    What would you say about a hedge fund that puts 40% of their capital in one stock?

    His short term trading was years ago, but he did it when he thought it made sense for his investors. There were many years Buffett literally looked at thousands of companies in a year, starting with the letter A.

    Why can't he simply buy only the stocks that will rise a minimum of 20 percent each day and for sure not buy any stocks that will lose him money? Money management? Bet it all.. let her rip... preferably on maximum margin.

    I Need Some Reassurance Here

    You are a total idiot who should not be trading as you will blow up too much time and money. If you can not hook up with a winning trader on a peronal level who will help you, and few can, you have almost 0 chance in the foreseeable future. No paid gurus. Your "understanding" and thoughts are...

    What would you say about a hedge fund that puts 40% of their capital in one stock?

    Buffett had almost all of his personal worth in the trade. And if the trade went really bad, he still would have had a sizable war chest. But yes... I am sure Buffett was extra happy the way things went. Winning was not 100 percent.

    What would you say about a hedge fund that puts 40% of their capital in one stock?

    Over 50 percent of Buffett's beating the market came from his sagely leveraging his insurance float.
