Munger’s move into stocks began in 2009 after keeping most of the investment funds of his company, Daily Journal (DJCO), in cash and U.S. Treasurys. Initially, he sold most of the Treasurys earning nominal interest to buy $15.5 million in stocks of two Fortune 200 companies, saying he “took advantage of near-panic selling in the stock market.” By September 2010, the unnamed stocks had provided a $9.30 million gain.
By 2010, the stocks were worth $43.05 million. In 2011, Munger deployed $11.15 million to buy more common stocks, and his cost basis of $20.96 million had grown to a value of $52.46 million. In 2012, Munger sold more U.S. Treasury Bills to drop $18.11 million on common stocks, revealing in his annual report that they were again of two Fortune 200 companies, as well as of two foreign manufacturing companies. At the end of the fiscal year, Munger’s $44.76 million investment in common stocks was worth $94.06 million.
