Warren Buffett’s 2020 Scorecard (Morning Star)
Billionaire investor Warren Buffett had a mixed year by his standards, with some winners such as Apple and Snowflake balanced by banks and energy. In a tough year for most investors, even Warren Buffett had a mixed year by his standards. The share price of his Berkshire Hathaway (BRBK.B) investment company inched forward by just 2.5%, lagging major US benchmarks like the S&P 500. Top holding Apple (AAPL) had a stellar year and an investment in data IPO Snowflake (SNOW) proved an immediate hit. But there were a number of misses too, with investments in US banks and financial services proving costly.

Looks like he is right also;
he warned for years he would most likely underperform. ...........
 
AAPL has saved Buffett from complete disaster. His 1960’s portfolio of banks, oils, chemicals, etc are pretty much exactly what nobody wants to own anymore.
Of course the media still slobbers all over him but facts are he’s been a massive under-performer for almost two decades.
 
actually, grandpa Buffett represents a repressive force to the green energy movement. his fund invested in utility companies that ensure the rules and regulations put in place to maintain the status quo, so they can earn 8% per year on their investment. the rules and regulations make it hard for a person to roll out a small scale solar project. PBS has a good documentary film on this. I think it was released last year.

Doesn't look too bad (green line) comparing with QQQ (black line) 20 years.
