The Oracle delivered some secrets of intelligent investing in a press conference following the Berkshire Hathaway annual investor meeting:
- Buy low-cost index funds, which will outperform the majority of other investors (the vast majority).
- Avoid hedge funds.
Buffett also said he hoped that Berkshire would outperform the S&P by a couple of percentage points (which wouldn't be surprising, given the value effect). He added that he would be "amazed" if Berkshire did any better than that.
I read this blog a little late. Today, the recession had hit all industries with a surprising turbulent blow. The stock market is volatile for any strategic and gainful move. Though the market had experienced a 10% jump, it is not a guarantee. Investors and traders are hopeful that the market is recovering soon. The best thing to invest money today is placing it in a low risk investment and high yield savings accounts.
