This guy can’t beat the S&P. He’s the GOAT of investing.
Jim Cramer who is a prophet to some, and a fraud to others, he can’t beat the S&P.
Investing in the S&P is investing in America. Is it 100% of my portfolio? No. It’s 100% of my 401k though. Outside of that I have had some incredible luck since the market crash of 2008. You guys can compare percentages and strategies all day, bottom line is S&P with DRIP (dividend reinvestment program) is tough to beat over time.
Interesting side note is that the S&P is basically turning into a tech fund now. Will be interesting to see what happens over time... but I wouldn’t bet against American companies.
Over the past decade Buffett has lagged the S&P 500 but over his career he's handily outperformed the S&P 500 with 17%+ compounded annual returns. The more assets you have under management the harder it becomes to outperform the SPY
