On the Buffett-Fit framework, White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. (WTM) currently grades higher than BRK.A — 28/100 (F grade) vs 28/100 (F).

The full pillar breakdown is on this page.

Should I buy BRK.A or WTM?

This page is an educational comparison, not investment advice. Both BRK.A and WTM are graded against the same Buffett 5-pillar framework (moat, earnings durability, management quality, financial health, valuation) plus six other documented investor frameworks. Read the side-by-side breakdown to see which one matches the criteria you care about most — and always do your own research before making any investment decision.

Is BRK.A better than WTM for value investing?

The two are close on the headline Buffett-Fit score (28/100 vs 28/100), so "better for value investing" depends on which pillar you weight most. The five Buffett pillars + six other frameworks are broken down side-by-side on this page so you can pick the one that fits your style.

What's the difference between BRK.A and WTM on Warren Buffett's framework?

Both stocks are evaluated on the same five pillars: economic moat (durable competitive advantage), earnings durability (consistent profitability), management quality (capital allocation), financial health (conservative balance sheet), and valuation (margin of safety). BRK.A currently scores 28/100 (F grade); WTM scores 28/100 (F grade). The "Where each wins" section on this page breaks down which pillar each stock dominates.

Which has the stronger moat, BRK.A or WTM?

Moat strength is one of the five pillars in the Buffett-Fit score on this page. BRK.A and WTM are each scored on ROIC sustainability, gross-margin durability, and qualitative signals like brand strength, switching costs, network effects, and regulatory barriers. The pillar breakdown on this page shows the moat sub-score side-by-side so you can see which one has the more durable competitive advantage.

Which is more undervalued, BRK.A or WTM?

Valuation is one of the five Buffett-Fit pillars on this page. Both stocks are scored on owner-earnings yield, price-to-intrinsic-value vs the underlying compounding rate, and the margin of safety relative to a conservative DCF. The valuation sub-score in the table below tells you which one currently trades at a more attractive price relative to its underlying business quality.

Can you compare BRK.A (Financials) and WTM (Financial Services) directly?

BRK.A is a Financials stock and WTM is in Financial Services, so this is a cross-sector comparison. The Buffett-Fit scoring on this page applies sector-relative bonuses to each stock against its own sector benchmarks, so the cross-sector comparison is still meaningful — but for the cleanest like-for-like, sector peers usually compare better than cross-sector pairs.

Is this BRK.A vs WTM comparison investment advice?

No. This page is an educational pattern-match against documented public frameworks (Buffett, Graham, Fisher, Lynch, Greenblatt, Munger, Smith), not personalised investment advice. The scores reflect how closely each stock matches each framework's documented criteria — they are not buy/hold/sell recommendations. Always do your own research and consult a licensed financial adviser for personalised advice.
