There are many speculations as to what Buffett actually has in his personal portfolio. You can probably take a good guess based upon his recent investments and Berkshire Hathaway’s American holdings, below: …
dihard, make up your mind. Either Buffett has never invested in anything other than government bonds and BH shares, or he has had a diverse portfolio over a number of years.
I’ve seen no evidence in the course of my reading about Buffett that his investments have been either double-blind or controlled by himself. In fact, I’ve read a hell of a lot more that says he is fully in charge of his money/investments, and chooses himself to get in and out of positions at certain times.
Therefore, you can’t have it both ways and then try to use them both as reasoning behind your post. Either you admit that he invests his own money according to his own whims, and is therefore a reliable sage of the market, or his money is invested for him, and he merely has a group of good advisors around him.
When you base your posts on facts, they are genuinely insightful and intelligent. When you copy-paste, they fall apart.
