investing, it’s useful to keep some spare cash lying around.</p><p>With both the NASDAQ Composite Index and S&amp;P 500 falling into a bear market, many stocks are getting cheaper as a result.</p><p>Over in Singapore, the weak sentiment, along with rising interest rates, have pushed down the prices of many REITs.</p><p>Yet, the strong REITs have proven time and again that they can

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 distribution yield stands at 4.6%.</p><p>The REIT has maintained a high occupancy rate of 96.1% with a long weighted average lease expiry (WALE) of 4.6 years.</p><p>Aggregate leverage will fall to 29.5% post-repayment of borrowings, setting FLCT up for sufficient debt headroom to make more yield-accretive acquisitions.</p><p>The REIT announced two acquisitions last month – the acquisition of three freehold logistics and industrial properties in Victoria, Australia, and the purchase of a freehold logistics development in Cheshire, the UK.</p><p><b>Mapletree Logistics Trust (SGX: M44U)</b></p><p>Mapletree Logistics Trust, or MLT, owns a portfolio of 183 properties in eight countries with an AUM of S$13.1 billion as of 31 March 2022.</p><p>The logistics-focused REIT reported a 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 growth.</p><p><b>CapitaLand China Trust (SGX: AU8U)</b></p><p>CapitaLand China Trust, or CLCT, is the largest China-focused Singapore REIT with an AUM of RMB 24.8 billion as of 31 December 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 million.</p><p>However, DPU edged up 0.2% year on year to S$0.02466. Prospective distribution yield stands at 5% for its units.</p><p>Keppel DC REIT recently acquired its second data centre in London for S$104 million which will bump up DPU.</p><p>The REIT also purchased two data centres in Guangdong, China, for around S$297 million which will see DPU rise by 2.7%.</p><p>Keppel DC REIT still has around S$2 billion worth of potential data centre acquisitions

That might not be good for the economy, but it would be great news for energy stocks.</p><p>Crude prices had been under pressure since peaking in March, as investors fretted about a potential recession in the U.S. But after getting knocked down as low as $94.29 on April 11, the price of oil has been steadily rising, while making higher highs and higher lows.</p><p>That didn&#39;t change this past week, when the price of oil rose 3.3%, a week that might have been the last best chance to avoid another oil breakout. The reason: The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries announced it would raise production targets to 684,000 barrels a day, up from the current 432,000. It was an acknowledgment that, given the combination of sanctions on Russia and China lifting its Covid-19 restrictions, more oil was needed to keep demand from far outstripping supply.</p><p>Still, it&#39;s probably not enough, says Helima Croft, head of global commodity strategy at RBC Capital Markets. &#34;We think that too big of a burden is probably being placed on OPEC to offset the economic damage caused by a war involving the world&#39;s commodity superstore,&#34; she explains.</p><p>It didn&#39;t help that the European Union announced a limited embargo on Russian oil while U.S. oil inventories fell by 5.07 million barrels, far more than the expected 1.35 million decline. Oil is now trading above $116 a barrel, its highest price since March. That leaves West Texas Intermediate crude, the U.S. benchmark, set up to break the 52-week high of $123.70 reached on March 8. &#34;You can&#39;t stop crude; you can only hope to contain the damage that the run to $150 will wreak on the market and the economy(s),&#34; writes Rich Ross, head of technical analysis at Evercore ISI.</p><p>Oil exploration stocks, in particular, stand to benefit. Truist analyst Neal Dingmann notes that six quarters at that level would mean some of them would have so much free cash flow that they would be able to return more than 80% of their market capitalization to shareholders via share buybacks and dividend payouts. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CPE\">Callon Petroleum</a> would be able to return 86% of its market cap, or $3.1 billion; <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SBOW\">SilverBow Resources</a> could return 72%, or $620 million; $Murphy Oil <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MUR\">$(MUR)$</a> could return 69%, or $4.7 billion; <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OVV\">Ovintiv</a> could return 67%, or $9.8 billion; and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ROCC\">Ranger Oil</a> could return 65%, or $1.2 billion.</p><p>Dingmann is aware of the caveats to his analysis -- that high oil prices could lead to demand destruction that causes prices to fall, while the cost of drilling would probably rise. Still, as long as oil prices can rise, the case for oil stocks remains strong. He&#39;s a fan of Ranger Oil, which provided an update on its balance sheet this past week. &#34;Given our [free cash flow] estimates, we expect the company to quickly work through its current repurchase authorization and potentially increase the program, while also initiating a dividend program in third-quarter 2022 and continuing to target deals,&#34; he writes.</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>If Oil Keeps Rising, These 5 Exploration Stocks Could Benefit</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\">\nIf Oil Keeps Rising, These 5 Exploration Stocks Could Benefit\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2022-06-04 10:19</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>Oil could be headed for $150 a barrel.

That might not be good for the economy, but it would be great news for energy stocks.Crude prices had been under pressure since peaking in March, as investors fretted about a potential recession in the U.S. But after getting knocked down as low as $94.29 on April 11, the price of oil has been steadily rising, while making higher highs and higher lows.That didn't change this past week, when the price of oil rose 3.3%, a week that might have been the last best chance to avoid another oil breakout. The reason: The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries announced it would raise production targets to 684,000 barrels a day, up from the current 432,000. It was an acknowledgment that, given the combination of sanctions on Russia and China lifting its Covid-19 restrictions, more oil was needed to keep demand from far outstripping supply.Still, it's probably not enough, says Helima Croft, head of global commodity strategy at RBC Capital Markets. \"We think that too big of a burden is probably being placed on OPEC to offset the economic damage caused by a war involving the world's commodity superstore,\" she explains.It didn't help that the European Union announced a limited embargo on Russian oil while U.S. oil inventories fell by 5.07 million barrels, far more than the expected 1.35 million decline.

Supply chains will remain a point of difficulty and concern, and the process of reshoring and the transition will continue for years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":298,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9022059818,"gmtCreate":1653445631434,"gmtModify":1676535284026,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9022059818","repostId":"2238308566","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2238308566","pubTimestamp":1653444032,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2238308566?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-05-25 10:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Snap Stock Crash: \"Highly Unlikely That the Weakness Is Isolated,\" Jefferies Says","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2238308566","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"Following a grim profit warning Monday from Snap Inc., investors have another excuse to shed tech sh","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Following a grim profit warning Monday from <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNAP\">Snap Inc.</a>, investors have another excuse to shed tech shares.</p><p>Snap stock plunged more than 40% on Tuesday — falling below the platform&#39;s initial public offering (IPO) price of $17 — after Snap Inc.

Consequently, the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> and <b>Nasdaq Composite</b> have backtracked 15% and 24% year to date, respectively, with no end to the negativism in sight.</p><p>Even big tech has struggled, with premier companies <b>Netflix </b>and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></b> 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&#39;t mean that we should completely ignore tech stocks for the time being.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/58efc5f5899a865afd71defde8137f91\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><p>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,<b> Apple</b>, is a world-beater that can provide investors with much-needed security in today&#39;s market environment. And since it&#39;s down almost 20% year to date, the technology juggernaut grants investors a handsome valuation at present levels.</p><h2>A resilient business</h2><p>In the past 12 quarters, Apple has beaten earnings estimates each time, and the company has only fallen short of Wall Street&#39;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&#39;s services segment surged 17% to $19.8 billion.</p><p>For the full fiscal year 2022, analysts are forecasting Apple&#39;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&#39;s services segment enjoys a long runway for expansion in the years ahead.</p><p>Fortunately for Apple and its shareholders, the company&#39;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.

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.

Macroeconomic headwinds continue to build, including rampant inflation, slowing economic growth, geopolitical turmoil, and Covid-19 lockdowns in Asia.</p><p>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.</p><p>Growth names that were the darlings on<i>Wall Street</i>during the pandemic have not beenimmune to these challenges so far in the year. Even large-capitalization (cap) shares have come under pressure since January.</p><p>Year-to-date (YTD), the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>indexhas so far dropped over 13.5% year-to-date (YTD), while the tech-heavy <b>Nasdaq 100</b>has declined more than21.5% during the same period.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>A bear market can be easier to endure when you’re well-diversified and inthe marketfor the long term.</p><p>With that information, here are seven strategic sectors and asset classes to hide your money in a bear market.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><b>Blue Chip Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Healthcare Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Commodities Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Real Estate Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Utility Stocks</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Cryptocurrency</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>Arts and NFTs</b></td></tr></tbody></table><h2><b>Bear Market: Blue Chip Stocks</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ee025174bc9711cf7cf054fdcfbe90d\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>“Blue chip stocks” are some of the precious gems of the stock market. As most<i>InvestorPlace.com</i>readers know, the term comes from poker chips where the blue chips are the most valuable ones of a three color chip set.</p><p>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 <b>Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA)</b> index belong to a blue chip company.</p><p>If you like dividends, then blue chips should be on your radar screen. They typically grow dividends regularly over decades.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq 100.</p><p>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.</p><p>The following names of stocks and ETFs can be considered when investing in blue chips:</p><ul><li><b>International Business Machines</b>(NYSE:<b><u>IBM</u></b>)</li><li><b>Pfizer</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PFE</u></b>)</li><li><b>Walmart</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WMT</u></b>)</li><li><b>T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth ETF</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TCHP</u></b>)</li><li><b>Invesco Dow Jones Industrial Average Dividend ETF</b>(NYSE:<b><u>DJD</u></b>)</li></ul><h2><b>Healthcare Stocks</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/24071cbf367a83a8c27823f7dcbde884\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>With 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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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 from<b>Moderna</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MRNA</u></b>) for use of its vaccine for young children. Pfizer is also expected to make a similar request soon.</p><p>Healthcare stocks or ETFs could thus provide a potential safe haven for wary investors. Here are a few picks:</p><ul><li><b>Abbvie</b>(NYSE:<b><u>ABBV</u></b>)</li><li><b>Bio-Rad Laboratories</b>(NYSE:<b><u>BIO</u></b>)</li><li><b>Merck</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MRK</u></b>)</li><li><b>Novo Nordisk</b>(NYSE:<b><u>NVO</u></b>)</li><li><b>Thermo Fisher Scientific</b>(NYSE:<b><u>TMO</u></b>)</li><li><b>iShares Global Healthcare ETF</b>(NYSEARCA:<b><u>IXJ</u></b>)</li><li><b>Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund</b>(NYSEARCA:<b><u>XLV</u></b>)</li></ul><h2><b>Bear Market: Commodities</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2bddccd89eea651feaf3fc435d316654\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>Analysts are increasingly convinced that we are at the start of a long-term structural bull market in commodities. The World Bank’s <i>Commodity Markets Outlook</i>report suggests that the Russian invasion of Ukraine has changed the discourse on commodities.</p><p>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.</p><p>Energy prices are of particular interest to investors. Brent crude is currently trading ataround$100 per barrel. And theDow Jones Oil &amp; Gas Index has soaredmore than45% year-to-date (YTD).</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>Investors can either buy individual stocks or invest in ETFs for commodities like energy, agriculture, and metals.</p><p>The following names deserve further due diligence:</p><ul><li><b>Archer Daniels Midland</b> (NYSE:<b>ADM</b>)</li><li><b>Barrick Gold</b>(NYSE:<b><u>GOLD</u></b>)</li><li><b>Franco-Nevada</b>(NYSE:<b><u>FNV</u></b>)</li><li><b>Newmont</b>(NYSE:<b><u>NEM</u></b>)</li><li><b>Nucor</b>(NYSE:<b>NUE</b>)</li><li><b>Rio Tinto</b> (NYSE:<b>RIO</b>)</li><li><b>BHP</b> (NYSE:<b>BHP</b>)</li><li><b>Freeport McMoRan</b> (NYSE:<b>FCX</b>)</li><li><b>SPDR S&amp;P Metals and Mining</b> (NYSEARCA:<b>XME</b>)</li><li><b>Invesco DB Commodity Index Tracking Fund</b>(NYSEARCA:<b>DBC</b>)</li><li><b>iShares GSCI Commodity Dynamic Roll Strategy ETF</b>(NASDAQ:<b>COMT</b>)</li></ul><h2><b>Real Estate Stocks</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40d6b0f5de2972f4461ff4ad61b490fd\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></h2><p>Investing in real estate is another option to protect your savings against inflation or volatile markets. It also provides consistent income over a long period.</p><p>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 to<i>Wall Street</i>to participate in the growth of real estate shares and for less capital.</p><p>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.

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.

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.</p><p>What’s Happening With TSLA Stock</p><p>TSLA stock has been rising since the beginning of the week. Why?

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.

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.

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.

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.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":73,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9088377785,"gmtCreate":1650323876610,"gmtModify":1676534694109,"author":{"id":"4110026750523622","authorId":"4110026750523622","name":"Tiger 88","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Like]&nbsp;","listText":"[Like]&nbsp;","text":"[Like]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9088377785","repostId":"1152635116","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1152635116","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":1650295415,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1152635116?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-04-18 23:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. Stocks Mixed in Morning Trading, Dow Jones and S&P 500 Turned Up","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1152635116","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stocks mixed in morning trading.Dow Jones, S&P 500 rose 0.09% and 0.01% separately,while Nasdaq","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>U.S. stocks mixed in morning trading.Dow Jones, S&amp;P 500 rose 0.09% and 0.01% separately,while Nasdaq slid 0.22%.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3520b55fe7e5bb20088f54d7a6f890e3\" tg-width=\"515\" tg-height=\"116\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Musk himself also has described user-friendly tweaks to the service, such as an edit button and defeating &#34;spam bots&#34; that send overwhelming amounts of unwanted tweets.</p><p>Discussions over the deal, which last week appeared uncertain, accelerated over the weekend after Musk wooed Twitter shareholders with financing details of his offer.</p><p>Under pressure, Twitter started negotiating with Musk to buy the company at the proposed $54.20 per share price.</p><p>&#34;Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated,&#34; Musk said in a statement.</p><p>Twitter shares rose 5.7% on Monday to close at $51.70.

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},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2,"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":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"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,"repost":{"id":"2229763289","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1650495355,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2229763289?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-04-21 06:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Posts Record Profit, Q1 Sales Jump 81% despite Supply-Chain Disruptions","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2229763289","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Tesla Inc. late Wednesday reported another record quarter of sales and profit, blowing past Wall Street estimates even though it said its factories continue to run below capacity due to supply-chain p","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Tesla Inc. late Wednesday reported another record quarter of sales and profit, blowing past Wall Street estimates even though it said its factories continue to run below capacity due to supply-chain problems.</p><p>On a post-results call with investors, Chief Executive Elon Musk focused on some of the more futuristic endeavors for Tesla <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">$(TSLA)$</a>, such as promising a new &#34;robotaxi&#34; vehicle in two years, and kept mum about his proposal to buy <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> Inc.

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.

Consensus economists expect the PCE to post another monthly climb of 0.9% in March, according to Bloomberg data,This would mark the 16th consecutive monthly increase and bring the index up by 6.7% on a year-over-year basis.“Supply chain pressures and labor tightness will keep inflation elevated in the near term, while policy normalization and some reversal of spikes cools things off over time,” economists at bank of America said.Economic calendarMonday: Chicago Fed National Activity Index, March (0.45 expected, 0.51 during prior month), Dallas Fed Manufacturing Activity, April (4.8 expected, 8.7 during prior month)Tuesday: Durable Goods Orders, March preliminary (1.0% expected, -2.1% during prior month), Durable Goods Orders Excluding Transportation, March preliminary (0.6% expected, -0.6% during prior month), Capital Goods Orders Nondefense Excluding Aircrafts, March preliminary (0.4% expected, -0.2% during prior month), Capital Goods Shipments Nondefense Excluding Aircrafts, March preliminary (0.5% expected, 0.3% during prior month), FHFA House Pricing Index, month-over-month, February (1.5% expected, 1.6% during prior month), S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite, month-over-month, February (1.50% expected, 1.79% during prior month), S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite, year-over-year, February (19.20% expected, 19.10% during prior month), S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index, year-over-year, February (19.17% during prior month), Conference Board Consumer Confidence, April (108.5 expected, 107.2 during prior month), Conference Board Present Situation, April (153.0 during prior month), Conference Board Expectations, April (76.6 during prior read), Richmond Fed Manufacturing Index, April (8 expected, 13 during prior month), New home sales, March (770,000 expected, 772,000 during prior month), New home sales, month-over-month, March (-0.3% expected, -2.0% during prior month)Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended April 22 (-5.0% during prior week), Advance Goods Trade Balance, March (-$105.0 billion expected, -$106.6 billion during the prior month, revised to $106.3 billion), Wholesale Inventories, month-over-month, March preliminary (1.5% expected, 2.5% during previous month), Retail Inventories, month-over-month, March (1.6% expected, 1.1% during prior month), Pending Home Sales, month-over-month, March (-1.0% expected, -4.1% during prior month), Pending Home Sales NSA, year-over-year, March (-5.4% during prior month)Thursday: GDP Annualized, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (1.0% expected, 6.9% prior), Personal Consumption, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (3.4% expected, 2.5% prior), GDP Price Index, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (7.2% expected, 7.1% prior), Core PCE, quarter-over-quarter, Q1 advance (5.6% expected, 5.0% prior), Initial Jobless Claims, week ended April 23 (180,000 expected, 184,000 during prior week), Continuing Claims, week ended April 16 (1.393 million expected, 1.417 million during prior week), Kansas City Fed Manufacturing Index, April (35 expected, 37 during prior month)Friday: Employment Cost Index, 1Q (1.1% expected, 1.1% prior), Personal Income, month-over-month, March (0.4% expected, 0.5% during prior month), Personal Spending, month-over-month, March (0.6% expected, 0.2% during prior month), Real Personal Spending, month-over-month, March (0.1% expected, -0.4% during prior month), PCE deflator, month-over-month, March (0.9% expected, 0.6% during prior month), PCE deflator, year-over-year, March (6.7% expected, 6.4% during prior month), PCE core deflator, month-over-month, March (0.3% expected, 0.54% during prior month), PCE core deflator, year-over-year, March (5.3% expected, 5.4% during prior month), MNI Chicago PMI, April (62.0 expected, 62.9 during prior month), University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment, April final (65.7 expected, 65.7 prior), U. of Mich.

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.
