巴菲特(Warren Buffett)旗下投资公司波克夏海瑟威(Berkshire Hathaway)上周六发布 2024 年第二季财报显示,该公司 Q2 大砍近 50% 苹果持股,现金部位飙升 2, 769 亿美元,刷新历史新高。

当时有分析师认为,巴菲特大举出售苹果持股,很可能是对股市和经济前景感到不乐观,因此选择满手现金。而如今随著这几天美股、亚洲股市接连的崩盘,社群又再度佩服巴菲特成功逃顶的敏锐度。

有趣的是,波克夏手上的现金,在今晨以太坊一度跌破 2, 100 美元之际,更成功超越以太坊的市值。而且这还只是该公司目前可以动用的现金而已,再度感叹其雄厚的资本实力。

盘点巴菲特近 20 多年来的逃顶战绩

巴菲特常被人称为是逃顶大师,下文就来盘点一下,股神巴菲特在过去 20 年辉煌的逃顶历史。

1999 年科技泡沫:坚持不碰不懂的产业

1999 年,网际网路泡沫达到巅峰,但巴菲特坚守「不赚自己能力范围以外的钱」原则,拒绝投资不熟悉的科技股,尽管受到质疑,他坚持不参与「其他人比我有优势的游戏」,还认为美股市值当时已大幅超过经济成长,道琼工业指数未来 17 年的表现不会比 1964 ~ 1981 年好多少,除非市场下跌。

股市在 1999 年一度不断打脸股神,当标普 500 指数上涨 21% ,那斯达克指数大涨 66% 时,波克夏海瑟威市值下跌近 20% ,创下自 1990 年以来第 2 差表现,巴菲特在该年底还登上《巴伦周刊》封面,一篇标题为《华伦,怎么回事?》的文章写道「 30 多年无敌的投资成功后,巴菲特可能失去他的魔力」。

不过到了 2000 年 3 月,网际网路泡沫终于开始破裂,直至 2001 年全面消退,而巴菲特成功逃顶。

波克夏海瑟威与那斯达克指数在网际网路泡沫期间走势对比。

2008 年金融危机:别人恐惧我贪婪

2008 年爆发全球金融危机,道琼工业指数从顶点到最低点跌了 52% ,无论科技股还是传产股皆全盘大跌,但在市场一片悲观之际,巴菲特在 2008 年 10 月余《纽约时报》发表《Buy American. I AM.》,写出经典名言「别人贪婪我恐惧,别人恐惧我贪婪」。

2008 年 9 ~ 10 月,巴菲特开始抄底,大量买入星座能源、日本汽车厂商 Tungaloy、高盛、比亚迪、通用电器等公司股份,波克夏海瑟威持股的富国银行又以 151 亿美元收购美联银行。

巴菲特抄底之后也套牢了一阵子,高盛股价从 125 美元以上跌至 53 美元,通用电器从 22.15 美元到 14.03 美元,但巴菲特买入的都是每年 10% 固定收益的优先股,除非公司倒闭,否则每年都可坐收获得丰厚利润。

《Buy American. I AM.》发表 5 个月后,美股开始触底反弹,迎来长达 10 年的牛市,巴菲特和波克夏海瑟威再次资产飞跃,仅金融危机期间的投资,就为他赚取超过 100 亿美元的回报。

2020 年疫情:现金为王伺机而动

2020 年新冠肺炎疫情爆发,全球股市暴跌,波克夏海瑟威持有大量现金,伺机而动,在疫情过后,开始大举投资日本股市, 2020 年以来,他向五大商社投资了 1.6 兆日元,截至去年底,已增值至 2.9 兆日元,获利达 80 亿美元。

小结

不过要补充的是,巴菲特这些举措也并非每次都完美预测市场顶部,有时也会错过一些投资机会,但巴菲特逃顶的历史为投资者提供了宝贵的经验。尽管巴菲特至今没有明确表示该逃顶了,但高额的现金储备也显示出他在市场不确定性下的谨慎态度。

a16z on Hiring: How to Choose Between Crypto-Native and Traditional Talent?

Hiring in Crypto: Balancing Crypto-Native and Traditional Talent As the crypto industry grows, founders face the dilemma of whether to prioritize hiring professionals with blockchain experience or those with traditional tech backgrounds who can learn. The key is recognizing that crypto companies are still tech companies at their core and should apply proven hiring best practices. Crypto-native talent offers immediate productivity and is essential for roles involving high-stakes, specialized work like smart contract development, where errors can be catastrophic. However, traditional professionals from large-scale software companies bring valuable experience in scaling products, operational flexibility, and expertise in areas like fintech, UX, and security, which are crucial as crypto products target mainstream adoption. Recruiting requires tailored approaches. Some candidates may be hesitant due to crypto's volatility or complexity, while others are excited by its innovative potential. Assess candidates' motivations, curiosity, and alignment with the company's vision early. Emphasize the opportunity to shape technology's future and address financial incentives, such as token-based compensation, which can offer liquidity compared to traditional equity. Onboarding is critical. Identify knowledge gaps during hiring and design education programs, mentorship, knowledge-sharing sessions, and resources like blogs or courses to accelerate learning. Pairing new hires with experienced crypto professionals helps bridge gaps and fosters collaboration. Ultimately, successful teams blend both crypto-native and traditional talent, leveraging their strengths to drive innovation and growth.

DeFi Hacked Again for $292 Million, Is Even Aave No Longer Safe?

On April 19, a major DeFi security breach occurred, resulting in the loss of approximately $292 million. The attack targeted Kelp DAO’s rsETH bridge contract built on LayerZero, with 116,500 rsETH stolen. The attacker initiated the exploit using funds from Tornado Cash and manipulated the LayerZero EndpointV2 contract to transfer the assets. Kelp DAO confirmed the incident and temporarily paused rsETH contracts across multiple networks while collaborating with security experts for investigation. Initial analysis suggests the root cause was a compromised private key on the source chain, with the contract secured by only a 1/1 validator set, making it vulnerable to a single malicious transaction. The attacker used the stolen rsETH as collateral on lending platforms—including Aave, Compound, and Euler—to borrow more liquid assets like WETH, accumulating over $236 million in debt. Aave alone accounted for $196 million of this amount. In response, Aave froze its rsETH markets and stated it would explore covering potential bad debt through its Umbrella safety module, which holds around $50 million in WETH. This incident follows another large exploit earlier in April, where Drift Protocol on Solana lost $280 million. The repeated high-value attacks raise concerns about DeFi security, even affecting major protocols like Aave. Users are advised to exercise caution, diversify holdings, and limit exposure to on-chain protocols until more robust security measures are established.
