Stocks: Buffett is no Longer Investing in Aviation

Aviation and financial results

Once-thriving aviation industry came to a standstill due to the coronavirus pandemic. Moreover, many airlines cloud stop to exist with financial aid. Governments around the world are ready to support the aviation industry.

Moreover, people should not forget that the aviation industry is cash-intensive and has a narrow economic moat. Also, the pandemic had a tremendous impact on the industry as most of the airlines canceled a lot of flights.

Warren Buffett decided to no longer invest in aviation stocks. It is not hard to understand why this billionaire changed his mind regarding this industry.

Governments introduced measures to curb traveling. Thus, airlines made the decision to reduce the number of employees. Furthermore, this uncertainty makes airlines stocks a volatile investment until the industry will get back on track. As a result, it made sense to sell airline stocks.

His decisions and opinions influence many investment strategies. At the moment, analysts, investors are closely monitoring the situation. The coronavirus crisis created a lot of questions about the future of the aviation industry. It won’t be easy to reassure the investors after the world’s fourth-richest person sold aviation stocks.
