5 Best BANK STOCKS to Buy [Warren Buffett Portfolio]

Bank stocks beat the market but don’t just take my word for it. It’s why Warren Buffett has more than 43% of his own portfolio in bank stocks and the financials sector. But how do you find the best stocks in the sector?

Let’s start by looking at the financial sector stocks to see why they do so well and why this year might be a great year to invest. Besides producing huge dividend yields, these stocks are the cheapest in the market and still great value stocks.

Then we’ll dig into the Warren Buffett portfolio of 14 bank stocks to find the five best for your portfolio. I looked at each stock in the Berkshire Hathaway holdings to find the ones with the highest dividend and potential return.

It’s all part of our 11-video series seeking out the best stocks to buy in each sector of the economy. Build a rockstar portfolio with the best of breed players in each sector for diversification and double-digit returns. Check out the previous videos in the series!

I’m sorting the list of Buffett’s best bank stocks by size of investment, so we’re counting down to his biggest bet in banking. I’ll also show you some financial sector ETFs you can use to get broad exposure to the sector and those great dividend yields.

Buffet has definitely gone deep into bank stocks. He will make out like a bandit if he's right :) Some interesting dividend plays...

*I had BAC and JPM since the crash but sold them for a gain a year ago. Bank stocks are holding their own.*

Fractional reserve really helped out with printing their own money for money flow.

Have you heard of $PBCT very juicy dividend and at times it goes on sale, I was able to pick some up few months ago in the 14s range.

[frankmcconnel]

Well, can't ignore the fractional reserve money printing machine. Most of my money are in the BOA along. They are treating me well.

I could kick myself for not buying Oracle at 8.00 back in 2001 or so. Its 30.00 today! Oracle isn't going out of business anytime soon.

Using M1 finance Would you recommend buying stock in Berkshire hathway stock or warren buffent pie or both?

I was curious to know if you had a opinion on stocks GOOD, GAIN, GLAD and LAND? Are those good investments? They seem to have their foothold in many and their dividends seem high. I think you had mention 1 of the 4 at one point. How do you feel about the rest of them? Are they all run by the same controlling group?

[GregK]

Thanks for sharing your picks. Any non-Buffett financials you might've added to the mix?

[Alisher]

The only thing I am worried about is all of these online banks I think they are gaining a lot of traction and can pose a serious threat?

[Cocolemon-pkon]

I'm very brand new to the investing world and trying to understand all the stock talk. Rn I have a couple of shares in United bancorp and I just want to know if that's good and I should keep it and invest more or if there are any red flags I'm to new to see. Please let me know. Thank you so much for the helpful videos!

Hi Joseph, any views on the Chinese state banks? Their PE ratios seem really low, any serious red flags we should be wary of? Also any views on SBRCY? Really low PE with high growth and yield.
