Buffett, Dividends, and the Nvidia Red Flag

By Tony Hicks

Buffett, Dividends, and the Nvidia Red Flag is a fictional financial thriller that blends market drama with timeless investing wisdom. Set in the heart of Wall Street during the peak of the AI boom, the story follows Cassandra Reid, a young and rising portfolio manager, as she investigates an unexpected move by the legendary Warren Buffett: a quiet exit from Nvidia, the hottest stock in the world. As AI hype reaches a fever pitch and investors abandon traditional metrics in pursuit of exponential growth, Cassandra digs into the fundamentals, uncovering unsettling patterns beneath the surface of Nvidia's meteoric rise.

This novel explores the psychology of markets, the seduction of hype, and the quiet discipline of value investing. Through Cassandra's journey, readers are introduced to core investing principles championed by Buffett-dividends, margin of safety, capital discipline, and the importance of understanding risk before chasing reward. The story also draws parallels between Nvidia's position in the 2020s and past market darlings like Cisco in the early 2000s, showing how even great companies can become dangerous investments when priced for perfection.

It's important for readers to note that this book is a work of fiction. As of this writing, Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway have never held a position in Nvidia. The story's premise is a creative exploration of how a Buffett-style investor might respond to modern market dynamics. While the characters, events, and financial decisions are fictionalized, the book is grounded in real-world market principles and aims to entertain, educate, and provoke thoughtful reflection about how we invest-and why.
