It's hard to compare tech investors to Warren Buffet. He doesn't do tech because he doesn't know it. He invests in what he knows, which tend to be companies that have a physical deliverable.
- juiceandjuice 16y agoI think he knows about tech. I think he doesn't invest in it because it's volatile.
- tsotha 16y agoIn the past he's pretty much said straight out he doesn't understand it. You can take that a couple of different ways. I doubt he's a technophobe, but I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't really understand the difference between, say, an application and and operating system.
- Swannie 16y agoWell I'd argue Warren has bought into tech, just physical delivery tech, not pure software tech. This is understandable tech. Particularly I'm thinking of Iscar, who use some of the most advanced manufacturing techniques to make special tools for metal working. It would be hard to argue that this company don't very heavily leverage software, to the point where is part of their product. http://www.iscar.com/ http://www.iscar.com/ MiTek is another company, who specifically sell engineering software, along with building technology: connectors, joists, beams, roofing etc. www.mitek.com
