Good companies, solid financials, reasonably priced price earnings, good gross profit, margin and a moat as big as possible on their products. I won’t be shy with my suggestions, MO, JNJ, KO, MPLX, AAPL, GOOG, RTX, PANW, BKH.
So a bad move defines BKH? Got it. I guess that those OKLO investors think that they are better than Buffet. It reminds me of the Big Short: "Who is Warren Buffet"?
JPM,CAT,AVGO,MSFT,LMT,BKH Most of them are just boring but the second you see them drop,buy them like your life depends on it
Her mother owned 2,2% of BKH. I'm sure she would give her the money if her father really denied it.. Anyway she has been a billionaire for at least 20 years since her mother passed in 2002" and left her and her two brothers more than $3,3 Billion in shares.
He is turning BKH into the new LTCM. Expect him to plow big bucks in to long dated UST and then gear the whole thing up as rates drop back to zero in the coming years. They probably would be happy to spend $1 TN on long dated UST yielding 5%pa.
Like any stock, when you buy it matters obviously. Here are some utilities that are pretty close right now: BKH ES EVRG WEC AEP LNT NJR I would guess that there are others, but those are the ones I have in my portfolio or on my watch list
this mofo so eager to short BKH he is already writing Buffet's eulogy.
They are investing at a very different scale to 99.9999% of the market. BKH needs to find very large companies of quality trading at a fair price and that is very difficult to do. Its a different sort of problem then folks like us face but its a problem all the same.
BKH and XEL though I would call them cheap
If I were just sort of buying and forgetting I would aim for companies that I had a relatively high degree of confidence in still being positioned similarly or better 10 years from now. In tech I would be most inclined towards Amazon and Microsoft probably. I don't think Apple is a bad choice but I have always had some skepticism about it being the Oldsmobile or Cadillac of tech. A huge part of its value comes from high end consumer loyalty and if that loyalty fades it would end up very overvalued. Mind you, I'm not saying this will happen, just that it is a risk. With Google I am quite confident that they will stay at the center of innovation for the foreseeable future. My concern there is that the way they are monetized (ads) doesn't have a lot to do with innovation. So, if ad revenue takes a big and lasting hit (which is a known risk) then you could end up with a much bigger version of our well known Not Incredibly Profitable Really Cool Disruptor type of company. The other way I could go is just very basic basic products, like food (ADM, Bunge), liquor (MGPI), or electrical utilities (e.g ED, BKH, etc.).
>Organic\_Reputation\_6 BKH doesn't own any AMD or Microsoft, so that doesn't play at all into the OP's hypothetical. My point was you shift from safe to risky when the market bottoms, plenty of people here were shilling ARK 12-18 months ago, buying it now actually has upside again provided you have patience. Do I love the idea of loading up on a fund filled with Roku in 2023, no, no i dont. But does Ark have a better chance of showing a higher % yield than Brk whenever the next bull run is, yes they do.
ED. Utilities are generally safe and boring. ED is maybe a little overvalued due to name recognition, so something like BKH is sort of low key ED.
ED or a similar utility (e.g. BKH). If you are pouring all your money into one stock and not moving it then the #1 priority is safety. Electricity isn't going away (unless we all do) and they are basically legal monopolies with rules in place to ensure they get a "fair profit". There are blue chips I would be more inclined towards with different parameters because of higher upside but not the same assurance of long term safety (even if they look very safe in the short-medium term...like FB, lol).
I see, hmm, I think some of the more direct answer to your question might have to do with the concept of direct investing into the individual companies that the S&P lists. Your odds of performing better than the S&P are greater if you own the stocks directly rather than have your money held in the S&P. I know that is a gross oversimplification but I believe that might explain some of their performance, that being said; I think it isn't all that fair or proper to compare/contrast BKH's performance to others that are more strictly investment funds like PE, HF's and others.
BKH. Yield is currently 3% and it's price is below it's pre-Covid high. I like it because it is solid (as utilities should be unless they start massive forest fires or something) and it is priced below some comparable companies that have a higher profile (e.g. ED).
BKH, because the world still loves electricity.
Found the guy who another the BKH stock!
Please do some more DD and read some Berkshire Hathaway annual letters. He is VERY clear that investors should be in index funds. The fact you don't know that and quote Buffett in this light is a real tragedy. You do realize his ENTIRE inheritance to his wife is famously in 90% SP500 and 10% U.s. Treasuries don't you? Guess not. Or that the bet he made with a famous hedge fund that this hedge fund (who are the epitome of active management which INCLUDES security selection) could not beat a simple sp500 index fund over 10 years. Yep, he RESOUNDEDLY won that bet. It is a real shame folks on this board are not more well read on the facts and just quickly sprout of quotes from Buffett as if that is his actual advice to retail investors. BTW, he does diversify as well. Link below shows how many holding BKH own. As you can see it is A LOT more then ONE or a COUPLE... [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_assets\_owned\_by\_Berkshire\_Hathaway](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_Berkshire_Hathaway) Please do some more reading on Buffett advice to the retail investor before making mischaracterizations of his quotes as it pertains to retail investors.
BKH. Black Hills Corporation is an energy company which recently started investing in green energy. It also took a hit from the pandemic and has yet to fully recover to its quite stable price. This combined with high dividends and the fact there will only ever be an increasing demand for energy, it’s a steal right now.
Not to sure, but maybe it can help you on your way. \- Armco - seems to have turned into AK Steel holding - and hmm looks like maybe taken over by Cleveland-cliffs, that is trading at 16 dollars pr. share. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AK\_Steel\_Holding](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AK_Steel_Holding) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland-Cliffs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland-Cliffs) [https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/CLF?p=CLF&.tsrc=fin-srch](https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/CLF?p=CLF&.tsrc=fin-srch) And looks like - Missouri Public Service Company is now part of Black hills corp. If so Black hill corp is trading at 66 dollars pr. share [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquila,\_Inc](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquila,_Inc). [https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BKH?p=BKH&.tsrc=fin-srch](https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BKH?p=BKH&.tsrc=fin-srch) I'm not from the US - so I don't know the rules what happens with stocks, when companies get taken over. But maybe try call the companies Investor relations team, talk to your bank, or a lawyer, that knows something about company take overs. Hope it this will get you a bit further on your research.
