Shares of software companies are trading higher in sympathy with overall market strength after Donald Trump was elected president of the United States.

Daily Journal Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/djco#NASDAQ">DJCO</a>) reported a consolidated net income of $51.4 million, translating to earnings of $37.32 per share for the nine months ended Jun 30, 2024. This marks a significant increase from the previous year&#39;s earnings of $20.29 per share, which totaled $27.9 million in net income.&nbsp;
The company&#39;s consolidated revenues also saw a rise to $50.1 million from $46.2 million, growth of $3.9 million, driven primarily by higher license and maintenance fees and public service fees in its Journal Technologies segment.
Daily Journal Corporation has demonstrated a commendable financial performance with substantial gains in net income and earnings per share, though challenged by rising operational costs. The effective management of marketable securities and strategic financial decisions have notably strengthened the company&#39;s financial position. While operational expenses pose a concern, the overall financial health of DJCO appears robust, supported by strategic asset management and revenue growth in key business areas.

The fiscal period witnessed robust performance with considerable improvements in both the Traditional Business and Journal Technologies units. However, both segments faced increased operational expenses, impacting their pretax incomes. Operational costs across both business segments rose primarily due to annual salary adjustments, hiring of additional staff and increased third-party hosting fees.
</div>
The Traditional Business&#39; pretax income declined to $1.6 million from $2.3 million, a decrease attributed mainly to heightened accrued personnel costs. Conversely, Journal Technologies saw a pretax income decrease to $0.8 million from $0.9 million, with increased operating expenses offsetting revenue gains.
The company&#39;s financial health was significantly buoyed by its management of marketable securities, which contributed appreciably to non-operating income. Marketable securities held were valued at $325 million, with net pretax unrealized gains of $185.9 million. DJCO recorded a net income increase facilitated by net gains on sales of marketable securities and unrealized gains, enhancing non-operating income, net of expenses, to $65.9 million from $34.4 million.
<h3>Other Developments</h3>
During this period, the company made significant strategic financial movements, including the sale of certain marketable securities for about $40.6 million. This not only realized net gains of $14.3 million but also facilitated a substantial paydown of the margin loan balance, decreasing it to $27.5 million from $75 million. Such actions reflect a strategic approach to leveraging assets to enhance financial stability and reduce liabilities.

In the wake of the potential departure of the current CEO,&nbsp;Warren Buffett,&nbsp;Berkshire Hathaway Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) might be at risk from activist investors, alerts a member of the company&#8217;s board.
What Happened: Chris Davis, one of the directors of Berkshire Hathaway, cautioned about the possibility of activist investor pressure on the company once Buffett exits.
Buffet, 93, is nearing the conclusion of his tenure as CEO of Berkshire following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35989969/charlie-munger-buffetts-trusted-partner-dies-at-99">demise</a> of his right-hand man, Charlie Munger.
Davis recognized Buffett and Munger&#8217;s dedication to their shareholders as &#8220;the greatest stewards almost in the history of capitalism," on the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9Cfd-dEsmA&amp;t=1429s">latest</a> Excess Returns podcast, as <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/warren-buffett-berkshire-hathaway-activist-investing-chris-davis-munger-culture-2024-1">reported</a> by Business Insider. He envisions an influx of shareholder proposals targeted at short-term value after their departure, potentially undermining the long-term value.

Buffett and Munger had designed Berkshire as a cluster of self-governing subsidiaries, allowing them to concentrate on capital allocation and hand over daily management to different CEOs. Critics, however, argue that this structure could be more efficient, thus leading to potential calls for changes.
Davis highlighted the board&#8217;s role in maintaining the company&#8217;s culture, asserting that directors should &#8220;stay focused on the long&nbsp;term.&#8221;

They built Berkshire into a massive holding company with a market capitalization exceeding $791 billion.

The anticipated activist investor pressure could potentially lead to a shift in Berkshire&#8217;s structure and operations. The company&#8217;s ability to navigate these challenges will significantly influence its future.

Activist Investor Threats Loom Over Berkshire Hathaway In Post-Buffett Era, Warns Board Member

In the aftermath of renowned investor Charlie Munger&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35989969/charlie-munger-buffetts-trusted-partner-dies-at-99">death</a> in November, the Daily Journal Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJCO#NASDAQ">DJCO</a>) has cautioned its shareholders about the likelihood of lower future returns, saying it's "impossible to ever replace" Warren Buffett's investment partner.
What Happened: Munger, who was known for being Buffett&#8216;s confidant and the vice-chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>), led the Daily Journal for around 45 years. He initiated the strategy of investing the publisher&#8217;s surplus cash into the stocks of other enterprises during the height of the financial crisis.
&#8220;Although the Board will work to ensure that the portfolio remains well-managed, it&#8217;s impossible to ever replace Mr. Munger," the journal said.
The Daily Journal spelled out its warning in a <a href="https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/783412/000143774923035452/djco20230930_10k.htm">filing</a> with the Securities and Exchange Commission, initially <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/charlie-munger-stock-portfolio-daily-journal-death-warning-buffett-berkshire-2023-12">reported</a> by Business Insider.
"Given the loss of Mr. Munger, the Company does not expect the future financial performance of its marketable securities portfolio to rival its past performance," it added.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36381266/openais-sam-altman-is-feeling-good-about-this-prediction-he-made-27-months-ago">OpenAI's Sam Altman Is ‘Feeling Good' About This Prediction He Made 27 Months Ago</a>
Munger kickstarted his investment strategy with a notable risk – he plowed in $20.4 million in stocks while the journal reported $40 million in total revenues and $12 million in operating income that year.
However, the gamble quickly turned profitable, yielding $34 million in unrealized gains by September that year as stocks surged.
During his nearly 13-year term, Munger, a critic of excessive diversification, limited the Daily Journal&#8217;s stock portfolio to eight or fewer companies.
By investing in firms like Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), Wells Fargo &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>), and Tesla competitor BYD. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDFF#OTC">BYDFF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>), the publisher&#8217;s stockholdings rose to $303 million as of Sept. 30 this year, which includes $138 million in unrealized gains.
To put it in perspective, Daily Journal reported approximately $68 million in revenue and $7 million in operating income last fiscal year.
Why It Matters: With the loss of Munger, one of history&#8217;s most successful investors, Daily Journal is adjusting its shareholders&#8217; future expectations. However, the publisher&#8217;s remarks emphasize the substantial influence Munger had on a business that&#8217;s notably less renowned than Berkshire.
Munger&#8217;s death was mourned by many, including Buffett, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35991781/warren-buffett-praises-charlie-mungers-inspiration-wisdom-participation-at-berkshire-hathaway-after">who praised Munger&#8217;s</a> &#8220;inspiration, wisdom, and participation&#8221; at Berkshire Hathaway.
The veteran investor, who had no plans of retirement, was introduced to Buffett in 1959 and the duo built Berkshire Hathaway into a holding company giant with over $784 billion in market capitalization.

Charlie Munger Built A $300M Stock Portfolio For Daily Journal, But Small Publisher Worries It May Not Perform Well Now: 'It's Impossible To Ever Replace'

During fiscal 2023, Daily Journal Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJCO#NASDAQ">DJCO</a>) had consolidated revenues of&nbsp;$67,709,000&nbsp;as compared to&nbsp;$54,009,000&nbsp;in the prior year.
&nbsp;There was consolidated net income of&nbsp;$21,452,000&nbsp;($15.58&nbsp;per share) for fiscal 2023, as compared to a consolidated net loss of&nbsp;$75,624,000&nbsp;(-$54.81&nbsp;per share) in the prior fiscal year

Daily Journal Corporation Reports FY23 Revenue $67.71M Up From $54.01M YoY; Net Income $21.45M Up From Net Loss $75.62M YoY

&#8220;The whole secret of investment is to find places where it is safe and wise not to diversify,&#8221; were the words of Charlie Munger, who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35989969/charlie-munger-buffetts-trusted-partner-dies-at-99">died on Tuesday</a> at the age of 99. This principle stood as one of the central tenets of his approach to investing.
Working on the belief that good investment ideas are few and far between — &#8220;Life is not just bathing you with unlimited opportunities&#8221; — Munger held very few stocks in his personal investment portfolio.
But those he did hold, he was rigidly committed to. At his death, Munger owned stock positions in just three companies:
Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>): Munger was vice-chairman and helped chairman Warren Buffett turn the company from a textiles manufacturer into a large insurance and investment conglomerate.
Buffett began buying shares in Berkshire Hathaway in 1962, believing it to be undervalued, and by 1967 he had majority control and branched into the insurance business.
&#8220;If you&#8217;re Warren, you want to be the house, not the punter,&#8221; Munger said.
At his death, Munger owned a little over 4,000 shares in Berkshire Hathaway, worth more than $2 billion.

Costco (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>): Munger was a director since 1997, and Costco was one of his favorite investments.
When Berkshire Hathaway exited its stake in Costco in 2020, Munger held on to his personal stake of around 187,000 shares, worth around $95 million.
Munger said of the company: &#8220;I wish everything else in America was working as well as Costco does.&#8221;
Daily Journal Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJCO#NASDAQ">DJCO</a>): He was chairman of the publishing and technology company since 1977.
Daily Journal was also another investment vehicle for Munger, and it owns shares in Alibaba (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) — worth $37.5bn, as well as Bank of America (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BOC#NYSE">BOC</a>) — worth nearly $89 million, Wells Fargo (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) — $62 million, and US Bancorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USB#NYSE">USB</a>) — $7.7 billion.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Value Investing</h2>
At the heart of all of Munger&#8217;s investment ideas, whether for his own portfolio or for that of Berkshire Hathaway, was value investing. Buying stocks that show long-term growth and pay dividends. He claimed the big money was not in buying and selling but in buying and waiting.
And value investing is not just about buying cheap. Munger said: &#8220;Forget what you know about buying fair businesses at wonderful prices. Instead, buy wonderful businesses at fair prices.&#8221;
Thus, buying quality and being patient were the principal facets of Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s success.
And upon finding stocks that matched the above investment criteria, Munger said investors must seize the moment. Quoting his grandfather — perhaps Munger&#8217;s best-known piece of investment advice was: &#8220;When you get a lollapalooza, for God&#8217;s sake, don&#8217;t hang by like a timid little rabbit.&#8221;

Charlie Munger's 'Buy And Hold' Thesis May Seem Tame, But It Worked For Berkshire Hathaway

Charles Munger, the billionaire businessman and attorney best-known as Warren Buffett&rsquo;s right-hand man at Berkshire Hathaway, died on Tuesday at the age of 99.
With no thought of retirement, the finance sage had worked with Buffett since 1959, when the two were introduced at a dinner. Together, they ran Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/brk-a#NYSE">BRK-A</a>)(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/brk-b#NYSE">BRK-B</a>), with Buffett at the helm and Munger as vice chairman. Together they build Berkshire into a giant holding company with a market captilization of over $784&nbsp;billion.
Munger also served as chairman of the Daily Journal Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/djco#NASDAQ">DJCO</a>) and as a director at Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cost#NASDAQ">COST</a>).
Munger spent some time in real estate law, co-founding Munger, Tolles &amp; Olson in California before shifting permanently to investing. A short-lived partnership proceeded his chairmanship at Wesco Financial Corporation, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway.
While in the U.S. Army he learned a skill that served him well in business: card playing. It was something he was quoted as saying&nbsp;affected his approach to stock trading.
Among the other stock trading approaches Munger was known for was the &ldquo;Lollapalooza effect,&rdquo; the principle of inversion and steering Buffett away from what he called the &ldquo;cigar-butt&rdquo; version of value investing: when an investor buys a dying business worth $1 for $0.75 just &ldquo;to get the 0.25% of free puff&rdquo; that&rsquo;s left in the business, ultimately meaning don&rsquo;t buy a troubled business at a discount because the immediate gain will be eroded by low returns.
He recommended buying a good business: &ldquo;Forget what you know about buying fair businesses at wonderful prices; instead, buy wonderful businesses at fair prices.&rdquo;
Munger was outspoken about the need for maintaining ethical business standards, and credited them to his success.
Munger was vocal in his criticism of cryptocurrencies, referring to Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) as a &ldquo;noxious poison&rdquo; and the &ldquo;go-to payment method for criminals.&rdquo;
Charles Thomas Munger was born Jan. 1, 1924, in Omaha, Nebraska. He was the son of Alfred C. Munger, an attorney, and Florence Russell Munger. He had two sisters, Mary Munger and Coral Munger.
Munger worked bagging groceries at Buffett &amp; Son, a grocery store owned by Buffett&rsquo;s grandfather.
He is among the billionaire college dropouts, having cut short his stint at the University of Michigan, where he studied mathematics, to enter the U.S. Army Air Corps. He was trained as an meterologist and became a second lieutenant.
Munger continued studies in meterology at Caltech in Pasadena, California, making the town his permanent home.
Munger applied to Harvard Law School, his father&rsquo;s alma mater, but was rejected because he had not obtained an undergraduate degree. After a phone call from a family friend, Roscoe Pound, who also happened to be the former dean of the school, Munger was accepted and graduated magna cum laude with a J.D.
Munger had been married twice. His first marriage was to Nancy Jean Huggins in 1945 with whom he had three children. It ended in divorce in 1953. His second marriage was to Nancy Berry Borthwick in 1956 and lasted until she died in 2010. He had four children and two step-children with Borthwick.
Munger&rsquo;s philanthropy focused on education, donating to University of Michigan Law School, Stanford University, and Universtiy of California, Santa Barbara.
When Munger was in his 50s, he had a failed cataract surgery, which made him blind in his left eye, eventually removing it. He still had sight in his right eye.
Munger was the author of &ldquo;Poor Charlie&rsquo;s Almanack: The Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger&rdquo; and &ldquo;On Success.&rdquo;

Throughout almost a century of life experience, billionaire and Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/brk-a#NYSE">BRK-A</a>) (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/brk-b#NYSE">BRK-B</a>) vice chairman Charlie Munger has discovered the secret to a happy, healthy, wealthy life is learning to recognize and ignore one basic human emotion that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/05/32319092/secret-to-success-get-toxic-people-out-of-your-life-fast-says-billionaire-charlie-munger">weighs people down like an anchor.</a>
Forbes estimates Munger&#39;s wealth at roughly $2.4 billion, and he has spent a large portion of his career in the shadow of partner and Berkshire CEO Warren Buffett, who has an estimated net worth of $113.6 billion. However, instead of comparing himself to Buffett or any other billionaire, Munger says he simply focuses on his own financial success.
&quot;Someone will always be getting richer faster than you. This is not a tragedy,&quot; Munger once <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/news/857140/charlie-munger-on-envy-and-jealousy">famously said.</a>

Better Motivations: Instead of being envious of the possessions and accomplishments of others, Munger says his motivation throughout his career has been to achieve financial and professional freedom. By choosing not to construct and participate in an arbitrary mental competition&nbsp;among himself, Buffett, and all the other billionaires in the world, Munger can truly enjoy his success and not take on unnecessary financial risk chasing a dragon he will never catch.
&quot;The world is not driven by greed. It&rsquo;s driven by envy,&quot;&nbsp;Munger said at the recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RxLj9OVqLo&amp;ab_channel=YahooFinance">annual meeting</a> of the Daily Journal Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/djco#NASDAQ">DJCO</a>).
&quot;I don&rsquo;t give a damn what someone else has. But other people are driven crazy by it.&quot;
Not only is envy a sin, Munger said there&#39;s an argument for it being the worst sin of all.
&quot;Envy is a really stupid sin because it&rsquo;s the only one you could never possibly have any fun at. There&rsquo;s a lot of pain and no fun. Why would you want to get on that trolley?&quot;&nbsp;he once said.
Envy And Mental Health: Munger has also pointed out the irrationality of envy, comparing the conditions he lived through during the Great Depression to the high living standards of modern times. Despite drastic improvements to the average American&#39;s quality of life in the past century, there has been a significant deterioration of <a href="https://mhanational.org/issues/state-mental-health-america">mental health</a>, including&nbsp;a rise in anxiety and&nbsp;depression.&nbsp;
&ldquo;The fact that everybody&rsquo;s five times better off than they used to be, they take that for granted,&rdquo; Munger said. &ldquo;All they think about is somebody else [has] more now, and it&rsquo;s not fair that he should have it, and they don&rsquo;t.&rdquo;
In fact, Munger once mentioned eliminating envy as one of his six &quot;simple rules&quot; for living a long, happy, successful life:
&quot;You don&rsquo;t have a lot of envy. You don&rsquo;t have a lot of resentment. You don&rsquo;t overspend your income. You stay cheerful in spite of your troubles. You deal with reliable people. And you do what you&rsquo;re supposed to do.&quot;

<h3>What is a Value Stock?</h3>
A value stock traditionally has a lower price when compared to stock prices of companies in the same industry. This indicates that the company may be undervalued, as investors are not expressing as much interest in such companies. The most commonly used way to check for value is with the price-to-earnings multiple, or P/E. A low P/E multiple is a good indication that the stock is undervalued. 
<h2>Benzinga Insights has compiled a list of value stocks in the communication services sector that may be worth watching:</h2>
<ol>
<li>Genius Brands Intl (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNUS#NASDAQ">GNUS</a>) - P/E: 1.68</li>
<li>DISH Network (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DISH#NASDAQ">DISH</a>) - P/E: 7.96</li>
<li>Daily Journal (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJCO#NASDAQ">DJCO</a>) - P/E: 7.27</li>
<li>Altice USA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ATUS#NYSE">ATUS</a>) - P/E: 5.21</li>
<li>Reading Intl (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDI#NASDAQ">RDI</a>) - P/E: 6.84</li>
</ol>
Genius Brands Intl saw a decrease in earnings per share from -0.02 in Q2 to $-0.03 now. This quarter, DISH Network experienced a decrease in earnings per share, which was $0.88 in Q3 and is now $0.87. Daily Journal saw an increase in earnings per share from -1.03 in Q4 to $4.98 now. Altice USA saw a decrease in earnings per share from 0.58 in Q3 to $0.56 now. The company's most recent dividend yield sits at 10.8%, which has increased by 10.8% from 0.0% last quarter. 
Most recently, Reading Intl reported earnings per share at $-0.46, whereas in Q2 earnings per share sat at $-0.53. 
The Significance: A value stock may need some time to rebound from its undervalued position. The risk of investing in a value stock is that this emergence may never materialize.

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
After Charlie Munger&rsquo;s passing, investors began increasing speculation about Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway&rsquo;s (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/brk-a-stock-quote/">BRK-A</a>, NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/brk-b-stock-quote/">BRK-B</a>) succession plan. Buffett&rsquo;s top two prot&eacute;g&eacute;s are reported to be increasingly contributing to Berkshire&rsquo;s investment execution, but their specific investment strategies or moves tend to be concealed within Berkshire&rsquo;s more comprehensive reporting; i.e., there&rsquo;s no annotation within any SEC filings stating which investment officer executed which trade.



Still, we can look to history for hints about which trades made them rich beyond Berkshire. Doing so can reveal which sectors, trade multiples, and risk tolerance each prefers. Likewise, this could reveal one of the many directions Berkshire could take in the near future.



<h2>Wells Fargo (WFC)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/wfc-stock-3-300x169.jpg" alt="Wells Fargo (WFC) bank sign in yellow and red with wagon logo. The sign is flanked by tall grass"><div>Source: Ken Wolter / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Todd Combs is a man of many talents &mdash; a former hedge fund manager, current GEICO CEO, and one of Berkshire&rsquo;s most trusted investment managers. He&rsquo;s also one of two candidates positioned among analysts&rsquo; top picks to replace Warren Buffett. Given his background, it&rsquo;s little surprise that Combs loved financial service stocks and all the &ldquo;boring but big&rdquo; companies Buffett tends to favor. And Combs loves few <a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/financial/">financial stocks</a> as much as he does Wells Fargo (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/wfc-stock-quote/">WFC</a>). He&rsquo;s been buying the stock <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/news/113961/todd-combs-buys-crmt-gbli-and-wfc-sells-blk-cme-hig-indm-luk">since 2010</a> and likely made a tidy sum on the investment in the meantime.



Wells Fargo is shaking up as we speak and <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/wells-fargo-names-fernando-rivas-co-ceo-corporate-investment-banking-2024-05-08/">just appointed</a> former JP Morgan Chase (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/jpm-stock-quote/">JPM</a>) exec Fernando Rivas as co-CEO of its investment banking arm (Combs is also a board member for JP Morgan). Wells Fargo&rsquo;s performance is already stellar, having returned 25% since January and more than 50% over the past year. Hence, Combs&rsquo; conviction and continued optimization at Wells Fargo points to big things ahead for the stock favored by this Warren Buffett prot&eacute;g&eacute;.



<h2>Cogent Communications (CCOI)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/ccoi-stock-1-300x169.jpg" alt="A photo of the cogent logo inside a magnifying glass"><div>Source: Pavel Kapysh / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Ted Weschler is the other potential heir apparent to Warren Buffett&rsquo;s current position. Among other notable achievements, most know him for whopping gains in his personal retirement account generated solely through publicly traded company investing. That strategy is opposed to Peter Thiel, who took advantage of insider access to PayPal (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/pypl-stock-quote/">PYPL</a>) to turn stock options worth <a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/lord-of-the-roths-how-tech-mogul-peter-thiel-turned-a-retirement-account-for-the-middle-class-into-a-5-billion-dollar-tax-free-piggy-bank">pennies into billions</a>.



One of Weschler&rsquo;s biggest wins was an investment in Cogent Communications (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ccoi-stock-quote/">CCOI</a>), one of the earlier internet consumer service providers in the US. In the 2010s, he turned a <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/warren-buffett-deputy-ted-weschler-roth-ira-best-stock-investments-2021-6">$159,000 investment</a> into more than $51 million in just eight years. This shows two of Weschler&rsquo;s investment traits: his willingness to take risks on emerging trends (buying Internet stocks in the 2003 post-Dot Com era) and his skill in double-downing down when the investment turns in his favor.



There&rsquo;s definitely a difference between Cogent Communications and Wells Fargo. Depending on which of the two gets the top spot (if either), Berkshire&rsquo;s trajectory could vary considerably.



<h2>Daily Journal Corporation (DJCO)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="165" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/banksmsn-300x165.jpg" alt="As inflation increases, bank stocks are where to be"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>If you&rsquo;re nervous about its future and want to &ldquo;diversify&rdquo; into a more Berkshire-esque company before Buffett departs his role, you can always buy into Daily Journal Corporation&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/djco-stock-quote/">DJCO</a>). Charlie Munger, Buffett&rsquo;s <a href="https://investorplace.com/2023/12/in-memory-of-a-legend-7-stocks-that-charlie-munger-loved/">former second-in-command</a>, founded and formerly owned it. He structured similarly to Berkshire. Today, the conglomerate owns and invests similarly to Berkshire&rsquo;s best &ldquo;value first&rdquo; days.



Daily Journal&rsquo;s top four holdings, endorsed by Munger, include Wells Fargo, Bank of America (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/bac-stock-quote/">BAC</a>), Alibaba (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/baba-stock-quote/">BABA</a>) and US Bancorp (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/usb-stock-quote/">USB</a>). The company&rsquo;s shares have surged nearly 40% over the past year. In contrast, Berkshire Hathaway has seen a return of 25% during the same period, suggesting Munger&rsquo;s approach may be more attuned to value-driven economic conditions than Warren Buffett&rsquo;s. At the same time, it&rsquo;s a great way to honor Charlie Munger&rsquo;s legacy while acknowledging the strengths of the value-centric investing strategy across history.
