Put the Money in an ETF
Several commenters recommended Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHD#NYSE">SCHD</a>) as a core holding because of its dividend yield, historical growth, and the low-risk, diversified exposure it offers investors.
&#8220;Go all in SCHD. Low risk, nice 3.5% starting yield and it will just keep growing,&#8221; a commenter said.
Reinforcing the idea that SCHD fits the poster&#8217;s long-term stability and dividend payout need, this Redditor also suggested he goes with SCHD: &#8220;Since you want some growth and decent payout, SCHD is a great option. 3.5% dividends and 11% growth over the last 10 years each year.&#8221;
&#8220;I would stick with S&amp;P 500 ETFs being young. Put it in a self-direct investment retirement account to avoid taxes,&#8221; a comment reads.

A commenter mentioned United Parcel Service (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) as a great pick since the company seems to start focusing on higher profit margin areas.
&#8220;UPS pays a solid dividend and the share price has been beaten down a lot on the news that they are reducing Amazon deliveries to focus on higher profit margin areas,&#8221; he said.
Suggesting a very detailed portfolio allocation, this Redditor mentioned several ETFs and individual stocks that he considers would help the poster reach his dividend and growth goals.

Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on AXP Options

Visa Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>) has reportedly proposed a $100 million payment to Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) to secure the Apple Card network. This move comes amid fierce competition among the country&#8217;s leading payment networks.
What Happened: Apple Card is up for grabs as Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>), the bank currently backing it, plans to exit the consumer lending sector. Major banks such as JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) and Synchrony Financial are vying to take over as the card issuer. Visa has stepped in with a $100 million bid to secure the Apple Card network,
Visa, Apple and Mastercard did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment. 
Meanwhile, payment networks, including Visa Inc. and American Express Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>), are in a tight race to replace Mastercard Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>) as the network for the Apple Card. Apple Inc. is expected to choose a network for its card before selecting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/01/43019382/apple-eyes-barclays-and-synchrony-to-replace-goldman-sachs-as-credit-card-partner-report">bank to replace</a> Goldman Sachs Group Inc. Visa Inc., the largest network, has made a bold bid to win the card, offering an upfront payment to Apple that is typically reserved for the largest card programs, according to a report by <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/banking/apple-card-visa-mastercard-deal-3ce762da">The Wall Street Journal</a>.

Mastercard Inc. is also making a strong effort to retain its role as the network for the Apple Card, exploring the use of its fintech, Finicity, to enable consumers to view their deposit-account balances within the Apple ecosystem.
Why It Matters: The Apple card program, with approximately $20 billion in balances, is one of the largest co-branded deals to change issuers. The network that secures this deal is expected to remain closely connected to Apple&#8217;s future payment efforts. Visa Inc. remains the undisputed scale leader in the payments industry, but Mastercard Inc. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44435113/visa-vs-mastercard-the-heavyweight-bout-of-payments">has been outpacing </a>its rival in growth. This competition for the Apple card network could significantly impact the balance of power in the payments industry.
The outcome of this competition could have significant implications for the future of Apple&#8217;s payment efforts and the payments industry at large.

困難が迫ると、強者は動き出す。この格言は、2025年3月における株式市場に真実味があったと言えるだろう。つまり、ウォーレン・バフェット率いるバークシャー・ハサウェイ（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>）の株価が2010年以来の最も好調なパフォーマンスを示している。
オマハを拠点とバークシャー・ハサウェイは、2月に10.3％上昇し、2022年3月以来の最高月を記録し、3月にはさらに2.5％上昇した。
一方、SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF トラスト（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>）は、2月に1.3％下落、3月は5％近く減少した。
バークシャーのS&amp;P 500に対するアウトパフォームは2月以来20％ポイントとプラス、2010年2月以来の同指数に対する2ヶ月間の最大のパフォーマンスになった。
2024年、バークシャーはS&amp;P 500を1.8%のわずか差でアウトパフォームを上回っただけだった。
木曜日にバークシャー・ハサウェイの株価は、ついに史上最高値を記録し、528.73ドルで終了した。
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-834719" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20163601/image-185-1024x529.png" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20163601/image-185-1024x529.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20163601/image-185-300x155.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20163601/image-185-768x396.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20163601/image-185-1536x793.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20163601/image-185.png 1920w" alt="" width="1024" height="529" /></figure>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">バフェットの長期的な視点は揺るがない</h3>
この株価の上昇の勢いは、バフェット氏の長年の投資哲学と一致しており、バークシャーの株主に対する最新の年次報告書で詳細に説明されている。
93歳の億万長者は、長期的なアプローチを強調している。「長期的に見ると、利益がでる可能性が高いと考えている。そうでなければ、どうして私たちはを株式を買うのだろうか？ 一方で、年によっては数字は予想くできないほど大きく動く。私たちの投資に対する視点は、ほとんど1年で終わることがない。多くの場合、数十年にわたる。このような長期的な投資が、時としてレジのベルが教会の鐘のように鳴り響く。」
また、バフェット氏は、バークシャーが米国の最高額納税者であることも主張しており、評価額が1兆ドルを超えるハイテク大手企業を含む米国のどの企業よりも多く法人所得税を支払ったとコメントしている。2024年だけでも、バークシャーは4回にわたり合計268億ドルをIRSへ納税している。これは、米国に支払われている法人税の約5％を占めている。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">バークシャーの主な保有銘柄</h3>
2024年12月時点のバークシャーの最新フォーム13(13F)によると、アップル（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>）が引き続き同社最大の保有株で、ポートフォリオの28.1％を占めている。次いで、アメリカン・エキスプレス（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>）が16.8％、バンク・オブ・アメリカ（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>）が11.2％である。
