previously said that inflation “swindles” equity investors, but noted Saturday that it “swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.”Buffett and his longtime partner, Vice Chairman Charlie Munger, fielded shareholder questions on a broad range of issues for hours.Buffett also said that Berkshire had been increasing its stake in Activision Blizzard as part of a merger arbitrage bet that Microsoft’s proposed deal to buy the video game company will close. Additionally, Berkshire revealed it had ramped up its stock bets by more than $51 billion during the first quarter amid the broader market’s downturn.Buffett also stressed the importance of cash as “new forms of money” like bitcoin pop up.“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill. “That’s what money is.”Check out full recap below for more from the two investing legends.Berkshire bought more than $51 billion of stocks during Q1′s market routBerkshire bought more than $51 billion worth of stocks during the first quarter’s market turmoil, including sizable investments in Chevron, HP and Occidental. The buying at the start of the year marked a sharp reversal from 2021 that saw $7.4 billion of net sales in stocks.The S&P 500 suffered a 5% sell-off in the first quarter, posting its worst quarter since the start of the pandemic. The rout continued in April with the equity benchmark down another 8.8% amid fears of surging inflation and rising rates.Buffett says Berkshire is “better than the banks”Warren Buffett has a long history of teasing investment bankers and their institutions – saying that they encourage mergers and spinoffs to reap fees, rather than improve companies.Today, he noted that Berkshire Hathaway would always be cash-rich, and in times of need, would be “better than the banks” at extending credit lines to companies in need. While Buffett was talking, someone was shouting from the crowd in the CHI Center. It was unclear what the audience member was said.“Was that a banker screaming?” Buffett joked.Buffett warns shareholders about “new forms of money” and the importance of cashWarren Buffett warned shareholders about “new forms of money” as he recalled the financial crisis of 2008 and said Berkshire Hathaway will “always have a lot of cash on hand.”Buffett did not explicitly identify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, though he has made headlines for calling bitcoin “rat poison” in the past and has said it has no unique value. Charlie Munger has also spoken with hostility about it.“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill.“That’s what money is,” he added. “It may turn out that it becomes worth dramatically less at purchasing power. It can become almost like paper money as it has in many countries. But that when people tell you that they’re reaching [for] new forms of money, this is the only thing that will pay bills.”Berkshire put money to work after finding ‘little exciting’ in the marketIn his annual chairman letter to shareholders in February, Warren Buffett said there is “little that excites us” in the market. But soon after, he put Berkshire’s money to work.Berkshire at the beginning of March revealed a big stake in oil giant Occidental Petroleum. At the beginning of April, Berkshire announced a major stake in tech hardware stock HP. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing revealed the company significantly increased its bet on Chevron.“We found some things we prefer to owning Treasury bills,” quipped Berkshire vice chairman and Buffett’s right-hand man Charlie Munger.Buffett on his massive Occidental investmentBuffett scooped up 14% of oil giant Occidental Petroleum, worth more than $7 billion, in two weeks during March.He pointed out that the stake was even larger when accounting for the index fund providers who own a huge chunk of the company.“That’s not investment. You’re not buying from [investors]. I find it just incredible. You couldn’t do that with Berkshire. ... Overwhelmingly, large companies in America, they became poker chips,” Buffett said.“That enabled us, in a two-week period, to buy 14% of a business that’s been around for decades,” Buffett said. “Imagine trying to [buy] 14% of the farms in this country. 14% of the apartment houses. 14% of the auto dealerships, or just anything, when already 40% were locked up some other place. It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflationAhead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stopBuffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”Buffett says he has \"so much trouble\" finding businesses to invest inWarren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.Munger says today’s stock market \"almost a mania of speculation\"Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEOBerkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival ProgressiveBerkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.Buffett says he has never been \"good at timing\"Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do. We don’t know,” he continued.The Oracle of Omaha said he often gets misplaced credit for the stock winners he’s picked over the years, pointing out he’s also missed out on some big opportunities as well. Buffett said he failed to make some big purchases in the early days of the pandemic. In a single day in March 2020, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 12.9%,its worst day since 1987.Instead, Buffett adheres to a value investing strategy, or picking stocks with attractive valuations, instead of focusing on the vagaries of the stock market.“We have not been good at timing,” Buffett said. “We’ve been reasonably good at figuring out when we were getting enough for our money. And we had no idea when we bought anything, but we always hoped it would the down for a while so we could buy more. ... I mean, that stuff, you could you could learn in fourth grade.”Munger says \"just say no\" to putting bitcoin in your retirement accountCharlie Munger is still down on bitcoin.He responded to an audience member question asking what single stock they would invest in given how high inflation has been rising.The Berkshire executives didn’t say where they would put their money, but Munger was clear about where he wouldn’t invest: bitcoin.“When you have your own retirement account, and your friendly adviser suggests you put all the money in into bitcoin, just say no,” he said.Munger’s answer was a thinly veiled reference tobig news from Fidelity this week, which will now allow employees to putbitcoininto their employee-sponsored retirement accounts.Munger and Buffett have both long been critics of bitcoin, which has become increasingly attractive to certain investors for its potential as an inflation hedge.Buffett describes his start to investing when he was 11 years oldA trip to the New York Stock Exchange when he was 9 years old was inspiring for Warren Buffett, who is known to have started investing when he was 11 years old.“I went to the New York Stock Exchange, I was in awe of it,” Buffett said. “I got very interested in technical analysis and charted stocks and did all kinds of crazy things, did hours and hours and hours and saved money to buy other stocks and tried shorting.

It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress.

The motion also failed.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.A":0.9,"BRK.B":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1206,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9902380590,"gmtCreate":1659654287213,"gmtModify":1705405402861,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9902380590","repostId":"2257013357","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2187,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9037043652,"gmtCreate":1647996106887,"gmtModify":1676534290417,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a>[Love]&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a>[Love]&nbsp;","text":"$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$[Love]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":14,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9037043652","repostId":"2221995490","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2221995490","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1647992670,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2221995490?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-23 07:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla in Right Place at Right Time as Stock Investors Look Past Risk","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2221995490","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"A rally in Tesla Inc. on Tuesday shows how eager investors are to look past a litany of risks -- from war in Ukraine to rising interest rates to slowing growth -- and bet on stock market winners.Tesla","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>A rally in Tesla Inc. on Tuesday shows how eager investors are to look past a litany of risks -- from war in Ukraine to rising interest rates to slowing growth -- and bet on stock market winners.</p><p>Tesla shares surged 7.9% for their best day since Jan. 31, helping to make the consumer discretionary sector by far the biggest gainer in the S&amp;P 500 Index, rising 2.5% compared with an increase of 1.1% in the broader benchmark.

Warren Buffett addressed the company’s massive stock purchases in the first quarter, the performance of its collection of businesses, and added his signature folksy anecdotes and life advice.</p><p>Tens of thousands of Buffett devoteeswere back in Omaha to hear fromthe legendary investorand Berkshire Hathaway (ticker: BRK.A, BRK.B) CEO, scoop up discounts at a shareholder-only shopping day, and swap stories of their experiences following Berkshire over the years.</p><h3><b>Warren Buffett says inflation &#34;swindles almost everybody&#34;</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.</p><p>Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market&#39;s turned into a &#34;gambling parlor.&#34;</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made. Buffett had previously said that inflation &#34;swindles&#34; equity investors, but noted Saturday that it &#34;swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.&#34;</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s first-quarter results</b></h3><p>Buffett proceeded with an overview of Berkshire’s first-quarter financial results, which were released on Saturday morning. Operating earnings after taxes rose less than 1% from the year-earlier period, to about $7 billion. The company reduced the pace of its stock buybacks, but Berkshire was active in purchasing other companies’ shares.</p><p>Berkshire spent $3.2 billion on share repurchases in the first quarter, and bought $51.9 billion in other equities. The company also sold $10.3 billion worth of non-Berkshire shares. Berkshire ended the period with $102.7 billion in cash and U.S. Treasury bills.</p><p>“We will always have a lot of cash on hand,” Buffett said.</p><p>A question addressed the performance of Berkshire’s Geico and BNSF Railway subsidiaries relative to competitors. Buffett kicked it over to Jain, who oversees Berkshire’s insurance operations, and Abel, who oversees non-insurance operations.</p><p>Jain admitted that lately Progressive (PGR) has done better than Geico in terms of its profit margin and growth rate. He attributed that to the Berkshire subsidiary’s later entry into telematics, or usage-based insurance, which adjusts customers’ rates based on how they drive. Progressive has years of additional data and experience in the business, but Jain said that Geico was seeing promising early results from its telematics policies, branded as DriveEasy.</p><p>Abel defended the approach of BNSF, which hasn’t been able to embrace precision-scheduled railroading as much of the railroad industry has.</p><h3><b>Berkshire is buying other companies’ stocks again</b></h3><p>The first question of the meeting was about Berkshire quickly becoming more active in the stock market. In Buffett’s 2021 annual shareholder letter, dated Feb. 26, he wrote that there were few attractive opportunities out there. Since then, Berkshire struck a deal to acquire insurer Alleghany (Y) for $11.6 billion, and scooped up billions of dollars of shares of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVX\">Chevron</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HPQ\">HP</a>.</p><p>Asked what changed, Munger said: “We found some things we preferred owning to Treasury bills.” Buffett added, “As usual, Charlie has given the full answer, but I’ll still talk more and say less.”</p><p>Buffett explained that Occidental’s capital-return plans and higher oil prices in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine made the stock a buy, and that Alleghany was a natural fit for Berkshire’s insurance operations.</p><p>Buffett also said that Berkshire bought additional Apple stock in the first quarter. The company owned about 911 million shares of the iPhone maker at the end of March, versus 907.6 million at the end of 2021.</p><p>In February, Berkshire said that it owned about 14.7 million shares of Activision Blizzard (ATVI), which were acquired in October and November 2021. On Saturday, Buffett said that Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision, or some 74 million shares—which were worth about $5.6 billion at Friday’s close. Microsoft (MSFT) has agreed to purchase the video-game developer for $95 per share, while shares have been trading in the high $70s and low $80s in recent months. Buffett expects the deal to go through—and for that gap to close.</p><h3><b>Berkshire isn’t buying back as much stock</b></h3><p>Berkshire spent $3.2 billion on share repurchases in the first quarter, down from $6.9 billion in the fourth quarter and $27 billion for all of 2021. Buffett and Munger repurchase shares when they determine that their price is below Berkshire’s intrinsic value.</p><p>Buffett nonetheless extolled the virtues of stock buybacks for shareholders, pointing out that Berkshire’s stake in American Express had grown to about 20%, from 11%, over the years—without Berkshire buying any additional stock.</p><p>“Imagine you owned a farm and had 640 acres, farmed it every year, made a little money on it, enjoyed farming, and somehow 20 years later it turned into 1,100 or 1,200 acres,” Buffett said. “If you do it at the right price, there’s nothing better than buying back part of your own business.”</p><h3><b>Buffett isn’t trying to predict future inflation</b></h3><p>“It’s extraordinary how much [inflation] we’ve seen,” Buffett said, referring to increasing prices at Nebraska Furniture Mart and other Berkshire subsidiaries.</p><p>Buffett believes that the best defense against inflation is to be skilled at what you do, and to produce a good or service that will remain in demand which people will be willing to pay for.</p><p>“The best protection against inflation is your own personal earning power…No one can take your talent away from you,” Buffett said. “If you do something valuable and good for society, it doesn’t matter what the U.S. dollar does.”</p><p>Buffett said that predicting future inflation is a fool’s game, and that no one can really know how much inflation there will be over the next 10 years, or 12 months, or four weeks. “Inflation swindles almost everybody,” Buffett said, whether they are a stock investor, a bond investor, or a “cash-under-the-mattress person.”</p><h3><b>Warren Buffett rips Wall Street for turning the stock market into ‘a gambling parlor’</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett lambasted Wall Street for encouraging speculative behavior in the stock market, effectively turning it into a “gambling parlor.”</p><p>Buffett, 91, spoke at length during his annual shareholder meeting Saturday about one of his favorite targets for criticism: investment banks and brokerages.</p><p>“Wall Street makes money, one way or another, catching the crumbs that fall off the table of capitalism,” Buffett said. “They don’t make money unless people do things, and they get a piece of them. They make a lot more money when people are gambling than when they are investing.”</p><h3><b>Corporations shouldn’t take political positions, Buffett believes</b></h3><p>The first question of the afternoon session had to do with companies engaging in the political realm—and whether they should take official stances on controversial issues.</p><p>“I don’t put my citizenship in a blind trust when I take the job as CEO of Berkshire,” Buffett said. “But I’ve also learned that you can make a whole lot more people sustainably mad, than temporarily happy, on a variety of subjects.”</p><p>People who get upset may take it out on Berkshire’s subsidiaries and employees, Buffett noted, which isn’t fair to those workers. “I’ve come to the conclusion that the answer is ‘No,&#39;” Buffett said.</p><p>Berkshire stock has climbed about 7% so far this year, versus a 13% decline for the S&amp;P 500.</p><h3><b>Buffett gives his most expansive explanation for why he doesn’t believe in bitcoin</b></h3><p>Bitcoin has steadily been gaining acceptance from the traditional finance and investment world in recent years but Warren Buffett is sticking to his skeptical stance onbitcoin.</p><p>He said at the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholder meeting Saturday that it’s not a productive asset and it doesn’t produce anything tangible.

Warren Buffett addressed the company’s massive stock purchases in the first quarter, the performance of its collection of businesses, and added his signature folksy anecdotes and life advice.</p><p>Tens of thousands of Buffett devoteeswere back in Omaha to hear fromthe legendary investorand Berkshire Hathaway (ticker: BRK.A, BRK.B) CEO, scoop up discounts at a shareholder-only shopping day, and swap stories of their experiences following Berkshire over the years.</p><h3><b>Warren Buffett says inflation &#34;swindles almost everybody&#34;</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.</p><p>Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market&#39;s turned into a &#34;gambling parlor.&#34;</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made. Buffett had previously said that inflation &#34;swindles&#34; equity investors, but noted Saturday that it &#34;swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.&#34;</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s first-quarter results</b></h3><p>Buffett proceeded with an overview of Berkshire’s first-quarter financial results, which were released on Saturday morning. Operating earnings after taxes rose less than 1% from the year-earlier period, to about $7 billion. The company reduced the pace of its stock buybacks, but Berkshire was active in purchasing other companies’ shares.</p><p>Berkshire spent $3.2 billion on share repurchases in the first quarter, and bought $51.9 billion in other equities. The company also sold $10.3 billion worth of non-Berkshire shares. Berkshire ended the period with $102.7 billion in cash and U.S. Treasury bills.</p><p>“We will always have a lot of cash on hand,” Buffett said.</p><p>A question addressed the performance of Berkshire’s Geico and BNSF Railway subsidiaries relative to competitors. Buffett kicked it over to Jain, who oversees Berkshire’s insurance operations, and Abel, who oversees non-insurance operations.</p><p>Jain admitted that lately Progressive (PGR) has done better than Geico in terms of its profit margin and growth rate. He attributed that to the Berkshire subsidiary’s later entry into telematics, or usage-based insurance, which adjusts customers’ rates based on how they drive. Progressive has years of additional data and experience in the business, but Jain said that Geico was seeing promising early results from its telematics policies, branded as DriveEasy.</p><p>Abel defended the approach of BNSF, which hasn’t been able to embrace precision-scheduled railroading as much of the railroad industry has.</p><h3><b>Berkshire is buying other companies’ stocks again</b></h3><p>The first question of the meeting was about Berkshire quickly becoming more active in the stock market. In Buffett’s 2021 annual shareholder letter, dated Feb. 26, he wrote that there were few attractive opportunities out there. Since then, Berkshire struck a deal to acquire insurer Alleghany (Y) for $11.6 billion, and scooped up billions of dollars of shares of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVX\">Chevron</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HPQ\">HP</a>.</p><p>Asked what changed, Munger said: “We found some things we preferred owning to Treasury bills.” Buffett added, “As usual, Charlie has given the full answer, but I’ll still talk more and say less.”</p><p>Buffett explained that Occidental’s capital-return plans and higher oil prices in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine made the stock a buy, and that Alleghany was a natural fit for Berkshire’s insurance operations.</p><p>Buffett also said that Berkshire bought additional Apple stock in the first quarter. The company owned about 911 million shares of the iPhone maker at the end of March, versus 907.6 million at the end of 2021.</p><p>In February, Berkshire said that it owned about 14.7 million shares of Activision Blizzard (ATVI), which were acquired in October and November 2021. On Saturday, Buffett said that Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision, or some 74 million shares—which were worth about $5.6 billion at Friday’s close. Microsoft (MSFT) has agreed to purchase the video-game developer for $95 per share, while shares have been trading in the high $70s and low $80s in recent months. Buffett expects the deal to go through—and for that gap to close.</p><h3><b>Berkshire isn’t buying back as much stock</b></h3><p>Berkshire spent $3.2 billion on share repurchases in the first quarter, down from $6.9 billion in the fourth quarter and $27 billion for all of 2021. Buffett and Munger repurchase shares when they determine that their price is below Berkshire’s intrinsic value.</p><p>Buffett nonetheless extolled the virtues of stock buybacks for shareholders, pointing out that Berkshire’s stake in American Express had grown to about 20%, from 11%, over the years—without Berkshire buying any additional stock.</p><p>“Imagine you owned a farm and had 640 acres, farmed it every year, made a little money on it, enjoyed farming, and somehow 20 years later it turned into 1,100 or 1,200 acres,” Buffett said. “If you do it at the right price, there’s nothing better than buying back part of your own business.”</p><h3><b>Buffett isn’t trying to predict future inflation</b></h3><p>“It’s extraordinary how much [inflation] we’ve seen,” Buffett said, referring to increasing prices at Nebraska Furniture Mart and other Berkshire subsidiaries.</p><p>Buffett believes that the best defense against inflation is to be skilled at what you do, and to produce a good or service that will remain in demand which people will be willing to pay for.</p><p>“The best protection against inflation is your own personal earning power…No one can take your talent away from you,” Buffett said. “If you do something valuable and good for society, it doesn’t matter what the U.S. dollar does.”</p><p>Buffett said that predicting future inflation is a fool’s game, and that no one can really know how much inflation there will be over the next 10 years, or 12 months, or four weeks. “Inflation swindles almost everybody,” Buffett said, whether they are a stock investor, a bond investor, or a “cash-under-the-mattress person.”</p><h3><b>Warren Buffett rips Wall Street for turning the stock market into ‘a gambling parlor’</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett lambasted Wall Street for encouraging speculative behavior in the stock market, effectively turning it into a “gambling parlor.”</p><p>Buffett, 91, spoke at length during his annual shareholder meeting Saturday about one of his favorite targets for criticism: investment banks and brokerages.</p><p>“Wall Street makes money, one way or another, catching the crumbs that fall off the table of capitalism,” Buffett said. “They don’t make money unless people do things, and they get a piece of them.

Recent history should offer some comfort. The markets fell sharply at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic amid fears of a prolonged recession. They didn&#39;t stay low for long, though.</p><p>&#34;Following that sell-off, the market rebounded spectacularly and the S&amp;P 500 is currently sitting at a near record high -- even when taking into account its recent decline,&#34; Channel said.</p><p><b>Review your investment plan</b></p><p>For most investors, the money they have in the market -- either through retirement accounts or individual investments -- is intended for long-term purposes. So short-term fluctuations shouldn&#39;t change one&#39;s strategy a whole lot.</p><p>Still, financial experts said this is a good time to review things to make sure your money is working for you. Multiple financial planners suggested rebalancing your portfolio.</p><p>&#34;A market downturn is a great opportunity to look at your investments to see if they still reflect your target allocation,&#34; said David Haas, president of Cereus Financial Advisors in New Jersey.</p><p>It&#39;s natural to see your portfolio allocation drift when stocks are falling and bonds are rising. Getting back on target is key. Doing this means you&#39;ll be selling what&#39;s high and buying what&#39;s low, said Mark Ziety, executive director of WisMed Financial, an advisory firm based in Wisconsin.</p><p>Similarly, now is a good time to review the diversity of one&#39;s portfolio. Are you too geared toward growth funds? Do you have exposure to emerging markets?</p><p>Now might also be the time to do a Roth conversion, if that was something you were interested in, Ziety said. &#34;When markets are down, more shares can be converted from pretax to tax free for the same tax cost,&#34; he noted.</p><p><b>Put your cash to work</b></p><p>A common aphorism among financial whizzes is to buy the dip. In other words, think of the stock market being discounted right now.</p><p>&#34;Depending on your age and time horizon, this may be a time to buy into the market while it is on sale,&#34; said Charles B. Sachs, director of planning and chief compliance officer at Kaufman Rossin Wealth, a national accounting and investment advisory firm.</p><p>On the upside, there is no sign of panic selling activity, despite the stock market&#39;s biggest drop off in seven weeks on Friday, according to the Arms Index that tracks market internals.</p><p>If you have extra money that you can invest, do not sweat the timing too much.</p><p>&#34;You likely won&#39;t catch the market at its best rock-bottom price, so if you want to invest during a downturn, waiting for the &#39;perfect moment&#39; may not be the best strategy,&#34; said Alana Benson, investing spokesperson at personal-finance website NerdWallet.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Multiple financial planners suggested rebalancing your portfolio.\"A market downturn is a great opportunity to look at your investments to see if they still reflect your target allocation,\" said David Haas, president of Cereus Financial Advisors in New Jersey.It's natural to see your portfolio allocation drift when stocks are falling and bonds are rising. Getting back on target is key. Doing this means you'll be selling what's high and buying what's low, said Mark Ziety, executive director of WisMed Financial, an advisory firm based in Wisconsin.Similarly, now is a good time to review the diversity of one's portfolio. Are you too geared toward growth funds? Do you have exposure to emerging markets?Now might also be the time to do a Roth conversion, if that was something you were interested in, Ziety said. \"When markets are down, more shares can be converted from pretax to tax free for the same tax cost,\" he noted.Put your cash to workA common aphorism among financial whizzes is to buy the dip. In other words, think of the stock market being discounted right now.\"Depending on your age and time horizon, this may be a time to buy into the market while it is on sale,\" said Charles B. Sachs, director of planning and chief compliance officer at Kaufman Rossin Wealth, a national accounting and investment advisory firm.On the upside, there is no sign of panic selling activity, despite the stock market's biggest drop off in seven weeks on Friday, according to the Arms Index that tracks market internals.If you have extra money that you can invest, do not sweat the timing too much.\"You likely won't catch the market at its best rock-bottom price, so if you want to invest during a downturn, waiting for the 'perfect moment' may not be the best strategy,\" said Alana Benson, investing spokesperson at personal-finance website NerdWallet.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".DJI":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":589,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9086470860,"gmtCreate":1650495633829,"gmtModify":1676534735559,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Like]&nbsp;","listText":"[Like]&nbsp;","text":"[Like]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9086470860","repostId":"2229763289","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":409,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9063936331,"gmtCreate":1651381989812,"gmtModify":1676534899288,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Like]&nbsp;","listText":"[Like]&nbsp;","text":"[Like]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9063936331","repostId":"1102313596","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1102313596","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1651364553,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102313596?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-01 08:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Full Recap of Berkshire Hathaway’s Annual Shareholders Meeting Saturday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102313596","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.</p><p>Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway’s first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market’s turned into a “gambling parlor.”</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made. Buffett had previously said that inflation “swindles” equity investors, but noted Saturday that it “swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.”</p><p>Buffett and his longtime partner, Vice Chairman Charlie Munger, fielded shareholder questions on a broad range of issues for hours.</p><p>Buffett also said that Berkshire had been increasing its stake in Activision Blizzard as part of a merger arbitrage bet that Microsoft’s proposed deal to buy the video game company will close. Additionally, Berkshire revealed it had ramped up its stock bets by more than $51 billion during the first quarter amid the broader market’s downturn.</p><p>Buffett also stressed the importance of cash as “new forms of money” like bitcoin pop up.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill. “That’s what money is.”</p><p>Check out full recap below for more from the two investing legends.</p><h3><b>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion of stocks during Q1′s market rout</b></h3><p>Berkshire bought more than $51 billion worth of stocks during the first quarter’s market turmoil, including sizable investments in Chevron, HP and Occidental. The buying at the start of the year marked a sharp reversal from 2021 that saw $7.4 billion of net sales in stocks.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 suffered a 5% sell-off in the first quarter, posting its worst quarter since the start of the pandemic. The rout continued in April with the equity benchmark down another 8.8% amid fears of surging inflation and rising rates.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire is “better than the banks”</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett has a long history of teasing investment bankers and their institutions – saying that they encourage mergers and spinoffs to reap fees, rather than improve companies.</p><p>Today, he noted that Berkshire Hathaway would always be cash-rich, and in times of need, would be “better than the banks” at extending credit lines to companies in need. While Buffett was talking, someone was shouting from the crowd in the CHI Center. It was unclear what the audience member was said.</p><p>“Was that a banker screaming?” Buffett joked.</p><h3><b>Buffett warns shareholders about “new forms of money” and the importance of cash</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett warned shareholders about “new forms of money” as he recalled the financial crisis of 2008 and said Berkshire Hathaway will “always have a lot of cash on hand.”</p><p>Buffett did not explicitly identify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, though he has made headlines for calling bitcoin “rat poison” in the past and has said it has no unique value. Charlie Munger has also spoken with hostility about it.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill.</p><p>“That’s what money is,” he added. “It may turn out that it becomes worth dramatically less at purchasing power. It can become almost like paper money as it has in many countries. But that when people tell you that they’re reaching [for] new forms of money, this is the only thing that will pay bills.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire put money to work after finding ‘little exciting’ in the market</b></h3><p>In his annual chairman letter to shareholders in February, Warren Buffett said there is “little that excites us” in the market. But soon after, he put Berkshire’s money to work.</p><p>Berkshire at the beginning of March revealed a big stake in oil giant Occidental Petroleum. At the beginning of April, Berkshire announced a major stake in tech hardware stock HP. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing revealed the company significantly increased its bet on Chevron.</p><p>“We found some things we prefer to owning Treasury bills,” quipped Berkshire vice chairman and Buffett’s right-hand man Charlie Munger.</p><h3><b>Buffett on his massive Occidental investment</b></h3><p>Buffett scooped up 14% of oil giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, worth more than $7 billion, in two weeks during March.</p><p>He pointed out that the stake was even larger when accounting for the index fund providers who own a huge chunk of the company.</p><p>“That’s not investment. You’re not buying from [investors]. I find it just incredible. You couldn’t do that with Berkshire. ... Overwhelmingly, large companies in America, they became poker chips,” Buffett said.</p><p>“That enabled us, in a two-week period, to buy 14% of a business that’s been around for decades,” Buffett said. “Imagine trying to [buy] 14% of the farms in this country. 14% of the apartment houses. 14% of the auto dealerships, or just anything, when already 40% were locked up some other place. It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”</p><p>The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.</p><h3><b>Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflation</b></h3><p>Ahead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.</p><p>One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.</p><p>Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.</p><p>“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stop</b></h3><p>Buffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.</p><p>“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”</p><p>Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.</p><p>The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.</p><p>“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has &#34;so much trouble&#34; finding businesses to invest in</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.</p><p>“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”</p><p>Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.</p><p>“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Munger says today’s stock market &#34;almost a mania of speculation&#34;</b></h3><p>Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”</p><p>His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.</p><p>“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.</p><p>“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.</p><p>After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.</p><p>“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”</p><h3><b>Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEO</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.</p><p>“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.</p><p>“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”</p><p>The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.</p><p>“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.</p><p>“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.</p><p>“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.</p><p>“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”</p><p>Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has never been &#34;good at timing&#34;</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.</p><p>“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.</p><p>“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do. We don’t know,” he continued.</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha said he often gets misplaced credit for the stock winners he’s picked over the years, pointing out he’s also missed out on some big opportunities as well. Buffett said he failed to make some big purchases in the early days of the pandemic. In a single day in March 2020, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 12.9%,its worst day since 1987.</p><p>Instead, Buffett adheres to a value investing strategy, or picking stocks with attractive valuations, instead of focusing on the vagaries of the stock market.</p><p>“We have not been good at timing,” Buffett said. “We’ve been reasonably good at figuring out when we were getting enough for our money. And we had no idea when we bought anything, but we always hoped it would the down for a while so we could buy more. ... I mean, that stuff, you could you could learn in fourth grade.”</p><h3><b>Munger says &#34;just say no&#34; to putting bitcoin in your retirement account</b></h3><p>Charlie Munger is still down on bitcoin.</p><p>He responded to an audience member question asking what single stock they would invest in given how high inflation has been rising.</p><p>The Berkshire executives didn’t say where they would put their money, but Munger was clear about where he wouldn’t invest: bitcoin.</p><p>“When you have your own retirement account, and your friendly adviser suggests you put all the money in into bitcoin, just say no,” he said.</p><p>Munger’s answer was a thinly veiled reference tobig news from Fidelity this week, which will now allow employees to putbitcoininto their employee-sponsored retirement accounts.</p><p>Munger and Buffett have both long been critics of bitcoin, which has become increasingly attractive to certain investors for its potential as an inflation hedge.</p><h3><b>Buffett describes his start to investing when he was 11 years old</b></h3><p>A trip to the New York Stock Exchange when he was 9 years old was inspiring for Warren Buffett, who is known to have started investing when he was 11 years old.</p><p>“I went to the New York Stock Exchange, I was in awe of it,” Buffett said. “I got very interested in technical analysis and charted stocks and did all kinds of crazy things, did hours and hours and hours and saved money to buy other stocks and tried shorting. I just did everything.”</p><p>The investor bought a stock at 11 after spending his childhood reading books on the subject from the library and in his father’s office. He said his approach to investing later changed completely when he was 19 or 20 years old after reading one particular book passage in what he said must have been Benjamin Graham’s “The Intelligent Investor.”</p><p>“I looked at this book and I saw one paragraph and it told me I’ve been doing everything wrong. I just had the whole approach wrong,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants to make it clear he’s not the only one picking stocks at Berkshire Hathaway</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett wants to make it clear that he’s not the only one at Berkshire Hathaway picking stocks.</p><p>“I see headlines in papers just time after time after time that say, ‘Buffett’s buying such and such,’” Buffett said. “I’m not buying such and such. Berkshire Hathaway is buying.”</p><p>The investor said a stock pick may have been made by other finance professionals in his organization without Buffett’s ever having heard of it.</p><p>“But the headline will attract more people if it says Buffett buying this than if it says Berkshire Hathaway, and we don’t know whether it is the people that work for him, the headline is designed to bring people into the story,” Buffett said.</p><p>“The easiest thing to do is basically shut up and not have a bunch of people facing consequences they didn’t ask for in the first place,” he said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says inflation ‘swindles almost everybody’</b></h3><p>When asked about his previous comments that inflation “swindles” equity investors, Buffett said the damage from rising prices was much broader than that.</p><p>“Inflation swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody,” he said.</p><p>Buffett pointed out that inflation also raises the amount of capital that companies need to have and that it isn’t as simple as raising prices to maintain inflation-adjusted profits.</p><p>The Berkshire Hathaway CEO cautioned against listening to people who claim to be able to predict the path of inflation.</p><p>“The question is how much ... and the answer is nobody knows,” Buffett said.</p><p>Buffett reiterated that the best protection against the inflation is investing in your own skills.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire now owns 9.5% of Activision Blizzard</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway has been increasing its stake inActivision Blizzardin a merger arbitrage bet thatMicrosoft’sproposed acquisition of the video game company will close.</p><p>In the fourth quarter of 2021, Berkshire first purchased about $1 billion worth of Activision Blizzard stock, in a bet the company was undervalued. Buffett has saidBerkshire “had no prior knowledge”of Microsoft’s plan to buy the company when Berkshire made its initial investment.</p><p>In January, Microsoftannounced intentions to buy Activisionfor $95 per share. Its stock closed at $75.60 per share on Friday.</p><p>Buffett said he has been buying more shares of Activision since the deal was announced as the stock is trading way below Microsoft’s offer. Buying at these levels will yield a bigger return if the deal closes.</p><p>Buffett said Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision. “If we went over 10%, we would file a report,” he said.</p><p>“If the deal goes through, we make some money, and if the deal doesn’t go through, who knows what happens,” Buffett said.</p><p>“We don’t know what the Justice Department will do, we don’t know what the E.U. will do, we don’t know what 30 other jurisdictions will do. One thing we do know is that Microsoft has the money,” Buffett added.</p><h3><b>Buffett: ‘I look at Berkshire as a painting’</b></h3><p>The possibilities for Berkshire Hathaway are endless in the eyes of Warren Buffett, who likened the company to a work of art.</p><p>“I look at Berkshire as a painting,” Buffett said. “It’s unlimited in size; it’s got an ever-expanding canvas, and I get to paint what I want.”</p><p>Buffett did acknowledge that he doesn’t know much about art, but added that “other people look at paintings and they see something, then they’ll see something additional later on, and they really have a different sort of perception in relation to that. To me, Berkshire is a painting, and I get to paint.”</p><p>“It’s in my head, and I see different things in it as I go along,” Buffett said. “It’s satisfying.”</p><h3><b>Buffett calls Jerome Powell a hero</b></h3><p>In addressing a question about inflation, Buffett talked about the massive stimulus during the pandemic as a key reason for the rising prices now.</p><p>“You print loads of money, and money is going to be worth less,” Buffett said.</p><p>However, he did not criticize the Federal Reserve for its actions to boost money supply and stabilize markets during the health crisis.</p><p>“In my book,Jay Powellis a hero. It’s very simple. He did what he had to do,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says people are becoming more tribal</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said people are becoming more tribal.</p><p>“My general assumption — there’s no way to prove it — but essentially, people are now behaving somewhat more tribal than they have for a long time,” Buffett said.</p><p>“It’s fun to participate in, but it can get very dangerous when people say two plus two is five and the other says two plus two is three, you know, and they’re gonna give you those answers,” he continued.</p><p>The investor said the country seems as tribal as it appeared during the 1930s when public sentiment was split in the U.S. around Franklin Roosevelt. Buffett said he was raised in a household where he and his siblings weren’t served dessert until they “said something nasty” about Roosevelt.</p><p>“I don’t think it’s a good development for society,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he won’t buy bitcoin because ‘it doesn’t produce anything’</b></h3><p>Warren Buffettreiterated his skepticism of bitcoin on Saturday, saying he would be unwilling to buy it for even extremely low prices because it produces nothing of value.</p><p>“Whether it goes up or down in the next year, or five or 10 years, I don’t know. But the one thing I’m pretty sure of is that it doesn’t produce anything,” Buffett said. “It’s got a magic to it and people have attached magics to lots of things.”</p><p>Buffett listed farmland, apartment buildings — and even art — as assets that had more tangible value than bitcoin.</p><p>“Assets, to have value, have to deliver something to somebody. And there’s only one currency that’s accepted. You can come up with all kinds of things. We can put up Berkshire coins, put up Berkshire money but in the end, this is money,” he said, holding up a $20 bill. “And there’s no reason in the world why the United States government … is going to let Berkshire money replace theirs.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s business meeting concludes with shareholder votes</b></h3><p>Berkshire’s formal business meeting followed nearly five hours of Q&amp;A with Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. Shareholders voted on a number of proposals at the meeting.</p><p>The proposal that garnered most attention was from the non-profit National Legal and Policy Center. It calls for the company to strip Buffett of his chairman role. Shareholders voted down the proposal backed by CALPERS, the largest U.S. public pension fund.</p><p>Brunel Pension requested the board of Berkshire to publish an annual assessment addressing how the company manages physical and transitional climate-related risks. The number of votes against the motion outnumbered the ones for it.</p><p>One shareholder also took issue with Berkshire’s climate change initiative.

The buying at the start of the year marked a sharp reversal from 2021 that saw $7.4 billion of net sales in stocks.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 suffered a 5% sell-off in the first quarter, posting its worst quarter since the start of the pandemic. The rout continued in April with the equity benchmark down another 8.8% amid fears of surging inflation and rising rates.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire is “better than the banks”</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett has a long history of teasing investment bankers and their institutions – saying that they encourage mergers and spinoffs to reap fees, rather than improve companies.</p><p>Today, he noted that Berkshire Hathaway would always be cash-rich, and in times of need, would be “better than the banks” at extending credit lines to companies in need. While Buffett was talking, someone was shouting from the crowd in the CHI Center. It was unclear what the audience member was said.</p><p>“Was that a banker screaming?” Buffett joked.</p><h3><b>Buffett warns shareholders about “new forms of money” and the importance of cash</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett warned shareholders about “new forms of money” as he recalled the financial crisis of 2008 and said Berkshire Hathaway will “always have a lot of cash on hand.”</p><p>Buffett did not explicitly identify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, though he has made headlines for calling bitcoin “rat poison” in the past and has said it has no unique value. Charlie Munger has also spoken with hostility about it.</p><p>“The United States government affects that this became exchangeable for lawful money in the United States,” Buffett said, displaying an image of an old $20 bill.</p><p>“That’s what money is,” he added. “It may turn out that it becomes worth dramatically less at purchasing power. It can become almost like paper money as it has in many countries. But that when people tell you that they’re reaching [for] new forms of money, this is the only thing that will pay bills.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire put money to work after finding ‘little exciting’ in the market</b></h3><p>In his annual chairman letter to shareholders in February, Warren Buffett said there is “little that excites us” in the market. But soon after, he put Berkshire’s money to work.</p><p>Berkshire at the beginning of March revealed a big stake in oil giant Occidental Petroleum. At the beginning of April, Berkshire announced a major stake in tech hardware stock HP. Berkshire’s first-quarter filing revealed the company significantly increased its bet on Chevron.</p><p>“We found some things we prefer to owning Treasury bills,” quipped Berkshire vice chairman and Buffett’s right-hand man Charlie Munger.</p><h3><b>Buffett on his massive Occidental investment</b></h3><p>Buffett scooped up 14% of oil giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, worth more than $7 billion, in two weeks during March.</p><p>He pointed out that the stake was even larger when accounting for the index fund providers who own a huge chunk of the company.</p><p>“That’s not investment. You’re not buying from [investors]. I find it just incredible. You couldn’t do that with Berkshire. ... Overwhelmingly, large companies in America, they became poker chips,” Buffett said.</p><p>“That enabled us, in a two-week period, to buy 14% of a business that’s been around for decades,” Buffett said. “Imagine trying to [buy] 14% of the farms in this country. 14% of the apartment houses. 14% of the auto dealerships, or just anything, when already 40% were locked up some other place. It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”</p><p>The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.</p><h3><b>Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflation</b></h3><p>Ahead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.</p><p>One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.</p><p>Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.</p><p>“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stop</b></h3><p>Buffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.</p><p>“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”</p><p>Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.</p><p>The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.</p><p>“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has &#34;so much trouble&#34; finding businesses to invest in</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.</p><p>“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”</p><p>Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.</p><p>“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Munger says today’s stock market &#34;almost a mania of speculation&#34;</b></h3><p>Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”</p><p>His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.</p><p>“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.</p><p>“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.</p><p>After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.</p><p>“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”</p><h3><b>Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEO</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.</p><p>“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.</p><p>“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”</p><p>The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.</p><p>“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.</p><p>“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.</p><p>“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.</p><p>“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”</p><p>Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he has never been &#34;good at timing&#34;</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.</p><p>“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.</p><p>“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do. We don’t know,” he continued.</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha said he often gets misplaced credit for the stock winners he’s picked over the years, pointing out he’s also missed out on some big opportunities as well. Buffett said he failed to make some big purchases in the early days of the pandemic. In a single day in March 2020, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 12.9%,its worst day since 1987.</p><p>Instead, Buffett adheres to a value investing strategy, or picking stocks with attractive valuations, instead of focusing on the vagaries of the stock market.</p><p>“We have not been good at timing,” Buffett said. “We’ve been reasonably good at figuring out when we were getting enough for our money. And we had no idea when we bought anything, but we always hoped it would the down for a while so we could buy more. ... I mean, that stuff, you could you could learn in fourth grade.”</p><h3><b>Munger says &#34;just say no&#34; to putting bitcoin in your retirement account</b></h3><p>Charlie Munger is still down on bitcoin.</p><p>He responded to an audience member question asking what single stock they would invest in given how high inflation has been rising.</p><p>The Berkshire executives didn’t say where they would put their money, but Munger was clear about where he wouldn’t invest: bitcoin.</p><p>“When you have your own retirement account, and your friendly adviser suggests you put all the money in into bitcoin, just say no,” he said.</p><p>Munger’s answer was a thinly veiled reference tobig news from Fidelity this week, which will now allow employees to putbitcoininto their employee-sponsored retirement accounts.</p><p>Munger and Buffett have both long been critics of bitcoin, which has become increasingly attractive to certain investors for its potential as an inflation hedge.</p><h3><b>Buffett describes his start to investing when he was 11 years old</b></h3><p>A trip to the New York Stock Exchange when he was 9 years old was inspiring for Warren Buffett, who is known to have started investing when he was 11 years old.</p><p>“I went to the New York Stock Exchange, I was in awe of it,” Buffett said. “I got very interested in technical analysis and charted stocks and did all kinds of crazy things, did hours and hours and hours and saved money to buy other stocks and tried shorting. I just did everything.”</p><p>The investor bought a stock at 11 after spending his childhood reading books on the subject from the library and in his father’s office. He said his approach to investing later changed completely when he was 19 or 20 years old after reading one particular book passage in what he said must have been Benjamin Graham’s “The Intelligent Investor.”</p><p>“I looked at this book and I saw one paragraph and it told me I’ve been doing everything wrong. I just had the whole approach wrong,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett wants to make it clear he’s not the only one picking stocks at Berkshire Hathaway</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett wants to make it clear that he’s not the only one at Berkshire Hathaway picking stocks.</p><p>“I see headlines in papers just time after time after time that say, ‘Buffett’s buying such and such,’” Buffett said. “I’m not buying such and such. Berkshire Hathaway is buying.”</p><p>The investor said a stock pick may have been made by other finance professionals in his organization without Buffett’s ever having heard of it.</p><p>“But the headline will attract more people if it says Buffett buying this than if it says Berkshire Hathaway, and we don’t know whether it is the people that work for him, the headline is designed to bring people into the story,” Buffett said.</p><p>“The easiest thing to do is basically shut up and not have a bunch of people facing consequences they didn’t ask for in the first place,” he said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says inflation ‘swindles almost everybody’</b></h3><p>When asked about his previous comments that inflation “swindles” equity investors, Buffett said the damage from rising prices was much broader than that.</p><p>“Inflation swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody,” he said.</p><p>Buffett pointed out that inflation also raises the amount of capital that companies need to have and that it isn’t as simple as raising prices to maintain inflation-adjusted profits.</p><p>The Berkshire Hathaway CEO cautioned against listening to people who claim to be able to predict the path of inflation.</p><p>“The question is how much ... and the answer is nobody knows,” Buffett said.</p><p>Buffett reiterated that the best protection against the inflation is investing in your own skills.</p><h3><b>Buffett says Berkshire now owns 9.5% of Activision Blizzard</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway has been increasing its stake inActivision Blizzardin a merger arbitrage bet thatMicrosoft’sproposed acquisition of the video game company will close.</p><p>In the fourth quarter of 2021, Berkshire first purchased about $1 billion worth of Activision Blizzard stock, in a bet the company was undervalued. Buffett has saidBerkshire “had no prior knowledge”of Microsoft’s plan to buy the company when Berkshire made its initial investment.</p><p>In January, Microsoftannounced intentions to buy Activisionfor $95 per share. Its stock closed at $75.60 per share on Friday.</p><p>Buffett said he has been buying more shares of Activision since the deal was announced as the stock is trading way below Microsoft’s offer. Buying at these levels will yield a bigger return if the deal closes.</p><p>Buffett said Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision. “If we went over 10%, we would file a report,” he said.</p><p>“If the deal goes through, we make some money, and if the deal doesn’t go through, who knows what happens,” Buffett said.</p><p>“We don’t know what the Justice Department will do, we don’t know what the E.U. will do, we don’t know what 30 other jurisdictions will do. One thing we do know is that Microsoft has the money,” Buffett added.</p><h3><b>Buffett: ‘I look at Berkshire as a painting’</b></h3><p>The possibilities for Berkshire Hathaway are endless in the eyes of Warren Buffett, who likened the company to a work of art.</p><p>“I look at Berkshire as a painting,” Buffett said. “It’s unlimited in size; it’s got an ever-expanding canvas, and I get to paint what I want.”</p><p>Buffett did acknowledge that he doesn’t know much about art, but added that “other people look at paintings and they see something, then they’ll see something additional later on, and they really have a different sort of perception in relation to that. To me, Berkshire is a painting, and I get to paint.”</p><p>“It’s in my head, and I see different things in it as I go along,” Buffett said. “It’s satisfying.”</p><h3><b>Buffett calls Jerome Powell a hero</b></h3><p>In addressing a question about inflation, Buffett talked about the massive stimulus during the pandemic as a key reason for the rising prices now.</p><p>“You print loads of money, and money is going to be worth less,” Buffett said.</p><p>However, he did not criticize the Federal Reserve for its actions to boost money supply and stabilize markets during the health crisis.</p><p>“In my book,Jay Powellis a hero. It’s very simple. He did what he had to do,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says people are becoming more tribal</b></h3><p>Warren Buffett said people are becoming more tribal.</p><p>“My general assumption — there’s no way to prove it — but essentially, people are now behaving somewhat more tribal than they have for a long time,” Buffett said.</p><p>“It’s fun to participate in, but it can get very dangerous when people say two plus two is five and the other says two plus two is three, you know, and they’re gonna give you those answers,” he continued.</p><p>The investor said the country seems as tribal as it appeared during the 1930s when public sentiment was split in the U.S. around Franklin Roosevelt. Buffett said he was raised in a household where he and his siblings weren’t served dessert until they “said something nasty” about Roosevelt.</p><p>“I don’t think it’s a good development for society,” Buffett said.</p><h3><b>Buffett says he won’t buy bitcoin because ‘it doesn’t produce anything’</b></h3><p>Warren Buffettreiterated his skepticism of bitcoin on Saturday, saying he would be unwilling to buy it for even extremely low prices because it produces nothing of value.</p><p>“Whether it goes up or down in the next year, or five or 10 years, I don’t know. But the one thing I’m pretty sure of is that it doesn’t produce anything,” Buffett said. “It’s got a magic to it and people have attached magics to lots of things.”</p><p>Buffett listed farmland, apartment buildings — and even art — as assets that had more tangible value than bitcoin.</p><p>“Assets, to have value, have to deliver something to somebody. And there’s only one currency that’s accepted. You can come up with all kinds of things. We can put up Berkshire coins, put up Berkshire money but in the end, this is money,” he said, holding up a $20 bill. “And there’s no reason in the world why the United States government … is going to let Berkshire money replace theirs.”</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s business meeting concludes with shareholder votes</b></h3><p>Berkshire’s formal business meeting followed nearly five hours of Q&amp;A with Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. Shareholders voted on a number of proposals at the meeting.</p><p>The proposal that garnered most attention was from the non-profit National Legal and Policy Center. It calls for the company to strip Buffett of his chairman role. Shareholders voted down the proposal backed by CALPERS, the largest U.S. public pension fund.</p><p>Brunel Pension requested the board of Berkshire to publish an annual assessment addressing how the company manages physical and transitional climate-related risks. The number of votes against the motion outnumbered the ones for it.</p><p>One shareholder also took issue with Berkshire’s climate change initiative. The proposal called for Berkshire to issue a report addressing if and how it intends to measure, disclose, and reduce the GHG emissions associated in alignment with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal, requiring net zero emissions. Shareholders voted it down.</p><p>The last proposal asked Berkshire to report to shareholders on the outcomes of their diversity, equity and inclusion efforts by publishing quantitative data on workforce composition and recruitment, retention, and promotion rates of employees by gender, race, and ethnicity. The motion also failed.</p><p></p></body></html>\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BRK.B":"伯克希尔B","BRK.A":"伯克希尔"},"source_url":"","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1102313596","content_text":"Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway’s first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market’s turned into a “gambling parlor.”The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made.

It defies anything Charlie and I have seen, and we’ve seen a lot.”The legendary investor said that the short-term volatility earlier this year fueled by “gambling mentality” allowed him to find good long-term opportunities.Executives of Berkshire’s portfolio companies discuss impact of inflationAhead of the shareholder meeting, the executives of several Berkshire portfolio companies told CNBC how inflation was hitting their businesses.One of those executives was Jim Weber, CEO of Brooks Running.Weber said it was tough to raise prices for Brooks’ products but that he thinks some of the cost pressures could cool soon.“We don’t have unlimited pricing power, but we have taken selective price increases where we think we can. But our whole industry is so competitive. It’s a big market place. ... I do believe in the supply chain that costs are going to mediate a bit,” Weber said.Buffett wants Berkshire to be in a ‘position to operate’ should the economy stopBuffett said he wants Berkshire Hathaway to be in a “position to operate” should the economy stop.“We want Berkshire Hathaway to be there and in a position to operate if the economy stops,” Buffett said. “And that can always happen, it can always happen.”Buffett played a significant role during the Great Recession, providing capital during a pivotal moment to companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. The move drew criticism from those who disapproved of the support of big banks.The billionaire investor made those remarks while also praising the Federal Reserve’s role during the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic.“The Federal Reserve has not gone,” Buffett said. He added the Fed will “do whatever is necessary. ... That’s what happened in 2008 and 2009, and that’s what happened in 2020, and you’ll hope it happens again next time.”Buffett says he has \"so much trouble\" finding businesses to invest inWarren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway is open to investing in businesses anywhere, not just in the U.S.“We have so much trouble finding good ideas that we can’t afford to ignore any,” Buffett said. “But they do have to be sizable.”Buffett said while he does seek out new investments, he prefers to be approached proactively.“We’ll pay any price, climb any hills to find businesses, but we actually prefer when they fall into our lap,” Buffett said.Munger says today’s stock market \"almost a mania of speculation\"Munger said today’s stock market has become “almost a mania of speculation.”His comment alluded to both high frequency algorithmic trading and access new investors have that intensified during the pandemic.“We have computers with algorithms trading against other computers,” Munger said. “We’ve got people who know nothing about stocks, being advised by stockbrokers who know even less.“I understand the commission though,” Buffett joked.After Munger likened the activity to a casino, where people play craps and roulette, Buffett expanded on the comparison.“People and traders’ poker chips are pulling the handle,” he said. “They’ve got the system set up so that if you want to buy a three-day call on the stock you can do it and they make more money selling you calls than if you buy stock, so they teach you calls. Nobody’s going around selling calls on farms. That’s why markets do crazy things. Occasionally Berkshire gets a chance to do something. It’s not because we’re smarter. … we’re sane, and that’s the main requirement in this business.”Munger blasts calls for separate Berkshire chairman and CEOBerkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger had some stern words in response to a proposal to oust CEO Warren Buffett as chairman.“It’s the most ridiculous criticism I ever heard,” Munger said.“It’s like Odysseus would come back from winning the battle of Troy and so forth and some guy would say, ‘I don’t like the way you were holding your spear when you won that battle,’” he added, referencing ancient Greek epic “The Odyssey.”The California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or CalPERS, the biggest public pension fund in the U.S., earlier this month said it would vote in favor of a shareholder proposal to remove Buffett from his chairman role while remaining CEO. The proposal’s aim stems from concerns about corporate governance with one person holding dual roles.“Some guy that’s never run any business, doesn’t know anything — I don’t think too much of this activity,” Munger said.Berkshire’s head of insurance explains how Geico has fallen behind rival ProgressiveBerkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Ajit Jain, who runs all of the conglomerate’s insurance businesses, lamented about how Geico has fallen behind rival Progressive in the car insurance business.“Each one have their plusses and minuses, but having said that, there’s no question that recently Progressive has done a much better job than Geico … both in terms of margins and in terms of growth,” Jain said.“There are a number of causes for that, but I think the biggest culprit is as far as Geico is concerned … is telematics,” he added. Telematics refers to putting a device on a car that tracks driving patterns, in exchange for a lower insurance rate.“Progressive has been on the telematics bandwagon for more than 10 years. Geico, until recently, wasn’t involved in telematics,” Jain said. “It’s a long journey, but the journey has started, and the initial results are promising. It will take a while, but my hope is that in the next year or two, Geico will be positioned to catch up with Progressive.”Jain’s comments came after Berkshire reported earlier in the day a massive earnings drop in its insurance underwriting business for the first quarter.Buffett says he has never been \"good at timing\"Warren Buffett said he has never figured out how to time the markets.“We haven’t the faintest idea what the stock market was gonna do when it opens on Monday,” Buffett said in response to an audience question.“I don’t think we’ve ever made a decision where either one of us has either said or been thinking we should buy or sell based on what the market is going to do, or for that matter, on what the economy’s going to do. We don’t know,” he continued.The Oracle of Omaha said he often gets misplaced credit for the stock winners he’s picked over the years, pointing out he’s also missed out on some big opportunities as well. Buffett said he failed to make some big purchases in the early days of the pandemic. In a single day in March 2020, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 12.9%,its worst day since 1987.Instead, Buffett adheres to a value investing strategy, or picking stocks with attractive valuations, instead of focusing on the vagaries of the stock market.“We have not been good at timing,” Buffett said. “We’ve been reasonably good at figuring out when we were getting enough for our money. And we had no idea when we bought anything, but we always hoped it would the down for a while so we could buy more. ... I mean, that stuff, you could you could learn in fourth grade.”Munger says \"just say no\" to putting bitcoin in your retirement accountCharlie Munger is still down on bitcoin.He responded to an audience member question asking what single stock they would invest in given how high inflation has been rising.The Berkshire executives didn’t say where they would put their money, but Munger was clear about where he wouldn’t invest: bitcoin.“When you have your own retirement account, and your friendly adviser suggests you put all the money in into bitcoin, just say no,” he said.Munger’s answer was a thinly veiled reference tobig news from Fidelity this week, which will now allow employees to putbitcoininto their employee-sponsored retirement accounts.Munger and Buffett have both long been critics of bitcoin, which has become increasingly attractive to certain investors for its potential as an inflation hedge.Buffett describes his start to investing when he was 11 years oldA trip to the New York Stock Exchange when he was 9 years old was inspiring for Warren Buffett, who is known to have started investing when he was 11 years old.“I went to the New York Stock Exchange, I was in awe of it,” Buffett said. “I got very interested in technical analysis and charted stocks and did all kinds of crazy things, did hours and hours and hours and saved money to buy other stocks and tried shorting. I just did everything.”The investor bought a stock at 11 after spending his childhood reading books on the subject from the library and in his father’s office. He said his approach to investing later changed completely when he was 19 or 20 years old after reading one particular book passage in what he said must have been Benjamin Graham’s “The Intelligent Investor.”“I looked at this book and I saw one paragraph and it told me I’ve been doing everything wrong. I just had the whole approach wrong,” Buffett said.Buffett wants to make it clear he’s not the only one picking stocks at Berkshire HathawayWarren Buffett wants to make it clear that he’s not the only one at Berkshire Hathaway picking stocks.“I see headlines in papers just time after time after time that say, ‘Buffett’s buying such and such,’” Buffett said. “I’m not buying such and such. Berkshire Hathaway is buying.”The investor said a stock pick may have been made by other finance professionals in his organization without Buffett’s ever having heard of it.“But the headline will attract more people if it says Buffett buying this than if it says Berkshire Hathaway, and we don’t know whether it is the people that work for him, the headline is designed to bring people into the story,” Buffett said.“The easiest thing to do is basically shut up and not have a bunch of people facing consequences they didn’t ask for in the first place,” he said.Buffett says inflation ‘swindles almost everybody’When asked about his previous comments that inflation “swindles” equity investors, Buffett said the damage from rising prices was much broader than that.“Inflation swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody,” he said.Buffett pointed out that inflation also raises the amount of capital that companies need to have and that it isn’t as simple as raising prices to maintain inflation-adjusted profits.The Berkshire Hathaway CEO cautioned against listening to people who claim to be able to predict the path of inflation.“The question is how much ... and the answer is nobody knows,” Buffett said.Buffett reiterated that the best protection against the inflation is investing in your own skills.Buffett says Berkshire now owns 9.5% of Activision BlizzardWarren Buffett said Berkshire Hathaway has been increasing its stake inActivision Blizzardin a merger arbitrage bet thatMicrosoft’sproposed acquisition of the video game company will close.In the fourth quarter of 2021, Berkshire first purchased about $1 billion worth of Activision Blizzard stock, in a bet the company was undervalued. Buffett has saidBerkshire “had no prior knowledge”of Microsoft’s plan to buy the company when Berkshire made its initial investment.In January, Microsoftannounced intentions to buy Activisionfor $95 per share. Its stock closed at $75.60 per share on Friday.Buffett said he has been buying more shares of Activision since the deal was announced as the stock is trading way below Microsoft’s offer. Buying at these levels will yield a bigger return if the deal closes.Buffett said Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision. “If we went over 10%, we would file a report,” he said.“If the deal goes through, we make some money, and if the deal doesn’t go through, who knows what happens,” Buffett said.“We don’t know what the Justice Department will do, we don’t know what the E.U. will do, we don’t know what 30 other jurisdictions will do. One thing we do know is that Microsoft has the money,” Buffett added.Buffett: ‘I look at Berkshire as a painting’The possibilities for Berkshire Hathaway are endless in the eyes of Warren Buffett, who likened the company to a work of art.“I look at Berkshire as a painting,” Buffett said. “It’s unlimited in size; it’s got an ever-expanding canvas, and I get to paint what I want.”Buffett did acknowledge that he doesn’t know much about art, but added that “other people look at paintings and they see something, then they’ll see something additional later on, and they really have a different sort of perception in relation to that. To me, Berkshire is a painting, and I get to paint.”“It’s in my head, and I see different things in it as I go along,” Buffett said. “It’s satisfying.”Buffett calls Jerome Powell a heroIn addressing a question about inflation, Buffett talked about the massive stimulus during the pandemic as a key reason for the rising prices now.“You print loads of money, and money is going to be worth less,” Buffett said.However, he did not criticize the Federal Reserve for its actions to boost money supply and stabilize markets during the health crisis.“In my book,Jay Powellis a hero. It’s very simple. He did what he had to do,” Buffett said.Buffett says people are becoming more tribalWarren Buffett said people are becoming more tribal.“My general assumption — there’s no way to prove it — but essentially, people are now behaving somewhat more tribal than they have for a long time,” Buffett said.“It’s fun to participate in, but it can get very dangerous when people say two plus two is five and the other says two plus two is three, you know, and they’re gonna give you those answers,” he continued.The investor said the country seems as tribal as it appeared during the 1930s when public sentiment was split in the U.S. around Franklin Roosevelt. Buffett said he was raised in a household where he and his siblings weren’t served dessert until they “said something nasty” about Roosevelt.“I don’t think it’s a good development for society,” Buffett said.Buffett says he won’t buy bitcoin because ‘it doesn’t produce anything’Warren Buffettreiterated his skepticism of bitcoin on Saturday, saying he would be unwilling to buy it for even extremely low prices because it produces nothing of value.“Whether it goes up or down in the next year, or five or 10 years, I don’t know. But the one thing I’m pretty sure of is that it doesn’t produce anything,” Buffett said. “It’s got a magic to it and people have attached magics to lots of things.”Buffett listed farmland, apartment buildings — and even art — as assets that had more tangible value than bitcoin.“Assets, to have value, have to deliver something to somebody. And there’s only one currency that’s accepted. You can come up with all kinds of things. We can put up Berkshire coins, put up Berkshire money but in the end, this is money,” he said, holding up a $20 bill. “And there’s no reason in the world why the United States government … is going to let Berkshire money replace theirs.”Berkshire’s business meeting concludes with shareholder votesBerkshire’s formal business meeting followed nearly five hours of Q&A with Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. Shareholders voted on a number of proposals at the meeting.The proposal that garnered most attention was from the non-profit National Legal and Policy Center. It calls for the company to strip Buffett of his chairman role. Shareholders voted down the proposal backed by CALPERS, the largest U.S. public pension fund.Brunel Pension requested the board of Berkshire to publish an annual assessment addressing how the company manages physical and transitional climate-related risks. The number of votes against the motion outnumbered the ones for it.One shareholder also took issue with Berkshire’s climate change initiative. The proposal called for Berkshire to issue a report addressing if and how it intends to measure, disclose, and reduce the GHG emissions associated in alignment with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal, requiring net zero emissions. Shareholders voted it down.The last proposal asked Berkshire to report to shareholders on the outcomes of their diversity, equity and inclusion efforts by publishing quantitative data on workforce composition and recruitment, retention, and promotion rates of employees by gender, race, and ethnicity. The motion also failed.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BRK.A":0.9,"BRK.B":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1206,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9084184068,"gmtCreate":1650841853035,"gmtModify":1676534799428,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Like]&nbsp;","listText":"[Like]&nbsp;","text":"[Like]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9084184068","repostId":"1124996515","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":756,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9012471062,"gmtCreate":1649376843980,"gmtModify":1676534501027,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Like]&nbsp;","listText":"[Like]&nbsp;","text":"[Like]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9012471062","repostId":"1192998917","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1192998917","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1649372820,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1192998917?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-08 07:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 Ends Higher, Lifted By Tesla","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1192998917","media":"Reuters","summary":"TheS&P500 ended higher on Thursday, with Pfizer and Tesla fueling a late-session rally while investors eyed the war in Ukraine and a potentially more aggressive Federal Reserve.TeslaInc rose 1.2% and ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The S&amp;P500 ended higher on Thursday, with Pfizer and Tesla fueling a late-session rally while investors eyed the war in Ukraine and a potentially more aggressive Federal Reserve.</p><p>TeslaInc rose 1.2% and Microsoft Corp added 0.6%, helping lift the S&amp;P 500 and provide the Nasdaq a modest gain.</p><p>Also supporting the S&amp;P 500, Pfizer Inc jumped 4.3%after it said it would buy privately held ReViral Ltd in a deal worth as much as $525 million, its second acquisition in less than six months to boost its drug portfolio.</p><p>The S&amp;P traded at a loss for much of the day before rallying near the end of the session.</p><p>“We don&#39;t know how Ukraine is going resolve itself.

That compares with over 30% growth in the prior quarter.\"As we get into the heart of earnings season, I expect volatility to be very prominent,\" said Jake Dollarhide, chief executive officer of Longbow Asset Management in Tulsa, Oklahoma. \"We could see strong results that beat the highest expectations, but weak expectations for the next 12 months.\"Among the 11 S&P 500 sector indexes, real estate was among the deepest decliners, while the health sector index was among the top gainers.Adding to cautious sentiment, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Ukraine had presented Moscow with a draft peace deal that contained \"unacceptable\" elements, while the U.S. Senate voted to remove \"most favored nation\" trade status for Russia in one bill and ban oil imports in another.Unofficially, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.25% to end at 34,583.57 points, while the S&P 500 gained 0.43% to 4,500.21.The Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.06% to 13,897.30.With investors worried about the effect of rising interest rates, growth stocks with pricey valuations have underperformed value stocks so far in 2022.In economic news, data showed the number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits fell last week, indicating a further tightening of labor market conditions heading into the second quarter that could contribute to keeping inflation elevated.Among other movers, HP Inc jumped 14.8% afterWarren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc disclosed it purchased nearly 121 million shares of the personal computing and printing company.Costco Wholesale Corp rallied 4% after the retailer late on Wednesday reported a surge in March sales.American Airlines Group Inc, Delta Air Lines Inc, Southwest Airlines Co and United Airlines Holdings Inc fell between 1.6% and 3.1% afterBarclayswarned of a recent jump in oil prices hurting first-quarter earnings.Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 1.11-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 1.45-to-1 ratio favored decliners.The S&P 500 posted 32 new 52-week highs and 26 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 45 new highs and 219 new lows.About 11.5 billion shares changed hands in U.S. exchanges, compared with the 13.0 billion daily average over the last 20 sessions.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".IXIC":0.9,".DJI":0.9,".SPX":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":588,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9035575749,"gmtCreate":1647649129935,"gmtModify":1676534254683,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good&nbsp;[smile]&nbsp;","listText":"Good&nbsp;[smile]&nbsp;","text":"Good [smile]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9035575749","repostId":"2220484770","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":520,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9022050755,"gmtCreate":1653445588577,"gmtModify":1676535284011,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9022050755","repostId":"1139099159","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1139099159","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1653444320,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1139099159?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-25 10:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tiger Chart | A History of S&P 500 Bear Markets Since 1929","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1139099159","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"The S&P 500 has experienced 25 bear markets since 1929.

At the time, Nvidia seemed destined to become a trillion-dollar company.But after hitting its all-time high, Nvidia's stock shed over a third of its value and its market cap dropped to less than $550 billion. The bulls fled amid concerns about a post-COVID-lockdown slowdown in PC sales, while rising interest rates exacerbated that pain by sparking a sell-off in higher-growth stocks.Can Nvidia regain its momentum and finally join the twelve-zero club by 2025? Let's examine its upcoming catalysts and challenges to find out.Image source: Nvidia.Nvidia could face a cyclical slowdownNvidia's stock hit an all-time high last year as its gaming and data center GPU business generated dazzling growth throughout the pandemic.In the 2022 fiscal year, which ended this January, Nvidia's revenue surged 61% to $26.91 billion as its adjusted earnings per share (EPS) grew 78%. Its adjusted operating margin jumped 640 basis points to 47.2%. It attributed most of that growth to its robust sales of gaming and data center GPUs.But over the next three fiscal years, analysts expect Nvidia's revenue growth to decelerate as that upgrade cycle cools off. On the bright side, they expect its adjusted operating margin to consistently rise as it benefits from improved scale and pricing power in the GPU market.MetricFY 2023 EstimateFY 2024 EstimateFY 2025 EstimateRevenue Growth29%17%12%Adjusted operating margin48.3%49.4%51%Adjusted EPS growth 15%34%11%Data source: S&P Global Market Intelligence.If those expectations are met, Nvidia would generate $45.64 billion in revenue with an adjusted EPS of $6.59 in fiscal 2025.Nvidia currently trades at 16 times its revenue and about 50 times its EPS estimate for fiscal 2023. If Nvidia still trades at those forward valuations at the end of fiscal 2024 and hits the estimates, it would have a market cap of about $730 billion.However, those valuations would still be too rich for a company that's growing its revenue and earnings in the low teens. Therefore, I think Nvidia's market cap might stay between $500 billion and $700 billion over the next three years as it grapples with a cyclical slowdown in the GPU market.The near-term headwindsInvestors should take analysts' estimates with a grain of salt, but Nvidia stock likely needs to take a breather after its big growth spurt over the past few years.In HP's (NYSE: HPQ) latest earnings report, it said its sales of consumer PCs fell 1% year-over-year as it faced tough comparisons to the boost it got from remote work and gaming upgrades during the pandemic. That slowdown doesn't bode well for Nvidia and other PC chipmakers.Meanwhile, data center operators might buy fewer Nvidia GPUs for AI tasks as the usage of cloud-based services decelerates in a post-lockdown market. Waning interest in cryptocurrencies, many of which have lost value this year as investors have rotated out of riskier assets, will also curb sales of its gaming GPUs and dedicated mining chips.To make matters worse, Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) plans to disrupt Nvidia and AMD's (NASDAQ: AMD) duopoly in discrete GPUs with its own chips. These new GPUs, which Intel is bundling with its own CPUs, could cause more headaches for Nvidia and AMD as the broader gaming market slows down.The long-term tailwindsThose challenges seem daunting, but Nvidia has weathered plenty of cyclical downturns and competitive threats since its public debut in 1999. It also remains the dominant discrete GPU maker with an 81% market share, according to JPR's fourth-quarter numbers, compared to AMD's 19% share.The gaming and data center markets should also keep expanding over the next few years. The gaming PC market could expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.9% between 2021 and 2027, according to Report Ocean, while Research and Markets expects the data center accelerator market to grow at a CAGR of 36.7% between 2021 and 2026.If Nvidia continues to dominate both of those growing markets, its cyclical slowdown could end a lot sooner than expected. Its oft-overlooked automotive chip business -- which generated just 2% of revenue in its latest quarter -- could also gain more traction as the automotive sector gradually recovers and develops new connected and autonomous vehicles.Look beyond Nvidia's market capNvidia probably won't become a trillion-dollar company by 2025, and investors who were spoiled by its 380% rally over the past three years might be a bit disappointed. However, it's arguably better for Nvidia's stock to cool off now and reset the market's expectations instead of flying off the rails with runaway valuations.Nvidia's stock might generate much lower returns over the next three years, but investors shouldn't abandon the chipmaker yet. Long-term secular tailwinds could still propel its stock to new all-time highs.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"NVDA":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":586,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9082411919,"gmtCreate":1650590599443,"gmtModify":1676534759472,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4110026750523622","idStr":"4110026750523622"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Like]&nbsp;","listText":"[Like]&nbsp;","text":"[Like]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9082411919","repostId":"2229180283","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2229180283","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1650583058,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2229180283?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-22 07:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US STOCKS-Wall St Ends down as Powell Plops 50 Bps Rate Hike on Table","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2229180283","media":"Reuters","summary":"Fed's Powell says 50 bps rate hike 'on the table'United Airlines, American Airlines jump on earnings","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Fed&#39;s Powell says 50 bps rate hike &#39;on the table&#39;</li><li>United Airlines, American Airlines jump on earnings outlook</li><li>Tesla rises after first-quarter results top estimates</li><li>Markets give up early-day gains to end lower</li><li>Indexes down: Dow 1.05%, S&amp;P 1.48%, Nasdaq 2.07% (Adds closing prices, Alcoa)</li></ul><p>Wall Street&#39;s ended lower on Thursday, with the Nasdaq dropping more than 2%, as investors reacted to Federal Reserve officials including Chair Jerome Powell offering further signposting of aggressive interest rate hikes this year.</p><p>A half-point interest rate increase will be &#34;on the table&#34; when the U.S. central bank meets on May 3-4 to approve the next in what is expected to be a series of rate increases this year, Powell said.</p><p>With inflation running roughly three times the Fed&#39;s 2% target, &#34;it is appropriate to be moving a little more quickly,&#34; Powell added in a discussion of the global economy at the meetings of the International Monetary Fund.</p><p>&#34;The market is pricing in, at least, 50 basis points in May and June,&#34; said George Catrambone, head of trading at <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DWS.AU\">DWS</a> Group.</p><p>&#34;Powell, and many other Fed speakers, have been saying they want to get to control as quickly as possible, and that is saying to the market that they are going to go aggressively.&#34;</p><p>Earlier on Thursday, San Francisco Federal Reserve President Mary Daly said she supports raising the U.S. central bank&#39;s target for overnight borrowing costs to 2.5% by the end of this year, but whether or how much further it will need to rise will depend on what happens with inflation and labor markets.</p><p>The remarks by Fed officials hijacked initial momentum which the markets received from positive earnings.

The event, also called the Cyber Rodeo, marks the opening of the electric vehicle(EV) producer’s new factory based in Austin, Texas. This facility serves as a production hub for the Model Y. Today, though, a lucky 15,000 people will be able to see what else is going on behind its doors. TSLA stock is currently trading flat, but this highly anticipated event promises to generate more momentum for shares.For all the hype that has surrounded GigaFest, this week has still been difficult for TSLA stock. Shares rose this morning but were quick to fall after an hour or so. However, they have since picked up new upward momentum.GigaFest is set to begin at 4 p.m. Central Standard Time. Shares of Tesla will likely rise as the event draws closer and closer.What’s Happening with TSLA Stock?Less than one month ago, Tesla successfully pulled off the grand opening of Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg. The event featured everything from product updates to CEO Elon Musk dancing. While investors don’t know if the dancing will carry over to Cyber Rodeo, they should certainly expect updates on new company innovations.Gigafactory Texas’ primary focus will be Model Y production. However, a Tesla Semi truck was also spotted recently on the facility grounds. This suggests attendees will also be able to see the heavy-duty electric truck up close at the event.TSLA stock popped after Musk provided a promising update on the Cybertruckat the Berlin event. Now, reports indicate that Tesla plans to shift production of the Semi to the Austin-based facility. If it begins mass-producing the EV there, shares will see a significant spike as orders roll in.Of course, it should also be noted that the name Cyber Rodeo is likely a nod to the highly anticipated Cybertruck. The EV won’t be made for months, but the CEO clearly understands the need to keep enthusiasts excited about its pending arrival.Finally, the GigaFest will likely bring an update on Tesla’sbattery progress as well. Part of the importance of the Texas facility is the capacity it provides for battery production. It’s vital for the company’s expansion as it scales for both EVs and batteries. Barring any future complications, the Austin factory will allow Tesla to do both and drive up TSLA stock as a result.What It MeansOnly 15,000 people received invitations to GigaFest, but all eyes will be on the event as it kicks off today. Will it drive momentum for TSLA? Yes, without a doubt. But investors should be more focused on the insights the event will provide into future plans. Musk is clearly focused on expansion and scaling production. The event also comes at a time when Tesla is riding high from a new quarterly sales record.Tesla has proven it can withstand supply-chain shortages and continue pushing forward. Now, GigaFest should give investors a preview of what to expect as Tesla maneuvers through the EV race. Looking forward, expect TSLA stock to keep on rising.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TSLA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":595,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
