Best Warren Buffett Stocks To Own Right Now

Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.

Since the beginning of 2016, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A) (NYSE:BRK-B) has seen the value of the seven bank stocks in its investment portfolio increase by $5.6 billion, or 10.8%.

That’s a lot of money, butwhen you compare it to how blue-chip bank stocks performed more generally, something interesting sticks out. While Berkshire’s portfolio of bank stocks outperformed the S&P 500 this year, it underperformed the main index that tracks bank stocks.

The drag on Buffett’s bank stocks

You can see this by looking at the KBW Bank Index, which tracks two dozen of the nation’s leading bank stocks. It’s up 26.4% this year. That’s more than twice the gain Berkshire Hathaway has seen on its bank holdings.

What’s the deal? The answer is that not all of the bank stocks selected by Warren Buffett for Berkshire Hathaway’s portfolio performed equally well this year. One in particular dragged down its returns: Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC).

It feels like a lost his mind morning, with the Trump-Bannon brouhaha, the crypto craze and the seemingly unsinkable Dow all getting attention.

There is a bit of head-scratching over the blue-chip gauges jump to start the new year, given it looked due for a rest after last years gain of 25%.

These markets are technically completely extended, uncorrected and at high risk of an accident, warns the bearish Sven Henrich at his Northman Trader blog.

Top 5 Undervalued Stocks To Watch For 2019

Teck Resources (NYSE:TECK) performed exceptionally well in 2016, rising from the low single digits to the mid-$20s. I don’t think the stock will repeat that strong performance in 2017. However, I do think the stock will outperform the S&P 500 with strong double-digit gains. Teck Resources’ recent 20% pullback has the stock at an oversold level. The stock remains undervalued as compared to its peers and the broader market. The company has multiple catalysts that will drive the stock’s outperformance from this undervalued level.

Click to enlarge

Teck Resources is poised to benefit from an improving economy and from President-elect, Donald Trump’s plan to spend $1 trillion on U.S. infrastructure over a 10-year period. New construction starts are expected to increase 5% in 2017. That forecast was projected before the U.S. Presidential election. So, if Trump gets his infrastructure plan passed, we could see a higher percentage increase in construction spending. Teck Resources will benefit from its mining of copper, metallurgical coal and other minerals.

Top 5 Undervalued Stocks To Watch For 2019: Kinder Morgan, Inc.(KMI)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By WWW.KIPLINGER.COM]

    Kinder Morgan Inc. (KMI) has 84,000 miles of pipeline under its midstream umbrella.

    Thats a big number.

    Kinder Morgan also boasts 180 terminals, fractionation and processing facilities, coal depots, tankers and other pieces of infrastructure. Wrap it all together, and you literally have the largest midstream firm in North America.

  • [By Paul Ausick]

    Kinder Morgan Inc. (NYSE: KMI) dropped about 2.5% Wednesday to post a new 52-week low of $17.00 after closing at $17.43 on Tuesday. The 52-week high is $23.01. Volume was around 14 million, about 40% above the daily average of about 10 million. The company’s Canadian subsidiary has filed a petition with the federal energy regulator asking for a process to resolve potential disagreements with local and tribal governments over the proposed expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline.

  • [By Paul Ausick]

    Kinder Morgan Inc. (NYSE: KMI) traded down about 2.2% Wednesday and posted a new 52-week low of $14.76 after closing Tuesday at $15.09. The stock’s 52-week high is $21.92. Volume was about equal to the daily average of around 17 million shares. The company had no specific news.

  • [By Chuck Saletta]

    Shares of pipeline giant Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMI) got shellacked back in late 2015 and early 2016 as it cut its dividend to shore up its balance sheet and avoid a debt-rating downgrade to junk status. The dividend cut enabled it to internally fund much of its growth plan instead of relying so much on capital markets. By the end of 2017, thanks to that prudent financial management, it expects to have its debt rating comfortably back in the investment-grade range.

  • [By Paul Ausick]

    Kinder Morgan Inc. (NYSE: KMI) and its Canadian subsidiary Kinder Morgan Canada Ltd. already deliver 300,000 barrels a day of oil from the oil sands of Alberta to the coast of British Columbia. In late 2016, the company received approval from the Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the federal government to proceed with a plan to expand the Trans Mountain pipeline to transport nearly 900,000 barrels a day to the town of Burnaby, B.C.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    While Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMI) is one of the largest energy-infrastructure companies in North America, most of its assets are in the United States. However, an outsized portion of the company’s near-term growth is in Canada due to one major project. Given the size of the project, the company is currently looking at a range of financing options, which could lead it to get creative with its Canadian business.
