Succeeding With This Stock May Require Investors to Out-Buffett Warren Buffett. Here’s Why.
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LInkedIn


Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway sold more stock than it bought in 2024, so it likely raised some eyebrows when the company revealed its position in Constellation Brands (NYSE: STZ).

However, that investment has likely lost value for Berkshire so far as tariff fears and falling alcohol consumption have weighed on Constellation stock. This could mean that Berkshire needs to lean more into Buffett’s strategy and not less. Here’s why.

Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue »

On the surface, Constellation looks like a Buffett stock. Buffett likes “forever” stocks with product demand that never ends. People have consumed alcohol since the beginning of time, so Constellation’s product selection would certainly qualify. Constellation also produces the U.S.’s No. 1 beer, Modelo Especial, meaning it bought a market leader, a distinction top investors tend to seek.

Moreover, Buffett has always been a value investor, and the current state of Constellation Brands points to a low valuation. Indeed, some one-time charges raised its P/E ratio to 47. Still, at a forward P/E ratio of 15, the stock appears to trade at a significant discount.

Additionally, its price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 3.4 shows that the metric is coming off its lowest levels since the beginning of the pandemic. That P/S ratio fell from 6 in 2022.

Furthermore, Buffett and his team probably saw an opportunity due to its abysmal stock performance. Constellation stock had generally tracked the S&P 500 until it stopped rising in 2023 and declined more recently.

One of the more recent concerns is the tariff worries that caught investors off guard, including possibly Buffett himself. Constellation’s portfolio includes numerous imports including several Mexican beers like Modelo and Corona and spirits such as Casa Noble Tequila. Since these products will probably become more expensive, sales will likely fall, and Modelo could lose its No. 1 position.

However, the situation opens the possibility of a unique investing opportunity: the chance to “out-Buffett” Buffett.

One way is by buying shares at a lower valuation. Since Buffett’s team bought shares in the fourth quarter, they bought at a P/S ratio between 4 and 4.4. As mentioned before, shares are available at 3.4 times sales, and since more declines are possible, one may conceivably buy shares at a lower valuation if the sell-off continues.

Story Continues

Second, new shareholders could earn a higher dividend yield. Currently, its annual payout of $4.08 per share yields about 2.2%, which is significantly more than the approximate 1.5% dividend yield of the S&P 500.

Additionally, it has raised its dividend annually since payouts began in April 2015. Although last year’s payout hike was only a 1% increase, the dividend has often risen by double-digit percentages. Also, Constellation’s $1.9 billion in free cash flow in fiscal 2025 (ended Feb. 28) far exceeded the $732 million cost of the dividend, meaning it can probably afford further payout hikes.

Admittedly, Berkshire’s Q1 purchases will not be known until it releases its 13-F, and it is possible Buffett’s team added shares in the previous or current quarters. Still, if one can make all purchases at a lower share price, this might be a time when investors can beat Buffett’s returns.

Despite Berkshire’s investment, Constellation Brands faces near-term uncertainty amid rising tariffs and falling consumption. Thus, investors should not assume that the stock has bottomed or will bottom soon.

Still, Berkshire’s investment team likely saw an opportunity since it began buying at a higher price than today’s. Indeed, the low valuation, prospects for rising dividend returns, and history of at least matching the market’s performance may present an opportunity. With the possible chance of earning higher returns than Berkshire, investors have an increased incentive to begin adding Constellation shares.

Before you buy stock in Constellation Brands, consider this:

The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Constellation Brands wasn’t one of them. The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years.

Consider when Netflix made this list on December 17, 2004… if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you’d have $594,046!* Or when Nvidia made this list on April 15, 2005… if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you’d have $680,390!*
