Among Warren Buffett’s biggest all-time winners is Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO).   Buffett owns 400 million shares of the stock, and paid a split-adjusted average price of less than $3.25 a share. Today, that stake in KO is worth about $20 billion, which means Buffett has made nearly than 1,500% on his investment. That’s truly remarkable. And Buffett obviously made a great decision when he bought KO. You probably know most of that part of the story, but what you may not know is that Buffett still fought to get the best price possible on his buy. In fact, in at least one case,… Read More

We all have to-do lists that grow longer every day. Many of us look at what needs to be done right now, and we deal with things as they become urgent. You could say we have a short-term focus. For example, as I look out the window, I see tumbleweed piled up against the fence. The wind blows it into the fence, and, in a perfect world, I’d get out there and throw it to the other side so the wind could blow it to Nebraska or wherever tumbleweed goes. If I don’t do that, it weakens the fence, and… Read More

It’s been widely distributed and readily available, but it was often only available as dried leaves. Availability in other forms is one of the most exciting changes in the market right now. Researchers have long known that there are hundreds of different compounds in the cannabis plant. In recent years they have learned to isolate some of these compounds to produce specific pharmaceutical and other beneficial effects. This is… Read More

Last week, I wrote about the Federal Reserve and how their plans to buy bonds was a form of quantitative easing that should boost the economy. Since then, some new economic data has shown that this may be just what we need. Retail sales slipped in the latest data release. Sales declined 0.3%, the first drop since February. CNBC reported that this is “raising fears that a slowdown in the American manufacturing sector could be starting to bleed into the consumer side of the economy.” I believe the most important part of the news was how wrong… Read More

Last week, I wrote about the Federal Reserve and how their plans to buy bonds was a form of quantitative easing that should boost the economy. Since then, some new economic data has shown that this may be just what we need. Retail sales slipped in the latest data release. Sales declined 0.3%, the first drop since February. CNBC reported that this is “raising fears that a slowdown in the American manufacturing sector could be starting to bleed into the consumer side of the economy.” I believe the most important part of the news was how wrong analysts were. They had been expecting an increase of 0.3%. Analysts seem to be out of sync with consumers, and that tends to happen at important turning points in the economy. For now, this is news to watch. One bad month for retailers isn’t something the Fed (or investors) should act on. But the Fed should be worried that this weakness comes at the same time as manufacturing is showing cause for concern. —Recommended Link— These 12 words have paid $1,200 a week, for the past 84 weeks Hundreds of baby boomers are quitting their… Read More

Have you ever stopped to consider all of the potential risks you could run into during your day? I don’t recommend it; it’s not a pretty picture. Every day, we face an almost infinite number of risks — yet we rarely think about them. It makes sense — if we constantly ran through a list of all the risks we face during our day-to-day activities, many of us would never do anything. For instance, think about letting your kids sign up for a soccer league. There are potential risks associated with driving to and from the field, unknown risks from other parents whom you know nothing about, general risks associated with being in public, risks of being exposed to someone who is sick… and we haven’t even gotten to the risks associated with actually playing soccer! Instead of being crippled by fear of risk, we buy auto, home, health and life insurance to protect ourselves from significant risks that are difficult to quantify. But when it comes to investing, few take a similar approach. Rather than thinking about specific risks and setting up safeguards accordingly, many investors are content to just sit on their hands and tell themselves, “I’m focused… Read More
