Berkshire Hathaway was also an early investor in the PetroChina Company Limited back in 2002-2003, which has turned $500 million into $3.5 billion within 5 years.

The next generation of Apple iPhones and 5G enabled devices is likely to keep the AAPL stock price buoyant in the coming months.<\/p><p>Like AAPL, Berkshire Hathaway has a majority of institutional ownership, so it is hard to short either company as these investors are in it for the long run. Institutional ownership of AAPL is 58.90% and for Berkshire Hathaway it is around 67.50%. With that level of commitment to a stock, the idea is to grab onto those institutional coat tails and go along for the ride. Which means adopting a similar strategy to Mr. Buffet and buying when the stocks appear to be at value.<\/p><p>The downturn in Chinese economics could be signalling the start of the next wave of corrections so it is worth looking for stocks that could fare well in a downturn. Obviously, Berkshire Hathaway is not impervious to the likes of a pandemic, but they are worth putting in the bottom draw and forgetting about should you get in at a place of value.<\/p><p>Berkshire Hathaway earnings per share were parabolic this last 12 months and analysts\u2019 expectations are for the EPS to draw down by 33% over the next few years. With earnings and revenues forecasts slowing.
