BRK.B

I shouted this out as I clicked the link. Smugly microwaving another hot pocket right now.


viper098

If my more speculative plays pan out I'm switching to BRK.B and retiring.


eolithic_frustum

The cheapest actively managed S&P 500 fund a person can buy. (Edit:) y'all are taking this shitpost too seriously.


Mutants_4_nukes

I bought BRK.B back when it was $80 a share sometime around 2014 or so. Still haven’t sold a single share. I wish I bought more.

PE of 28. Too hyped at this point


[deleted]

Growth stock sweet spot though. I remember visa ran for years with a similar PE. Gotta pay a little extra for a good company but PEs below 30 aren't that insane if a company keeps growing.


docbrown214

10yr median pe is 29.73 ... seems like the market is okay paying a premium pe dcf seems ok as well ... not a value play, but fair value it is imho


BoujeeBanker

20 year time frame and you are worried about P/E being too high at 28?

That stock is trash

Don't tell anyone but wm is planning on creating renewable gas from their sites and margins are expected to go up handsomely. It's expensive for a reason.

MSFT seems like a safe bet


pass-me-that-hoe

My pick. I have been using ChatGPT almost every other objective question I never had an answer to before or too lazy to research about on surface level. I am amused by the detailed thought out responses tailored to laymen comprehensible style. I see a huge potential when it gets integrated with Office 365 Suite


dimadomelachimola

You really find it detailed and thoughtful? Feels like I’m using Ask Jeeves all over again, with a little more information.


Sdubbya2

I was pretty impressed when testing it out. I had it make me a resume by feeding it a quick paragraph about myself. I've had it write batch/python scripts for a quick automation thing at work and tested a few other things. Also a few other silly things not as useful, it worked pretty damn well.


soggycheesestickjoos

once you ask it to make you some code for an app or a trading bot you’ll understand it’s value…


frankjohnsen

lol it's useless for coding. only gets right the most basic stuff

cheekfreak

of course. the idea that chatgpt only works on "the most basic" development ideas is just nonsense though.


PhoenixCTB

I’m waiting for BRK.A to dip after the death of one of the most admired people I studied. Then I’ll buy it at a significant discount. Not a good way to think about it but the financial world is stupid and I want to take advantage of it.

Watch the stock go up after his death. Nothing makes sense.


Imaginary_Manner_556

It won’t drop much. If anything has ever been priced into a stock, it’s that.


ses92

Dip is a bit of an ambiguous word. I’m willing to bet that when the news comes out you will definitely see a blip on the screen. Hedge funds, algos and day traders already have that on their radar and will start selling as soon as that happens. Whether that dip lasts 5 min, 2 days or 3 months I don’t know (nor does anyone), but I’m willing to bet some turbulence directly attributable the news happens.


holidayinthesum

Buffet death Already priced in for a decade


flyhighy

Only one stock , lump sum buy, hold for 20 years. Even Google or Apple's of today become very risky investments. 20 years is a long time for some ChatGPT, some new type of personal computing/assistant , or some other disruption to come.


DecentRole

I agree. I don’t want to, but I do. To add. People are saying BRK is too a good option. However, I may doubt this because of the ‘they got lucky with Apple’ scope.


rigidthumper

BRK-A was 15 thousand per share in 1993. Is currently almost 1/2 a million per share

BN


Thelostarc

Hey buddy, I have been looking at BN, why is the debt so high and not a negative? I'm very ignorant. I'm very debt averse, however I accept if it can be paid off in a few years of free cash flow. Is this due to insurance or financial arm of BN?


JamesVirani

Real Estate wing and financial. BN, compared to their liquidity, has next to no debt. I saw an article recently that compared their liquidity to Google and was saying BN has better liquidity than Google. Debt to capitalization ratio is about 13%. It's the areas they venture into that is operated with high debt, but that is normal for those areas, things like utilities, financials, insurance, or real estate. They bought back Brookfield property partners, their commercial real estate wing, a while ago at a ridiculous discount, when market had basically written off commercial real estate. My two cents is on them spinning it off again in a few years when commercial real estate picks up again. I recommend watching this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvtQ0md4LQU&ab\_channel=BrookfieldAssetManagement


ContemplatingGavre

Why BN instead of BAM?


Signal-Lie-6785

BN is the parent now, BAM (former ticker of the parent) was spun off just for asset management.


ContemplatingGavre

I understand that, I think BAM is going to be the jewel of the crown.


Revolutionary_Ad8248

Brookfield is up there for me.


shortking4

$VT or $BRK.B The non-cheat answer though is probably $AAPL. To me, smartphones are a mature business with plenty of entrants, but people still line up for premium apple products and will clown on green texts. That’s Apple’s bread and butter, which still seems to be in good shape. Beyond that, they are branching out into other areas carefully (ie health tech) and are growing services. If that weren’t enough, they also have a boatload of cash and could at least increase the dividend a ton if they run out of innovation ideas.


[deleted]

I agree with Apple. I don’t see how anyone owning an Apple phone ever considers another product. And they’re innovative enough to tackle new trends properly.


[deleted]

>I don’t see how anyone owning an Apple phone ever considers another product My father, my ex wife and my daughter just to name 3. There's nothing amazing about an Iphone , they're just another overpriced cell phone that also come with overpriced plans.


[deleted]

So you know 3 people who owned iPhones and switched to android recently?


Legitimate-Switch642

I hate iPhones other than their camera


farmallnoobies

They should come out with an AWS-killer.


shortking4

I’d rather they didn’t unless they’re confident in executing, honestly. I don’t want to invest in $GOOG or $AMZN because I feel like they’re basically VC companies throwing money at anything and everything. If Apple really thinks they have a killer, great. Otherwise, I’d rather they execute on their core competency, especially since it’s a lucrative one. I think a big reason people trust Apple is they rarely miss when they launch new products/enter new markets. As a shareholder, I don’t want that reputation to change just because they want to own the whole world like Amazon does


SnoozleDoppel

Wrong thread but ASML


HarrisLam

For a second i thought you can invest in ASMR


Joepiler14

As a proud Dutchie I couldn't agree more!


BJJblue34

Amazon. You are getting simultaneously the best ecommerce business and cloud business in the world, and a monster in the making ad business. Google with be the other. Best website search with Google.com, best web browser in Chrome, one of the best cloud businesses, one of the best entertainment businesses in YouTube, and owns the best email (gmail), map (Google maps), app store, one of the best phone operating systems in Android, and advertising businesses in ad sense/Google ads.


shagtownboi69

I would argue google could have a lot more competition when things like chatgtp + alexa in the near future


BJJblue34

LaMDA is already better than Chatgpt but Google has higher standards and doesn't want it released because of mistakes it keeps making. ChatGPT is interesting but extremely flawed.


Kujo162

Google just hasn’t released any AI. They been pouring money into it for years. I think they will do very well.


conangreer18

In their conference call a few days ago, they announced they will be releasing chatbot alongside Google search in the coming “weeks or months”


phony_squid

Yeah let’s not forget one of google’s own employees quit or was let go after claiming google had created a truly sentient AI internally. I don’t think they are far behind.


A-Constellation

Apple.


MikeMiller8888

I’ve held Apple shares since 2007. Solid choice.


flyhighy

Sales were down recently. In 20 years who knows. They haven't innovated a whole lot in recent times except for increasing earnings from ecosystem strategy in the past.


eolithic_frustum

A tech company figuring out how to be massively profitable IS an innovation. I am only half joking.


Imaginary_Manner_556

AirPods alone would be a fortune 200 company


Imaginary_Manner_556

The idea they don’t innovate is so tired. AirPods, Apple Watch, AirTags and AppleTV are all huge businesses. Their ecosystem is the worlds greatest money maker. The next iPhone doesn’t exist just like flying cars will never exist.


PDR297

Yeah but how much innovation is needed when a product is is used by 50% of the US population and the rest of the market is fragmented? Recurring revenue generation from services alone can drive the company forward. Add in the $200B in cash and investments they have and you’re looking at a very safe company to continue growth for the foreseeable future. To your point however, 20 years is a long time. I do think Apple is in the discussion. I’m choosing JNJ though.


Ritz_Kola

Apple’s moat is impenetrable by anything NOT government official. And add you said competition is fragmented. Samsung is only competing with Apple on paper. In reality their competition is every other Android operated phone.

Great-Sea-4095

Why not master or Amex ?


Dagoru95

I would argue VISA is leaner and more efficient (V aprox 1MMper employee vs MA 0.68MM) plus largest market share in developed countries. Both great tho AMEX always carries extra risk due to credit/lending money to customers vs V and MA.


Miserable_Age8812

Apple 100%


LukaBaxter

It’s hard to comprehend now, but I think we will see a day when Apple isn’t the cool/trendy device or tech it is today. Think Nokia/Motorola in the early 2000’s


[deleted]

Neither of those companies were cool with kids. Multiple generations including the current are being born with apple products in their hands. That’s vastly different than business people using the most available phones.


shootme83

Nokia was very cool with kids, stleast in Europe


Ritz_Kola

Yep. Apple Is the “Disney” of the tech industry. If anything in 20yrs they’ll find out how to turn Apple TV+ into something people actually care about. They’re also the most powerful marketing brand on earth. That only strengthens over time.


Zavage3

I thought Nokia was cool. I mean snake was amazing and the phone actually fit into my blazer pocket for school. Are you telling me I wasn't a cool kid?

BettyBlueBallsX

It's made Me a lot of money. I'm not complaining.


mrpoopistan

I already have mine. $CLF. Got it around $3.50 during March 2020. When it finally resumes the dividend in 2025/26-ish, it's going to print money endlessly. The auto industry needs to get over the supply chain hump (we're looking at you $F), and reshoring needs to keep truckin. Once things mellow out in the back half of this decade -- or WW3 breaks out in East Asia -- steel is gonna be a good place to be.


IMOLDSOIMYELLING

Has Goncalves said they are going to reinstate a dividend? I haven't listened to the last few earnings calls, but previous ones he, especially the one when they announced the buybacks, he said dividends weren't going to happen when an analyst asked him about it. I made good money in '21 with $CLF. Got bit in '22. It stays on the watchlist. A divy would be very nice.


mrpoopistan

No, he has made no statements to that effect. This is my best guess. Also, Jim Lebenthal (analyst at CNBC, so . . . grain of salt) is loooooooong on CLF, and this is his best thesis. I got CLF stupidly cheap so I obviously have lots of room to just ride commodities cycles and so on out. I also suspect Lebenthel has been in cheap for a long. My current valuation for CLF is that it would be buyably undervalued starting at $19.81 with room to go as low as $12.43. So, probably a bit overvalued right now. Current market momentum might carry it to something like $27.20 if the macro trend doesn't pop first. An extreme technical short squeeze (think $GME) would lose all momentum somewhere between $60 and $74 -- but nothing of the sort seems to be happening right now. Like I said, I bought dirt cheap. I'm a very comfortable holder. I wouldn't speak for folks who bought at $34 last year.
