Buffett And Oil
Did hedge fund managers get sucked in by all that millennial mumbo-jumbo on renewable energy.
It sounds like Buffett can read graphs better than hedge fund managers.
Oil is up 8% today.
It's being reported that Buffett loaded up on shares in oil stocks just as hedge funds were liquidating theirs.
Buffett says he loves dividends. According to this source, OXY raised its dividend 1200% (no typo) in February, 2022.
It's an open-book test.
