80% of Warren Buffett's Portfolio Is Invested in These 7 Stocks
Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B) CEO Warren Buffett has been a money machine for his shareholders since taking the reins in 1965. Through this past weekend, he's presided over a nearly 3,800,000% increase in the value of Berkshire's Class A shares (BRK.A). He's also outpaced the total return of the benchmark S&P 500, including dividends paid, by a factor of 120, as of the end of 2021.
There are a number of not-so-subtle "secrets" that explain why the Oracle of Omaha has been so successful. His love of dividend stocks and willingness to stick with his investments for years, if not decades, are perfect examples. But the unsung hero of Berkshire Hathaway's outperformance might be portfolio concentration.
