51. Does Warren Buffett Even Matter?


Listen Later

Did you know that Berkshire Hathaway stock has outperformed the market since the market peak before the coronavirus pandemic? That alone makes the title of this episode a touch rhetorical, we realize, but there is a broader point about how relevant Buffett's investing style and decades of pithy advice are anymore. Ahead of the upcoming Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting, which Jeff and Jason will be attending, they discuss Buffett and Berkshire, including how the public has viewed Buffett in the past, versus how Berkshire's stock has actually performed. 


In the second part of the show, we give an update on the 2023 Smattering Portfolio Contest, discuss Jason's latest stupid investment, and share some lessons we can all learn. 


Companies mentioned: AAPL, AMZN, ATVI, BOA, BRK.A, FRC, HD, HOG, JPM, LMND, LOB, LOW, MSFT, ODFL, SNOW
