| Warren Buffett is a true investing all-star. In fact, many consider him the greatest investor of all time. As CEO of conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-B), Buffett posted an average 20% compounded annual gain in Berkshire's share price between 1965 - the year he took control of the company - and 2024. That's double the 10% annual gain of the S&P 500. That's why Alexander Green added Berkshire to the Oxford All-Star Portfolio in The Oxford Communiqué back in January of 2001. Berkshire was a natural fit for the All-Star Portfolio, which is a diversified basket of funds and holding companies managed by some of the world's top-performing money managers. This is what Alex wrote when he picked Berkshire... While he says his favorite holding period is "forever" and that he often makes more money when "sitting on his hands" than when active, the reality is that Buffet is a savvy money manager, forever on the prowl for outstanding investments and winnowing out stragglers that no longer meet his strict criteria. And what an investment Berkshire has been for Oxford Club Members. The stock has returned 1,070% since Alex added it, soaring from about $45 to $521 over the course of 25 years. For comparison, the S&P 500 returned 321% over that period. |
