On today’s episode, Clay breaks down four wide moat stocks to be considered for 2023. If you’ve been following along with the show for quite some time, you know that Warren Buffett loves companies with wide moats. These are the companies that are most equipped to handle the constant disruption occurring in the capitalistic marketplace.
However, even some of the widest moat and highest quality companies can be a poor investment if you pay too high of a price, so I also brought that into consideration when selecting these four companies. If you enjoy learning about individual stocks and what makes a great company, you won’t want to miss this great episode.
