沃伦·巴菲特:伯克希尔 1986 年致股东信·补录 2

The second category of investments open to our insurance companies is long-term bonds. These are unlikely to be of interest to us except in very special situations, such as the Washington Public Power Supply System #1, #2 and #3 issues, discussed in our 1984 report. (At yearend, we owned WPPSS issues having an amortized cost of $218 million and a market value of $310 million, paying us $31.7 million in annual tax-exempt income.) Our aversion to long-term bonds relates to our fear that we will see much higher rates of inflation within the next decade. Over time, the behavior of our currency will be determined by the behavior of our legislators. This relationship poses a continuing threat to currency stability - and a corresponding threat to the owners of long-term bonds.

白话

巴菲特说,保险资金可以投长期债券,但除非极特殊情况,他们一般不碰。他举了华盛顿公共电力供应系统的例子:年底持有摊余成本2.18亿美元、市值3.1亿美元的债券,每年带来3170万美元免税收入。他不爱长债,是因为担心未来十年通胀会明显抬头;而货币稳不稳,取决于立法者的行为,这对长债持有人是持续威胁。核心是:买长期固定收益资产前,先想清楚通胀和政策风险会不会吃掉你的购买力。

上下文

1986年信里,巴菲特解释伯克希尔保险资金为何回避长期债券,并回顾1984年信中的WPPSS案例。

今日一问

你手里的长期固定收益资产,有没有认真算过通胀和政策变化带来的风险?
