Warren Buffett, one of the most successful investors in the world, maybe underestimated but will never be denied. He is considered the most intelligent investor of all time.
Recently the boomerangs have deemed the oracle of Omaha a relic of ages. They term him old and not skilled enough to handle trades in this corona-stricken investment landscape.
The boomerangs don’t know that Warren Buffett has seen more cycles than they do or any other traders they might know of.
Today, Warren Buffett is re-upping is an investment in oil and out to show us why.
The Intelligent Investor Pet Oil Stock is on the top
In January Occidental Petroleum, Warren Buffett’s big oil bet was almost $48 per share. This didn’t last a month, and there was an economic shutdown, and the price of the shares was crawling along at $10.
At this point, the world’s most intelligent investor lost a massive amount of money, and he continued to sit on the sidelines.
Analysts all over the world had a lot of questions in mind and started wondering if he had lost his touch. David Portnoy, a day trader, claimed that he was smarter than Warren Buffett.
In mid-April, Berkshire Hathaway an American multinational conglomerate holding company purchased 17 million shares of OXY, and analysts were left blasted.
Currently, Occidental Petroleum is the S&P 500’s top performer. It has increased up the ladder by 20% since Buffett’s purchase in April.
This is just the beginning. For companies like Occidental Petroleum to build sustained rally, oil prices and demand need to keep rising.
You should know that this is not the only win Buffett has recently made.
