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) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haryana Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 (edited) 20 hours ago, Jaygo said: 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.

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pauly Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 I don't get it. Do you think that people here believe that Berkshire has been the best performing stock over the last 25 years? No one thinks that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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.

gfp Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
