The market cap of this mining company that has left Berkshire returns far behind over more than 25 years is over 50 billion.

Well it looks like Southern Copper to me.

 

You got that right.

 

The point is that there are stocks and fund managers out there who have vastly outperformed Berkshire but nobody will know because of the Buffett brainwash syndrome and the scam of charts without the dividends.

Well not me, I had my entire net worth in Southern Copper since 1996 so I'm one of the special ones. (jk)

Is that Starbucks?

 

No but commendable attempt because it looks closer and well above less than 1000% return of BRK.

 

The return of SBUX during that period was only about 3600% compared to about 4800% on this one.

Ok,  toro company would be really close here too. I’m going off my iPhone stock list without cheating. It’s fun.

Sure. Toro (TTC) is actually far ahead with about 6300% during that period (starting Nov 99) compared to 968% for BRK.

 

Good to see many examples of companies leaving BRK far behind because some people are brainwashed over Berkshire.

and going back to 1984. BRK has outperformed TTC by 2.5x. So what is the reason for this random comparison from an arbitrary date?

Not arbitrary, that date is the maximum starting point from when that stock in the original question has data from.

But what's the value of the comparison?  Looking backwards for charts that beat Berkshire is pretty easy.  Are you saying these stocks will do well going forward?  If so why?  As Buffett says, the rearview mirror is always clearer than the windscreen.

Comparison value is very logical like we would do with an index. Nothing to do with looking backward or forward.

 

I am actually boosting Buffett's Berkshire as a benchmark. However, I understand if it appears offensive.

This may be sensitive issue and hurt public sentiments as the masses are programmed with {Buffett == Oracle}.

What is an Oracle anyway? A more technologically advanced translation of the word Prophet?

 

You may still participate in the chart game by ignoring the red line at bottom and just focus on the blue line above.

Im still confused.  What are we trying to accomplish with random comparisons looking backward?

My interpretation of this whole thread is that it's about entertainment.

 

So, I imagine almost every comment, including this one, is intended to entertain the writer or the potential audience.

The red line at the bottom is Berkshire!

 

What NYSE stock is the blue line?

Hint: there is one important key feature of this company that is common with Berkshire.

The hint made me think of RLI (replacement lens insurance for contact lenses originally !!) but despite having a similar return profile since 1999 it isn't the chart you posted.  Plus RLI has a data series going back to 1972.

 

Oh well keep guessing

Next Hint: Prem Watsa of Fairfax mentioned it somewhere in the last few years.

 

 

Well now you are just handing out the answer.  This is one remnant of the company Prem and Buffett reference periodically
