US: Donald Trump says Warren Buffett makes a mistake selling airline stocks

US President Donald Trump Friday said Warren Buffett, often regarded as the world’s greatest investor, made a mistake by recently exiting a multi-billion dollar investment in the airline industry. Trump made his assessment at the White House, shortly after the US Labor Department reported an unexpected surge in May jobs, and five weeks after Buffett said his Berkshire Hathaway Inc sold its airline stakes. “Warren Buffett sold airlines a little while ago,” Trump said. “He’s been right his whole life, but sometimes even somebody like Warren Buffett — I have a lot of respect for him — they make mistakes. They should have kept the airline stocks because the airline stocks went through the roof today.” Buffett did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<br/>
