Warren Buffett An Inspiration for every investor

Warren Buffett An Inspiration for every investor

Warren Buffet’s portfolio consists of 44 publicly traded companies. The vast majority of them (32) provide dividends, a number of which provide annual dividends in excess of four percent.

How does the “Oracle of Omaha” do it? “My wealth has come from a combination of living in America, some lucky genes, and compound interest,” Buffet said. “My luck was accentuated by my living in a market system that rewards those who can detect the mispricing of securities with sums reaching into the billions.”

What does that look like to ordinary investors? Buffet invests in shareholder-friendly companies, with strong competitive advantages that are undervalued. In a nutshell, Buffett buys good stocks at the right time, reinvests the dividends, and sticks with them for as long as they remain good companies.

It sounds simple, but it isn’t; if it was, everyone would be doing it. That said, you can emulate Warren Buffett and take advantage of the same kind of well-run, high-dividend-yielding stocks and compound interest that he does.

Looking for more of what his portfolio includes, except Verizon, WFC, GM, Plillips 66.
