It has been a rough stretch for Warren Buffett, but the legendary investor’s long-term record is still guaranteed to pack in the faithful when Berkshire Hathaway holds its annual meeting festivities this weekend.
Swedroe, who is director of research for Buckingham Strategic Wealth, recalled a client who couldn’t be persuaded by hard evidence and data on how bear markets inevitably end and go on to set new highs and the merits of passive investing over active, instead focusing on doom-laden forecasts. But without a reminder, investors who profess to emulate Buffett’s principles often tend to forget that advice, Swedroe says. They get the itch to become stock pickers despite Buffett’s advice to stick to indexing, they attempt to time the market and end up chasing returns.
The Q&A won’t all be about investment advice. Berkshire’s stock BRK.B, -0.36% BRK.A, -0.52% now lags behind the S&P 500 SPX, -0.21% over the past five, 10 and 15-year periods, notes Barron’s, though its performance since Buffett took it over in 1965 solidly eclipses the index. While the types of stocks Buffett prefers may be relatively obvious, he does still have some advantages when it comes to leverage, thanks to the money thrown off by Berkshire-owned businesses and, in particular, the float held by Berkshire’s insurance business. The float is money collected from insurance premiums but not yet paid out to meet claims.
