Buffett Likes to Be Early; Don't Rush to Follow

I am SHOCKED that his long only picks have not been positive so far in 2008. How many long only long term investors do you know that have posted positive returns in 2008?

@VIC: Top Hedge Fund Picks

They should rename this conference: pump your own book and hope you find people stupid enough to blindly follow.

What Did Buffett Buy: American Express or Wells Fargo?

I say this as a Berkshire holder for over 10 years: WHO CARES. Do your own homework and pick either AXP or WFC or pick something different altogether. Warren would never follow someone blindly and neither should any other investor.

Buffet Gets Fired Up; Deutsche Bank Passes the Buck

I noticed on your site, one of the losers you listed was Leon Black.

"Losers:

Deutsche Bank CEO Josef Ackermann blames DB's $4.2 billion first-quarter writedown, as well as its first quarterly loss since 2003, on "financial market conditions [that] "were the most difficult in recent memory."

Leon Black can't be happy about what's going on at Linens 'n Things."

I bet the performance of the fund that Leon Black has Linen & Things in is still better than that of Second Curve. You really need to stop your arrogance of calling others out for bad performance when your performance has not been good. I would also note I would love to be a loser if it meant I had a net worth of over $4 billion.

Cramer vs. Buffett: An ETF Perspective

Before my comment I must admit that I have been a Berkshire shareholder for many years. The difference between the two is that Buffett is a brilliant investor and Cramer is an entertainer who only cares about rating and book sales.
