伯克希爾·哈撒韋投資方向出現哪些變化?

“股神”巴菲特在迎來91歲大壽之際,其管理的伯克希爾·哈撒韋(BRK.A.US, BRK.B.US) 的投資風格也在悄悄發生變化。據報道,伯克希爾正逐步偏離舊的經濟核心,以適應日益受技術驅動的經濟,並將科技股作爲其投資組合中最主要的持倉板塊。此外,近年來伯克希爾還專注於向股東返還資本,得益於大規模股票回購,伯克希爾股價也持續創下歷史新高。

據報道,伯克希爾對科技股的敞口已增長到其股票投資組合的45%,這要歸功於該公司對蘋果(AAPL.US)的大量持股,自五年前首次投資以來,該公司對蘋果的持股已膨脹至超過1200億美元,成爲迄今爲止巴菲特持倉市值最高的一隻股票。

除了科技股,巴菲特還在近年罕見地涉足了首次公開發行(IPO)和IPO前投資。據瞭解,巴菲特曾公開表示購買“被炒作的IPO股票”不是一個可靠的投資基礎。但在最近兩年大火的IPO熱潮之前,巴菲特曾在Snowflake(SNOW.US)IPO階段,與軟件巨頭Salesforce (CRM.US)雙雙押注,二者各自持股2.5億美元。

不僅如此,伯克希爾還透露在後期交易中再購買超404萬股,斥資或達3.2億美元以上。此次交易使伯克希爾的持股價值從大約7.3億美元暴增至15.5億美元,一天就使股神淨賺8.2億多美元。除此之外,巴菲特還涉及其他IPO投資。

參與新股發售對於巴菲特來說是很罕見的投資行爲,因爲這是自巴菲特參與福特汽車的IPO以來,第一次投資一家新上市的美國公司。人們普遍猜測是巴菲特的助手Todd Combs和Ted Weschler策劃了對Snowflake的豪賭。

CFRA Research的伯克希爾分析師Cathy Seifert則評價稱:“如今(伯克希爾)的股票投資組合比10年或15年前更有活力…他們肯定會試一試,嘗試一些新的經濟股。除非你在這方面有一定敞口,否則很難產生阿爾法值,尤其是考慮到他們過去往往傾向於以大型價值股爲導向。”

此外,伯克希爾一直專注於向股東返還資本。在去年,伯克希爾的回購金額已經創下紀錄,達到247億美元。而今年伯克希爾也沒有停下回購的步伐,今年第二季度,伯克希爾回購了60億美元的股票,推動上半年的回購規模達到126億美元。

巴菲特對此表示,如果不想讓現金餘額繼續增長,唯一的選擇是繼續回購股票。在市場出現某種回調之前,這可能是短期內處理過剩現金的最佳選擇。

最後,不少巴菲特的鐵桿觀察人士十分關注伯克希爾什麼時候才能完成一筆巨型收購?考慮到巴菲特嚴謹的價值取向,答案可能會讓很多人失望。

CFRA Research的伯克希爾分析師Cathy Seifert評論道,“事實上,伯克希爾哈撒韋還沒有達成一筆重磅交易,我不認爲投資者們會逼他這麼做…我認爲他們仍然相信他的判斷和敏銳,尤其是考慮到目前的估值水平。”
