TRV - Wow! Buffett Sold 19 Stocks in the First Quarter
Despite a record first-quarter loss for Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B), there's little denying that Warren Buffett is one of the greatest investors of our time. He's created close to $400 billion in value for Berkshire's shareholders over many decades, and he's handily outperformed the S&P 500 (inclusive of dividends) by more than 2,700,000% since 1964.
As a general rule, when Warren Buffett buys or sells a stock, Wall Street and retail investors tend to pay close attention. That's why the filing of Form 13F with the Securities and Exchange Commission last Friday, May 15, was so anticipated.
