WARREN BUFFETT : THE ORACLE OF OMAHA - Buffett Bought 25% Of Global Silver & The secret trade he admitted he botched
from Sleepy Stock Market · host Sleepy Stock Market
On 1997, Warren Buffett secretly purchased 129.7 million ounces of silver — roughly 25% of global annual production — shaking Comex markets worldwide. The Oracle of Omaha built a $700 billion empire starting with a $38.25 stock purchase at age 11 in 1942, using just three metrics: ROE above 20%, low debt, and consistent earnings. From rescuing American Express after a salad oil scandal in 1964 to his $25 billion Coca-Cola stake, every move followed the same patient playbook. He later admitted the silver trade in a single sentence to shareholders: 'I sold too soon.'🎧 Part of the Sleepy Stock Market series — financial history told as documentary audio.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━SLEEPY STOCK MARKETFall asleep to the greatest stories in financial history.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━#WarrenBuffett #BerkshireHathaway #ValueInvesting #Investing #StockMarket #OracleOfOmaha #Finance #WealthBuilding #InvestingTips #StockMarketHistory
