Buffett Quality
50 stocks that fit Warren Buffett's playbook: profitable, durable, fairly-valued, shareholder-friendly businesses you wouldn't mind owning for the next decade. This list is philosophy-agnostic within the investing question (it's for anyone who wants great companies) and style-agnostic about how you deploy the capital — buy-and-hold, write LEAPs, or wheel them.
Selection Criteria
- Market cap ≥ $10B — established businesses only
- Positive TTM earnings — no money-losers

- Ranked 'quality at fair price' (100 pts): Size 25 · Profitability 20 · Valuation 15 · Conviction 15 · Stability 15 · Shareholder 10

Frequently Asked Questions
How often is Buffett Quality rebuilt?
Monthly — we rebuild on the 1st Monday of each month. Fundamentals change slowly; a monthly cadence produces signal, not noise.
Why doesn't X appear on the list?
Either it failed a hard gate (market cap, earnings, blocked category) or it didn't score into the top 50. Scroll to the 'Recently Removed' section to see why names drop off each month.
Is this the exact same list Buffett holds?
No. Buffett's actual edge is judgment, not data — he holds through volatility in ways a screen can't replicate. Treat this as the starting universe for research, not a buy list.
