Buffet is over. Isn’t the dude like 90? Didn’t he whiff on big tech?

Amazon isonqblbs Aug 15, 2020

He bought a lot of Apple stock. He said he didn’t buy big tech because he didn’t understand how those companies worked. He is worth 80 billion $. Most definitely not over

Apple f-flag Aug 15, 2020

He’s just been lucky with Apple. He’s outdated.

Personally not a fan of gold, but respect the hell out of buffet so

He has been wrong a lot lately. Gold prices go down eventually when the economy starts up and fires on all cylinders.

Not if the currency is permanently debased.

Yes especially with a rampant inflation and negative interest rates.

Face it, old Warren Buffet is getting senile at this point.

I bet gold is not his purchase. It’s Todd or ted. Buffet buys are billions. Btw everyone in 1999 said he was outdated. He didn’t come out of it too badly.

You honestly don't think they ran it by him before buying? Especially given his public stance on gold before? I highly doubt someone can just buy 0.5 billion of any asset without Warren's OK.

Apple tTpx65 Aug 15, 2020

He said in many occasions that his money managers operate independently without his permission. I don’t have a reason to doubt it. .5 billion is too little for him to lose sleep over.

He hasn't beat s&p500 for many years now. Would stop treating him like some God unless you want to underperform

Lol I remember reading quotes from Buffet trashing on gold.

Lyft Pullingo Aug 16, 2020

He didn't buy gold, he bought gold mining company. That's a difference between buying iPhone vs Apple stock. Every though, the price will be correlated, it is not the same. Click bait articles mislead...

Immigration was a mistake.

Yeah, so enjoy 4 more years of Trump and may be his children for rest of your life...

The moment he sold in March he is just like anybody now a days. His days are long gone. Since he has so much, he is just afloat
