Warren Buffett Has Spent $136 Billion Buying These 4 Stocks Since 2016
When stacked up next to most money managers, Warren Buffett's track record is almost otherworldly. Since taking the helm as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B) in 1965, he's overseen the creation of more than $665 billion in market value for shareholders, as well as lapped the benchmark S&P 500 120 times over, with an aggregate return of 3,641,613% for the company's Class A shares (BRK.A) through the end of 2021.
Time has certainly been an ally for the Oracle of Omaha, with patience and his love of dividend-paying companies playing critical roles in his success as an investor. But another key to this success that's often overlooked is Buffett's penchant for portfolio concentration. Even though Berkshire Hathaway holds stakes in around four dozen securities, the lion's share of his investments can be traced to just a few positions.
