Most anticipated investing story this coming week? Warren Buffett's BRK quarterly SEC filing.
  • will be released Monday, August 14, 2023.
  • it's hard to believe that one investor owns 24% of an oil company the size of OXY; amazing.
  • biggest question: did Buffett sell PARA; my hunch, he did not; having said that, lousy stock in a lousy sector; have no idea what he was thinking, though I have my thoughts.
Laser-focused on dividends:
  • no need to add further comments to this article on KMI -- 6.4% dividend
  • OXY: 1.09% dividend
Pipelines: should be added to the "utilities" bucket. 
  • pipelines will grow assets only by acquisitions; new pipelines "dead'
  • shares pretty much reflect demand for product being shipped
  • does that make KMI nothing more than a "utility"?
KMI

KMI: ticker, max:


AMAZON, AAPL, Nvidia, link here. GQG Partners, Fort Lauderdale, Florida:
  • adds to its positions in the "magnificent seven megacap stocks:

NEW YORK, Aug 11 (Reuters) - Australia-listed investment firm GQG Partners added more shares of Nvidia Corp in the second quarter, ending June with $5.9 billion invested in the chipmaker, according to regulatory filings on Friday.

Shares in Nvidia are up roughly 180% year to date and reached $1 trillion in market capitalization, amid excitement over advancements in artificial intelligence.

GQG held 13.9 million shares of Nvidia at the end of June, or 5.7 million more than it did on March 31.

The firm also built a new position in Amazon.com Inc of roughly $2 billion, besides increasing existing positions in some of the other so-called "magnificent seven" megacap stocks": Alphabet Inc, Apple Inc and Microsoft Corp.

Periodically, folks should go back and re-read the history of the Covid-19 pandemic, starting with a short overview, such as that posted by wiki. It really was an amazing time. 

Wuhan flu. The blog Coronavirus: statistics    Seasonal flu: CDC.  

The data at this page can no longer be accurate. So many folks in the US are taking their own tests at home and not reporting results to anyone or anywhere. But it's all we have. Most recently:

Ranked by new cases, of the top eleven, note which countries did not make the top ten list:

For those who did not notice, keep reading.

Fifth Risk: written during the first half of the Trump administration, The Fifth Risk framed the federal government as a manager of a portfolio of existential risks; natural disasters, nuclear weapons, financial panics, hostile foreigners, energy security, food security, and on and on and on. [He could have included other risks: loss of free speech; loss of rights to own guns; loss of right to privacy and on and on and on.]
This, Premonition, may be one of the most interesting of the lot. Told by a great story-teller. No index. Will have to find out for myself his thoughts on Fauci and gain-of-function. Later: review over at The [London] Guardian. Less than impressed. I agree. Explains why Trump did not fire Fauci: he did not have that authority.
