Five for Friday- The Best of Buffet

By Michael Lebowitz | June 16, 2023

Last week’s screen was based on the preferred factors that infamous investor Peter Lynch used. This week we move on to Warren Buffet. Not only do we rank stocks based on a handful of Buffet’s preferred fundamental factors, but we do so on the 47 stock holdings in his portfolio holding company Berkshire Hathaway.

The pie chart below shows that Apple comprises over half of Berkshire’s holdings, and 30 of its 47 stocks constitute less than half a percent of its portfolio. The sheer number of small holdings results in a labeling issue in the chart.

Of the stocks that ranked in the top five of this screen, only one, Chevron (CVX – 6.65%), has a meaningful contribution to the portfolio.
