After looking at the wild swings in my portfolio in the previous year, I realise that I need some stability in my portfolio. Hence, for these few months, I am steering my allocations toward more stable, large cap companies.
Here are the stocks I bought last month:
Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B)
I have avoided BRK.B for years because I have labelled it as a boring, trudging elephant. However, after experiencing ‘exciting’ rides in my small cap stocks, I start to appreciate
slow and
boring. I bought more shares at
$144.67. And will be looking to add more to it such that it becomes a larger part of my portfolio.
With the multitude of businesses under Berkshire’s portfolio, I believe that investing in BRK.B is akin to investing in an Index fund, but … even better.
