WTF are you talking about? Berkshire Hathaway literally owns 25% of Occidental Petroleum. It’s one of their biggest positions.

It is absolutely not one of their biggest positions, not even close. It's only 5% of their total investment. These claims are really easy to fact check and prove false https://www.buffett.online/en/portfolio/

Your own link shows his investments in chevron and OXY to be over 10% and his 5th and 6th largest positions respectively.

And Berkshire Hathaway is the single largest shareholder of OXY at 25% according to https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/OXY/holders

So to say "He invests in boring slow predictable companies, and not the oil industry." is false
