Concentrated portfolio approach view of legendary investors portfolios
The best investors in the world just updated their holdings. Main takeaway. These great investors all manage very concentrated portfolios. They don't practice the investment theory of diversification. Hence they consistently outperform year after year. Let's dive into the Portfolio of Warren Buffet, Bill Ackman, and a few more.
Warren Buffett: 80% of the WB portfolio is held in 6 companies.
Bill Ackman: 80% of Bill Ackman's portfolio is held in 5 companies
Howard Marks: 50% of HM's portfolio is in 3 companies
Li Lu: Li Lu owns 5 companies. That says it all!!!
I know many of you have never heard of most of these investors. However, at SWCM we closely monitor the holdings of these legendary investors. We also practice the concentrated portfolio approach, as this is the best way to get outsized returns over the long term.
If you own an old 401k or retirement account for the most part you will own over 500 companies and are paying for underperformance. It's time to roll it over to an IRA and invest wisely.
