Three Stocks Warren Buffett Is Selling as a Recession Nears
Three Stocks Warren Buffett Is Selling as a Recession Nears
Friday's jobs report marked the second month in a row with substantially fewer jobs created than analysts expected—renewing fears that a recession is imminent, if not already underway.
上周五的就业报告显示,连续两个月新增就业岗位数量大大低于分析师预期,重新引发了即将到来的衰退甚至已经开始的担忧。
With all three major market indices sliding on the news, the selloff may just be getting started.
随着三大主要股市指数在新闻报道中滑坡,抛售行动可能刚刚开始。
And none other than Warren Buffett—the legendary "Oracle of Omaha" is leading the charge...
而火爆股神沃伦·巴菲特则带头进攻...
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has dumped millions of shares of various stocks over the last few months—and is now sitting on a record cash position of $276 billion. The massive selling is reminiscent of Berkshire's stock sales ahead of 2022—the worst year for markets since the 2008 financial crisis.
沃伦·巴菲特的伯克希尔·哈撒韦过去几个月抛售了数百万股各种股票,现在持有创纪录的2760亿美元现金。这一大规模出售令人想起伯克希尔在2022年金融危机之前的股票销售,当年是自2008年金融危机以来市场表现最差的一年。
Here are the top 3 stocks Warren Buffett is selling now.
以下是沃伦·巴菲特正在卖出的前3只股票。
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)
苹果公司(纳斯达克:AAPL)
Berkshire Hathaway has cut its position in Apple by nearly 50% in recent months, reducing its position from over $135 billion to just over $84 billion today.
伯克希尔·哈撒韦在最近几个月将其在苹果的仓位减少了近50%,将其仓位从超过1350亿美元减少到如今的840亿美元左右。
When asked about the move at the most recent conference for Berkshire Hathaway shareholders in May, Buffett said the move was for tax reasons.
在5月份为伯克希尔·哈撒韦股东召开的最新股东大会上,当被问及此举时,巴菲特表示这是出于税务原因的举动。
But there's no denying that Apple's earnings and revenue growth have slowed in recent months.
但不可否认的是,近几个月苹果的营业收入增长已经放缓。
Last quarter, the tech giant reported year-over-year quarterly revenue growth of just 4.9%. Earnings growth came in at 7.9%
上个季度,这家科技巨头报告的同比季度营业收入增长仅为4.9%。盈利增长率为7.9%。
Bank of America (NYSE:BAC)
美国银行(NYSE:BAC)
Last quarter, Berkshire Hathaway reduced its position on Bank of America by $37 billion.
上个季度,伯克希尔·哈撒韦(Berkshire Hathaway)减持美国银行370亿美元。
The move comes as Bank of America reports negative quarterly earnings growth of 6.8%. Revenues also shrank last quarter, retreating by 0.8%.
此举发生在美国银行报告季度负增长6.8%的财报之际。上个季度的营业收入也出现了下降,下滑了0.8%。
Analysts are forecasting a 10% dip in growth for BAC over the next quarter. Banks are typically hard-hit by recession, as rising defaults cut into their earnings. In any case, it seems that mainstream analysts see the same potential for trouble for BAC in the months ahead that Warren Buffett does.
分析师预测BAC在下个季度的增长将下滑10%。银行通常在衰退中受到重创,因为不良贷款削弱了它们的盈利能力。无论如何,似乎主流分析师和沃伦·巴菲特一样看到了BAC未来几个月可能面临的麻烦。
Chevron Corp. (NYSE:CVX)
雪佛龙公司(NYSE:CVX)
Buffett has been very bullish on oil and gas stocks in the post-Covid years, so it's interesting that he's unloaded 30.6 million shares of the energy giant last quarter.
在后COVID年,巴菲特对石油和天然气股票非常看好,因此有趣的是他在上个季度抛售了3060万股这家能源巨头的股票。
At one time, Chevron was the fifth-largest holding in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio. But it's possible that Buffett sees a prolonged period of lower energy prices ahead, since recessions and other economic drawdowns always reduce energy demand, and therefore profits for oil and gas companies.
一度,雪佛龙是伯克希尔·哈撒韦投资组合中的第五大资产。但巴菲特可能认为新能源车价格将长期下跌,因为衰退和其他经济衰退总是会减少能源需求,从而导致石油和天然气公司的利润减少。
Nationally, gas prices are already over 50 cents cheaper per gallon than they were a year ago... and they're still falling, thanks to a few factors including an unusually mild hurricane season and the rise of electric vehicles.
在全国范围内,汽油价格比一年前便宜了50多美分……而且还在下降,这要归功于几个因素,包括一个异常温和的飓风季节和新能源车的崛起。
Chevron, not coincidentally, is joining a host of energy companies coming under pressure. It reported a decline in quarterly earnings of 26.2%, and grew revenues by just 4.8% last quarter on a year-over-year basis.
不巧的是,雪佛龙正面临诸多能源公司的压力。上季度,其季度利润下降了26.2%,营业收入与去年同期相比仅增长了4.8%。
