Should you sell your Apple because Buffet has been selling 50% of his Apple ($AAPL) shares?

Well, think twice. Buffett sold his entire Mcdonalds ($MCD) stock in 1998. Since then, MCD has increased +1,413%, outperforming Berkshire Hathaways returns. Buffett sold his entire Costco #($COST) stake in June 2020. Since then, COST has gained +190%, outperforming Berkshire as well. Buffett also sold all his stakes in airline stocks like Delta Airlines ($DAL) in March 2020. Since then, DAL is up +82% as well Lesson? Don't copy paste what other investors are doing, no matter how great they are. Source: Adam Khoo on X
