Thereâs a good reason why he thinks... [Energy and Capital Header] Practical Investment Analysis for the New Energy Economy Beating Buffett Has Never Been This Easy Keith Kohl | Feb 13, 2024 Warren Buffett has a grudge with you. You read that right. The man with $130 billion in net worth doesnât just have a bone to pick with individual investors like us. Heâs also jealous that you and I can do something heâll never be able to do. Truth is, heâs been a little peeved for years. You see, the Oracle from Omaha â arguably the greatest investor in history â has a bit of a problem. Heâs too rich. The Single Most Important Geological Discovery of Our Generation A tiny mining firm is at the forefront of mining the world's largest lithium deposit... And itâs NOT overseas in some politically unstable nation... Every single ounce of this record-breaking deposit is right here in America. With an estimated value of $1.5 trillion, it's about to launch this $5 stock into the stratosphere... [See the full details here.]( I know, I know⦠that sounds like a good problem to have, right? However, one of his more famous remarks gives us a little insight into his grievance. Back in 1999, Buffett gave an interview in Business Week where he said (emphasis my own): âIf I was running $1 million today, or $10 million for that matter, Iâd be fully invested. Anyone who says that size does not hurt investment performance is selling. The highest rates of return Iâve ever achieved were in the 1950s. I killed the Dow. You ought to see the numbers. But I was investing peanuts then. Itâs a huge structural advantage not to have a lot of money. I think I could make 50% a year on $1 million. No, I know I could. I guarantee that.â Thereâs a good reason why he thinks like this. Unlike you or I, who trade with a trivial amount of money compared to Buffett, his hands are tied by regulatory issues. When youâre investing with billions of dollars, you canât simply target the kind of small cap stocks with the best growth potential. If he went after those small players, shares would move far too much because theyâre too illiquid. Imagine what would happen if you pumped several billion dollars into a company that was trading with a cap of just a few million⦠you see what I mean? Because of his limitations, Buffett will look at the other side of the fence in envy and see us trading with far higher returns. Donât believe me? Well, let me show you exactly how we beat Buffett recently⦠Tesla Is Dead... Elon Musk Is Ruined Thanks to a new discovery â known as âBlue Gasâ â electric car companies like Tesla are about to go down in flames. âBlue Gasâ is 100% emission-free, can propel vehicles hundreds of miles, and allows cars to fully charge in just minutes. And the tiny company behind it is primed to absolutely shatter any gains ever paid out by Tesla.

He was quite familiar with the company â the first company he ever bought was an oil stock that was eventually acquired by Occidental in 1983 â and it hit all the right spots. Occidental trades with a market cap of over $51 billion as I write this, and certainly falls into the large cap territory in which Buffett hunts. Last July, however, we [talked]( about how this was a mistake for normal investors like us. Simply put, there were better opportunities. In fact, I told you about two far better oil stocks with a much stronger upside than whales like Occidental â one of which was Diamondback Energy, a personal favorite among the members of our investment community. Now, had you followed Uncle Warrenâs path and mixed it up with a stock trading with nearly a million outstanding shares, your position would actually be slightly down right now. If youâve held onto Diamondback Energy, however, youâd be up more than 30% â and thatâs just the beginning. Not only has Diamondback experienced steady growth since last summer, but the company just announced a major $26 billion deal to buy Endeavor Energy. So much for staying small⦠If this deal goes through, Diamondback will be trading with a value akin to Occidental. Now think of the implications of this new acquisition. If completed, it would mean that just a small handful of oil companies would control most of the daily output in the Permian Basin. Right now, thereâs more than six million barrels of oil pumping out of Permian wells â making the oil region one of the largest on the planet. Finding those hidden gems in the Permian just got THAT much tougher. Thing is, theyâre still a few out there. You just need to know where to look.
