Seems like BRK is not as successfull as they used to be. They were in 80 90s 00s and 10s. But they are barely beating SP500 recenly. Not even sure about SP100. Something tells me it's because Buffet is so old and is hesitant to get into AI and tech which is where the money is today. His style worked decade or decades ago. World is changing though.

A semiconductor ETF prob has better returns than buffet

Buffet has done a solid job for an all around portfolio but his bet on Apple early on really drove a lot of his returns.

Simons was just different, he would know when to use leverage and just changed the way people thought about investing. Completely different philosophy than Buffet.

Simons doesn’t have the longevity that Warren has had but he doesn’t get the attention he’s deserved in my opinion. 66% gross annual returns for 30 years is unbelievable.
