Buffett’s conglomerate has its hands in multiple pies 🥧 ~ from insurance (Geico, General Re) to utilities (Berkshire Hathaway Energy), railroads (BNSF), and of course, Apple (a key holding making up a massive chunk of BRK.B’s portfolio 🍏). It’s one of the most diversified powerhouses in the market, and with $BRK.B, you’re not just investing in a company, you’re investing in Buffett’s legendary wisdom. 🤓🔑

Analysts have their 👀’s on these titans. Top hedge fund managers agree that $KO’s consistent dividend payout, even during volatile times, makes it a cornerstone in any long-term portfolio. As one fund manager cheekily remarked, “Coca-Cola’s dividend is like the fizz in your soda – you know it’s there to stay!” 🥤
Meanwhile, BRK.B continues to charm analysts who say, “You don’t bet against Buffett ~ you join him.” 🧢
💰 Capital Flow:
Both BRK.B and KO are showing steady movement, with limited liquidity during overnight trading, but with BRK.B’s long-term investment style, these dips are just a ripple in their vast financial ocean. 🌊
🛎️ Oh, and speaking of fizz, guess what just hit my account? 💸 Yep, you guessed it~I just received my dividend distribution notice from Coca-Cola! 😎 Now, if only the supermarket checkout felt as satisfying as this cash register chime in my Tiger account! The dividend came rolling in for those holding KO as of 13 September 2024, and let’s just say, passive income never tasted sweeter! 💰💸🍀 If you were short on KO, though, don’t be shocked if you see that amount deducted – after all, no free sodas in the short-selling world!🌎🌍🌏
$KO currently offers a dividend yield of 2.7% with a payout ratio of 76.80% – making it a consistent favourite for dividend-focused investors. 💵📈
🧠 Fun Fact:
Did you know Warren Buffett drinks five cans of Coca-Cola every day, and he’s a big fan of Cherry Coke? 🍒 Buffett once joked that he’s “one-quarter Coca-Cola” because the sugary beverage makes up 25% of his daily calories. Talk about dedication! 🍀
🍔 A Dietitian’s Dilemma: Warren Buffett’s Fast Food Phenomenon 🥤
At 94 years old, Warren Buffett kicks off his day with a McDonald’s feast ~ either a $2.61 sausage patty or $3.17 bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit. This 💔heart-attack-in-a-bun delivers 20-25 grams of fat and 300-450 calories! 😲 Add five cans of Coca-Cola, delivering 195 grams of sugar and 700 calories, and even the most relaxed dietitian would be reaching for their kale smoothie in disbelief. 🥬🥤
Yet somehow, Buffett still works six days a week, and his business partner, Charlie Munger, can’t help but shake his head in awe. Munger calls him “wired differently” – and honestly, with a diet like this, maybe he is! 🍟💼
Buffett’s fast-food-and-soda habit is as relentless as his stock-picking – no wonder his brain’s sharper than a well-grilled McDonald’s patty! 🧠🍔
Is his business longevity as indestructible as his love for fast food? It looks like Warren Buffett is breaking all the rules ~ and loving every bite of it! 🔥
Hey Tiger Traders, does this make $KO the ultimate “Buy and Chill” stock in your portfolio? 🤔 And are you riding the BRK.B train with Buffett? 🚂💼🥤
@TigerGPTWhat do you think about Coca-Cola’s performance in the context of long-term dividend returns compared to its competitors? And can $BRK.B continue to beat the market under Buffett’s reign?
And here’s a pretty good video about the valuation of these companies:
