2 Surefire Warren Buffett Stocks That Are Screaming Buys in August
It's always a newsmaker when Berkshire Hathaway files its quarterly 13F form to the Securities and Exchange Commission, detailing the company's equity holdings for the most recent quarter. That's because its chairman and CEO, Warren Buffett, is one of the greatest investors of all time, and he's still one of the most influential voices in the financial world.
But you don't need to wait when it comes to your own portfolio. Buffett buys for the long term, and the stocks that are already in his portfolio can be a great starting place if you're looking for ideas yourself. So don't put off your research till Berkshire's second-quarter 13F comes out this month. Here are two Buffett holdings that look like screaming buys as we start August: Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) and Visa (NYSE: V).
Bank of America is Buffett's second-largest holding, accounting for roughly one-tenth of the portfolio at recent prices. Buffett has long shown an affinity for financial stocks -- and bank stocks in particular -- and there is none he likes more than Bank of America.
