Warren Buffett Just Bought These Stocks
Warren Buffett's ability to pick winning stocks has made his company, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B), one of the most closely watched investment firms on the planet. While Buffett is usually mum when it comes to discussing his latest buys, Berkshire Hathaway reveals his latest transactions in a 13-F filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission every quarter. The company's latest filing reveals that Berkshire Hathaway's established a new position in Barrick Gold (NYSE: GOLD) and increased its exposure to Liberty SiriusXM Group (NASDAQ: LSXMK), Store Capital (NYSE: STOR), Suncor Energy (NYSE: SU), and Kroger (NYSE: KR).
At first glance, Barrick Gold's appearance in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio is the most surprising of these buys. However, as fellow Fool Dan Caplinger points out, Buffett's past criticism has focused on gold itself, not the companies digging it out of the ground. And when it comes to mining gold, Barrick Gold's been very successful.
