In fact, the Berkshire vice chairman called it "insane" to teach that one has to diversify when investing in common stocks. "I have a friend who says the first rule of fishing is to fish where the fish are. We've gotten good at fishing where the fish are," the then-93-year-old Munger told the thousands of people at Berkshire's 2017 meeting. Big money is in the 'waiting'The investing sage believed that in investing, it pays to wait. Munger often defended Berkshire's inaction as he always saw the virtue of sitting on the sidelines to wait for a good opportunity.

(AP) — Charlie Munger, who helped Warren Buffett build Berkshire Hathaway into an investment powerhouse, has died at a California hospital. Berkshire Hathaway said in a statement that Munger’s family told the company that he died Tuesday morning at the hospital just over a month before his 100th birthday. “Berkshire Hathaway could not have been built to its present status without Charlie’s inspiration, wisdom and participation,” Buffett said in a statement. Munger and Buffett began buying Berkshire Hathaway shares in 1962 for $7 and $8 per share, and they took control of the New England textile mill in 1965. He also gave a significant portion of his Berkshire stock to his eight children after his wife died in 2010.

After the close Tuesday, eBay issued light fourth-quarter guidance as management warned about softening consumer demand beginning in September and extending into the current sales period, particularly in Europe. U.S. shoppers also are looking for more value, management said. I'd rather be in Walmart," Cramer said on "Squawk on the Street."

☆ Charlie Munger reflects on one investment Warren Buffett passed up — Costco
▼ + stars: | 2023-11-04 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Warren Buffett and his longtime business partner Charlie Munger almost never butt heads, but there has been one rare area of disagreement between the two investment legends. Costco has grown from less than $5 a share in the early 1980s to more than $560 a share today. 'Shoot me first' As Munger's obsession over Costco grew stronger over the years, Buffett learned to make lighthearted jokes about it. "Charlie said, 'I would like to give, once more, my speech on the virtues of Costco — with illustrations.' I kind of used them up between Costco and Apple," Buffett once said.

☆ Eyeing dividend-paying stocks? Don’t rush to pick up the richest yielding names
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-23 | by ( Darla Mercado | Cfp | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Today's higher interest rate environment drives home the reason why investors should scrutinize stocks offering tempting double-digit yields. Digging beneath the surface Multiple factors may contribute to a stock touting high dividend yields at first blush. First, there are dividend sustainers – companies that have made steady payments for years, including Merck , Johnson & Johnson and Southern Co . Investors who want to hunt dividend payers shouldn't go for the biggest yielders, but instead look for names that are in the second or third quintile among dividend payers, he said. "For many investors, you can get a pretty good dividend play and a good yield through ETFs at a low cost," said Ebersole.

The S & P 500 closed at its bear market low a year ago Thursday — ending Oct. 12, 2022, at its lowest close since November 2020 . In hindsight, that dramatic turnaround was the start of a rally that saw the S & P 500 climb 22% from the close on Oct. 12, 2022, through Wednesday. Palo Alto Networks, meanwhile, has successfully pivoted to profitability, joining the S & P 500 as a result, and repeatedly demonstrated the quality of its cybersecurity platform. Indeed, an exchange-traded fund that gives each S & P 500 constituent the same influence — the Invesco S & P 500 Equal Weight ETF — has advanced only 11.2% since Oct. 12, 2022. Viewed through the top-heavy rally lens, though, it's not a surprise to see a number of Club stocks underperforming the S & P 500.

Broadcom (AVGO), Caterpillar (CAT) and Eli Lilly (LLY) are among the 15 Club stocks with a streak of annual dividend growth that Wall Street expects to continue in their current fiscal years. Long-term investors should look to own companies with a history of dividend growth instead of chasing stocks with high yields, Morgan Stanley strategists said in a note to clients this week. However, Morgan Stanley's note made us curious to screen our portfolio for stocks with strong dividend growth track records that are expected to persist. To help us project which stocks will keep their dividend growth streaks alive, we also examined analyst estimates for total per-share payouts in their current fiscal year. Bottom line In any case, dividend growth over time is certainly welcome and can help increase total investment return, assuming the distributions are reinvested instead of taking cash.

Instacart shoppers are sometimes unable to deliver items from Costco after they've been purchased — if a customer isn't home during delivery, for example.

In the past year, clothing retailers have sought to clear excess stock that had piled up due to a shift in consumer demand to essentials from discretionary items like clothing. But with fourth-quarter temperatures expected to start off warm, according to weather tracking firm Weather Trends International, stores carrying winter styles and gear could find themselves loaded with inventory at the end of the season. European company Pepco Group (PCOP.WA) also noted that the landing of its autumn and winter clothing inventory had coincided with persistent record-warm weather in its core Central and Eastern European markets. In the United States, temperatures could rise by 2 to 12 degrees Fahrenheit on average in the October-December period compared with last year, according to Weather Trends International. Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF.N) also said there was strong demand for "seasonless products" in the second quarter, particularly in the men's category, as customers picked out year-round clothing items and styles.
