Top Warren Buffett Stocks To Invest In 2019


In this Market Foolery podcast, host Chris Hill is joined by senior analyst Jason Moser to discuss a trio of news items. First, they reflect on the soon-to-end tenure of Pepsico (NASDAQ:PEP) CEO Indra Nooyi, who has done a strong job leading the company through a rough period in the packaged-food space, in general, and for soda, in particular.

Next, they give a quick rundown of Berkshire Hathaway’s (NYSE:BRK-A) (NYSE:BRK-B) status as of its latest quarterly report, which came out Friday. (No shock, Warren Buffett’s company is firing on all cylinders.) And finally, they consider the somewhat baffling news that Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) is talking to banks about a payments feature that would have your bank data automatically accessed by its Messenger app. (Because we all have total trust that the social-media company is taking excellent care when it comes to data security. Right? … Right?)


A full transcript follows the video.
