Mint Quick Edit | Is Warren Buffett’s investment inactivity justified?

Live Mint  

Globally, value investors led by billionaire Warren Buffett have had a hard time these past few years, given their commitment not to buy overpriced shares. Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway ended 2024 sitting atop a $334-billion pile of cash and its equivalents. McKinsey Global Institute recently identified 18 hot arenas of rivalry expected to thrive over the next 15 years: e-commerce, cloud services, artificial intelligence, semiconductors, cybersecurity, electric vehicles, shared autonomous vehicles, batteries, streaming video, digital ads, video games, non-medical biotech, obesity drugs, robotics, modular construction, nuclear fission, future air mobility and space. But so long as innovation doesn’t flag, even value investors should be able to make picks.
