Magic? Why Is Berkshire Hathaway Up 17% This Year
Briefly

The article discusses the poor performance of the Magnificent Seven stocks in 2023, particularly in the face of disappointing earnings, while highlighting Berkshire Hathaway's strong showing with a 17% increase. Berkshire's success is attributed to its lack of tech reliance and a diversified portfolio. CEO Warren Buffett emphasizes a long-term investment strategy focusing on undervalued companies with strong brands. The firm also maintains substantial stakes in large private entities, particularly in the insurance sector, further stabilizing its position.
Berkshire Hathaway has outperformed other megacap stocks by focusing on diversified investments and long-term holdings, leading to a 17% gain while others struggled.
Despite the underperformance of the Magnificent Seven, Berkshire thrives due to its diversified portfolio, notably in non-tech sectors, and its strategic patience.
