(New York)
The biggest and most famous investor of them all just took a big position in US financials. In particular, Warren Buffett just made a large investment in JP Morgan to the tune of $4 bn. Buffett already holds a $23 bn position in Wells Fargo. Berkshire Hathaway has a history of making successful investments in banks, including in Bank of America. Buffett also boosted its holdings in BAC, Goldman Sachs, and US Bancorp.
FINSUM: Rising rates are good for banks. Recessions are not. The risk and reward is clear.
