Buffett is cashing out and cashing up – Roger Montgomery asks if you should too

Billionaire investor Warren Buffett has recently made headlines with a huge selldown in Apple stock. As his cash pile grows, some are wondering whether it’s time to trim exposure to equities. Today, however, the Economist is asking (again) if Buffett has lost his touch.

Roger Montgomery, CIO and founder of Montgomery Investment Management, shares his thoughts on:

  • why Buffett can’t help accruing cash, and what he’s really been doing with it
  • four new stocks that Berkshire Hathaway is buying instead of Apple
  • the Australian companies that Warren would buy in a sell off, and
  • how to build wealth like the man himself
