Barstool’s Dave Portnoy vs. Warren Buffett: Trading vs Investing
Barstool Sports' Dave Portnoy has been throwing quite a bit of shade toward Warren Buffett lately. The pizza reviewing, sports analyzing, sports betting Portnoy has taken to day trading in the wake of sports being largely postponed. In doing so, he's taken his special brand of commentary with him.
On Monday, June 8, Portnoy took to Twitter (NYSE: TWTR) in a video where he celebrated the day's run in airline stocks, and mocked Buffett for having exited his position early. He has since made multiple comments and posts about the issue, as social media and news sites have jumped on the comments.
Now, I'm sure most of what the Barstool founder said is in jest. He is an advertiser after all, and throwing his name in with Buffett draws attention. You can't really compare what he has been doing to what Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.B) have done. It's the difference between trading and investing.
