      For Berkshire to continue increasing its operating earnings, its subsidiaries must achieve this since the parent company primarily serves as a capital asset allocator and has no real operations. Thus, Buffett’s economic goal is directly applicable to his investment selection criteria; he seeks steady growth in operating earnings. To identify stocks that align with Buffett’s investment criteria, I screened for companies that have demonstrated a positive operating earnings compound annual growth rate (CAGR) and a negative shares outstanding CAGR over the past ten years. I then calculated a combined value by subtracting the shares outstanding CAGR from the operating earnings CAGR. I ranked these values from highest to lowest and selected those with minimally 10% in combined value. philosophy

      $Berkshire Hathaway(BRK.B)$  Berkshire Hathaway’s cash pile reached a new all-time high of $189 BILLION in Q1 2024. This is a $19 billion increase from their cash balance seen in Q4 2023, and a 70% increase in cash since 2022. To put this in perspective, Berkshire Hathaway’s cash balance is larger than the market cap of Starbucks and Target combined. When asked about this, Warren Buffet said "I don’t mind at all, given current conditions, building our cash position." Why is Buffett holding so much cash? Buffett said that in the current climate, he’s more than happy holding cash. Sometimes, no investment is the best investment. With money market funds paying 5%, capital is piling up on the sidelines.

      Warren Buffett’s insights: make money with little risk

      Another year's Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meeting, with Cook and Gates seen sitting in the audience. The moment when Buffett mistakenly called out "Charlie" was somewhat poignant. In the latest Berkshire Q1 holdings, approximately 75% of the fair value of its portfolio remains concentrated in American Express, Apple, Bank of America, Chevron, and Coca-Cola.It's worth noting that Berkshire Q1 still remained a net seller, with cash reserves reaching new highs. In Q1, Berkshire sold nearly $20 billion worth of stocks while only purchasing $2.7 billion, leading its portfolio value to decline from $354 billion at the end of last year to $336 billion.Although Apple remains Berkshire's largest holding, its stake value dropped from $174 billion at the end of last year to $135.4 billion.

      Buffett is a fundamentally driven investor. He is consistently ahead of the market He caught the decline from December and reduced his $AAPL exposure for the second quarter in a row. We reduced our biggest position in $AMZN and he’s done the same with $AAPL and we both increased our cash positions substantially. Buffett is not listening to bias views, he does his own work, takes action and strictly keeps to his strategy. Take the lesson
