Warren Buffett Privately Traded Stocks Berkshire Hathaway Was Buying and Selling

Maybe he had Wells in his personal portfolio for awhile, realized it, and then sold. If you look at the chart, it wasn't a particularly good time to sell.

The trades that Congress continually make are much more suspect. I don't understand why there's not more focus on those trades where there is blatant corruption.

How's that relevant to him lying about it and being a hypocrite?

That it wasn't a lie if he believed his statement to be true. He would consequently also not be a hypocrite for it.

He literally went in front of CNBC and told the interviewer he owned JP Morgan because Berkshire owned Wells Fargo. And yet, he owned Fargo.

We don't even know if there were more instances, because only sales are reported, but not buys.

Hypocrisy I say!! Hypocrisy!

People love spending their lives looking for it. Ever watch Fox News for 10 minutes. It’s a business model.
