For the past 30 years, I’ve managed my portfolio myself and own 3 shares of Berkshire Hathaway Class A stock (BRK:A), which I bought for around $17,000 in the mid-90s. Now, I’m liquidating some of these positions to diversify into next-generation stocks. However, given the current market volatility, I’m wondering if I’d be better off reinvesting in gold instead, as stocks seem a bit too unstable right now.

[@TylerJamestown]

Invest in real estate, gold , ETfs and high-yield savings account.

[@StocksWolf752]

The market is not necessarily a rollercoaster if you know your way around the market, there are various opportunities in the present market to accrue good profit, If you are not too savvy with the market, just buy and hold on strong companies with good earnings, or consult with advisors on Etfs and actively managed funds. I am up by 418% in 1 year under guidance.

[@JamesLongman-v5r]

Awesome.. Please I would love to know or get in touch with your investment advisor. I could really use such expertise in growing my portfolio now that the entire markets is uncertain

I watched the entire annual meeting of Berkshire Hathaway on tape. His position has been shifting since he started investing, and he's still in the game, which impressed me. I started following Buffett in 2019, and since then, I've learned a great deal from his approach to investing, which has allowed me to generate $20K in dividend income each month.

[@LuvmeRos]

When he casually brought up Charlie Munger, I was really moved. There was a great depth to their relationship. They've both been following me, and they've significantly altered my thinking about investing and who I should work with.

The most popular investment portfolio strategies include diversification, where you spread investments across different asset classes to manage risk. Another is the growth strategy, focused on capital appreciation through high-risk, high-reward assets. Income-oriented strategies target regular income from dividend stocks or bonds. Finally, there's the value strategy, seeking undervalued assets for potential long-term gains.

[@belobelonce35]

According to Warren Buffett, dividends are less valuable for growing businesses and more suitable for established ones. Investing in companies that offer dividends might be seen as parking capital for steady returns, especially for those relying on portfolio income. This approach resembles bond investing, serving as a means of generating consistent earnings.

Conclusion: WB wanted to increase his cash position. One reason is gains tax at 21% is relatively low this year, and it could go up in the future. WB said at one point in the past, it was 52%. So, he sold some portions of his largest investment, Apple.

Buying Stocks or Gold are the absolute best hedges against hyperinflation.

[@BetycreacionesBebi]

People believe their currency has the worth it does because they have no other option. Even in a hyperinflationary environment, individuals must continue to use their hyperinflationary currency since they likely have minimal access to other currencies or gold/silver coins.

[@Jayraymond897]

Inflation is gradually going to become part of us and due to that fact any money you keep in cash or in a low-interest account declines in value each year. Investing in stocks is the only way to make your money grow and unless you have an exceptionally high income, investing is the only way most people will ever have enough money to retire.

Focus on long term investments in property, stocks, and bonds. Avoid copying, daytrading and 'chart astrology'.

This is the best way to invest for more than 90% of people.

I think take his words with a grain of salt here. He won't explain why because he is perhaps still in the process of unloading. He'd be doing his shareholders a disservice because his words carry so much weight and will move markets which in this case will cause his shareholders to lose gains in his process of unloading Apple. I personally think it is because it isn't as sustainable a business than Coca Cola and American Express. Apple is largely dependent on their iPhone as service revenue hinges on the number of iPhone users, but as a tech product, is something consumers are more willing to switch if an alternative is present (especially given the lack of innovation in recent years). Here in the US the alternative is pretty limiting (mainly Samsung) but if you look at China where there are quite a few alternatives (Xiaomi, Huawei) it has started eating into Apple sales.

[@stevelevine3008]

LOL ‘Apple isn’t a sustainable business’ - maybe you should take a look at the gross margin expansion for a company doing over 400B in gross revenue a year. And you know maybe the greatest business ever with the most successful consumer product ever that has been around now for 4 decades with a deep bench of executives that have been there for over 20 years. Also keep in mind Berkshires stake is now 135B. AAPL is doing a 110B annual buyback now- thats almost the entire Berkshire stake in cash. But obviously not a sustainable business with an extremely sticky ecosystem with a record number of connected devices every single quarter. Oh, and for you all that they don’t spend on R&D- they spend as much as GOOGL and don’t have the CAPEX outlay for building a cloud service business.

Who is this person guiding you and how can i reach he/she?

[@matteohenry33]

My advisor is a lady and goes by the name `Celia Kathleen Martel` I suggest you look her up. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did.

[@HettieClausenTl]

I'm pleased with the advisor's prompt and knowledgeable assistance. Their professionalism instills confidence. Looking forward to further discussions.

[@GeorgeSkinner-564]

Is this a good moment to make stock investments? I am aware that equities are inexpensive, but when will we start to see gains? It is true that there are tactics to be applied in this market, but are they available to the common individual, thus would it be better to place my money elsewhere?

[@JosephScheiber5]

If there's one thing the market has taught me, it's that it usually bounces back. However, with important factors like my retirement and reserve depressing inflation, I find it difficult to grasp the big picture. As soon as feasible, I need a strong data trajectory and solution.

[@RobertRWarren-oz4]

My daily investing decisions are overseen by a financial institution, which is one of the main reasons I work with them. Their entire skill set is based on trading long and short simultaneously, using profit-oriented approaches and reducing risk as a hedge against inevitable downtrends. When combined with analysis and insider information, it's exceedingly difficult to perform below expectations. With this company for around two years, the return on investment has exceeded one million five hundred thousand dollars.

[@MyronBauman809-]

Could you please tell me the name of this business? I've been looking into financial institutions since I could really use some advice.

[@WalshWilliamFrancis]

I have worked with many investment firms, but SolchangeLTD has shown to be the most competent and trustworthy thus far. Because of their huge fan base, you could look them up online by searching for their name as a firm.

They are fiduciaries, therefore I think they'll look out for my best interests. They seem to know a lot of things. They had an impressive vision and mission, years of success, and evaluations, all of which I looked through when I came across their web portfolio. As a result, I've already spoken to them.

Building wealth from nothing involves consistent saving, disciplined spending, and strategic investments. Begin by creating a budget to track expenses and identify areas for savings. Prioritize paying off high-interest debt and establishing an emergency fund. As you build a foundation, start investing in low-cost options like index funds, and focus on continuous learning and improving your skills for better income opportunities

[@arthurdean7224]

This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, *Michael Hugh Terpin* skillset makes it nearly impossible for him to underperform. I've been utilizing him as a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.

He only sold 13%...he trimmed...which he said he never does. He usually sells all. He probably did it this way to minimize tax.

[@ChaceBonanno]

Minimize the tax rate on a small portion? Doesn’t make sense, it’s such small savings relative to their AUM/net worth. Sold to have more cash? Doesn’t make sense when they have so much cash relative to their net worth.

[@csuporj]

@@ChaceBonanno Probably two reasons: 1) He thinks that 2009 is repeating soon, so we are near the maximum. When he bouth Apple, the P/E ratio was much better than now. 2) He anticipates a rise in the taxes after the election, thus he wants to pay the taxes before. 1b) or 3) He wants cash to buy shares at the low, if 2009 repeats. He cannot sell all at once, as that would reduce his selling price. Who buys that much at once?

Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others. As an investor, you should've known that by now that nothing beats experience and that's final.

Thanks for the video, It works with minor adjustments, First I added the Demarker (7) indicator, then I put the 70 to 60 on the Rsi because it will either touch the 50 or 60. Great with OTC trades as well. Also just changed the 30 sec chart to 1 min and 1 min time to 2 min chart. Same concept!

[@cesarmurph]

Didn't Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett invent the strategy of buying/investing when the market is low and also buying/investing when the market is high? As Warren Buffet said, he has seen this happen many times in his life. Not an investor. My wife and i never earned more than a middle class salary. We plan to get retired at 58 with a stock portfolio worth $4M. We have never sold so much as one share of stock...

It really isn’t about how much you save, it’s about how you manage your money. Whether you work to earn income or invest, it still boils down to income vs expenses, so yeah you may look into financial advisors for a strategy that suits your timing....

he cant say apple is getting stale and thats why he is selling. if he cant sell it at good price, its bad for berkshire shareholders. he owns a big part that getting out is not very easy

[@jaym9846]

He said sell at the top, buy at the bottom.

[@Ramonsito1]

He DID say the reason: you won't mind if we sold a few shares of Apple, when BRK has to pay 21% tax now (whereas, if we hold and sell at a later time, we'll likely have to pay a higher percent); also, we are raising our cash position at this time of uncertainty (implied: economic, geopolitical), etc. He DID reveal at least two reasons. He ALSO said that he believes that Apple will nonetheless be BRK's largest equity position in the not too distant future. Perhaps listen again?

[@fahadgilani7817]

He did in the last 10 seconds of the clip. He expects taxes to rise and so he’s interested in increasing his cash position for now (to buy cheaper later).

[@boomclash101]

He said he sold because it's a business. Meening there is no emotion just taking profit. And I believe he didn't sell it all.

[@AdamCronk-bs1sj]

This was hard.... god bless you Mr Buffett and may god bless our friend Charlie up there.

In Summary, Warren is saying the US Govt is spending like a drunken sailor and eventually this outrageous spending will need to be paid for through a higher tax rate. He's happy to pay a 21% tax on his Apple gains now than having to pay a higher tax rate down the road.

Two things: First, Apple was always Greg's choice and his convition. Second, Warren never gives away decisions directly. At 5:41 he basically says those stocks are very overpriced and Berkshire decided to build cash positions, to buy up companies at a better price later, meaning he (and Greg) thinks Apple is overpriced to it's performance.

[@jimson3785]

Needing a yes or no answer is a you problem. Learn to read between the lines. He explained precisely why he sold. He prefers cash over equities at the moment because he believes the government will raise taxes, so he sold now to take advantage of the current lower tax rate.
