  • Behind The Curtains At Warren Buffett's Berkshire [View article]
    Size? That's not much of an argument. Stocks tend to rise in proportion to their earnings growth over time. Berkshire beats the market over time because of this.

  • Behind The Curtains At Warren Buffett's Berkshire [View article]
    poortorich,

    I do think that BRK-A or B will allow investors to beat the market going forward. Berkshire has beaten the S&P 500 in the past and there is no reason that it won't continue to do so. Berkshire is expected to grow earnings annually at 12% for the next five years. This is higher than the expected growth of the S&P of 9%. That extra earnings growth and the attractive valuation will propel Berkshire higher than the market over time IMHO.

    Why would you think otherwise?

    Mr. Matt,

    Excellent point - I just can't afford to own everything that I write about.

    I write about many stocks, ETFs, funds, etc. I don't desire to own all of them even if I'm bullish on them. However, I may consider purchasing BRK.B sometime in the future, just not in the next 72 hours.

  • Should Apple Buy Back Shares Or Increase Dividends? [View article]
    I like rnsmith's idea - do both - increase the dividend and increase the stock buyback. The stock might be out of fashion at the moment, but it is valued well for any new positive innovations.

    Be Here Now,

    That's a good point - each individual investing situation warrants its own decision.

    KMR certainly has its place in the investment world. However, for those looking to generate income, KMP would be the pick.

    Turbo Tax and other software easily handles the reporting of MLPs.

    Packer Man,

    Thank you for catching that. Maybe I had Kimberly-Clark on my mind when typing. A correction form has been submitted.

    sumflow,

    The 11.75% annual earnings growth rate was derived from yahoo finance. http://yhoo.it/130a5Ru

    The link that you provided is referring to the long-term distributions growth rate, not annual earnings.

    musherga,

    Thank you for bringing up Sarepta and its antiviral efforts. I know that the company is mostly known for its development of eteplirsen for MD.

    zz,

    Yes, we realize that the stock prices will probably fall again after the outbreak news dies down. That's what happened with the Swine Flu a few years ago. It could set-up a nice short play.

    Healthcare Specialist,

    Thank you for adding Inovio Pharma (INO) to the discussion. It looks like another promising company.
