Guess Which Stocks Warren Buffett Bought: 4th-Quarter Contest
GuruFocus runs a contest every quarter in which people guess the stocks they think Warren Buffett (Trades, Portfolio) might have bought.
The fourth-quarter contest begins today. To participate, pick THREE stocks you think he purchased in the three months from Oct. 1 to Dec. 31, 2019 and post them into the "comments" section below this article.
Yes, the contest does include stocks his two portfolio managers, Ted Weschler and Todd Combs, may also have purchased. It also excludes the share repurchases of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B).
Those who guess correctly will win a signed copy of GuruFocus founder Charlie Tian's highly rated book, "Invest Like a Guru."
Berkshire Hathaway will release Buffett's portfolio of fourth-quarter buys and sales on or around Feb. 14. We'll announce the winner(s) shortly after that.
While it did not add to any holdings in the third quarter, Berkshire listed new positions in Occidental Petroleum Corp. (NYSE:OXY), which had been previously disclosed, and furniture company RH (NYSE:RH).
What did it do in the fourth quarter? You tell us.
