Warren buffett strategy: When billionaires from all over the world were losing their wealth due to the devastation in the stock market, Warren Buffet was quietly increasing his property. There was chaos in the global markets after US President Donald Trump imposed heavy tariffs on 184 countries.
The stock markets declined and the US market reached the lowest level after March 2020. But amid this decline, Warren Buffet not only saved himself, but also increased it to $ 155 billion in his net worth to $ 11.5 billion.
Everyone’s money drowned except Buffet
The total wealth of 500 richest people in the world suffered a loss of more than $ 500 billion within two days. Only on Friday, billionaires suffered a loss of $ 329 billion, which is the biggest one day loss ever after the biggest decline of the Kovid-19 period.
Alan Musk suffered the biggest shock, whose assets declined by $ 135 billion. Mark Zuckerberg lost 27 billion, Jeff Bezos 45.2 billion and Bill Gates lost $ 3.38 billion. In contrast, Warren Buffet was the only billionaire whose property increased.
Did Warren Buffet already know everything
The biggest reason for this was the decision of Buffet, which he took in 2023. In fact, when the world was earning profit from the stock market, at that time she reduced the investment in the stock market and decided to keep it in cash at about $ 300 billion. That is, he took out this money from investment and kept it in the bank account.
Apart from this, in 2024, he neither made aggressive investments, nor put his hand in a new big deal. Instead, he started selling stocks slowly from his portfolio. Berkshire Hathaway had assets like cash and cash of 334 billion by the end of the year.
This cash of Buffet has now become about one-third of the total market value of Berkshire, which shows how cautious they were about the high valuations of the market in 2024. During this time Berkshire sold shares of $ 143 billion, which is several times more than $ 41 billion sold in 2023 and 34 billion $ 34 billion sold in 2022.
