Here's what Warren Buffett says will be the ultimate growth industry!
Artificial intelligence (AI) has a lot of investors excited right now, yet billionaire investor Warren Buffett isn't one of them. Despite owning shares in companies such as Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Amazon, none of these investments were made solely based on their AI potential. In fact, Buffett seems to be quite cautious of the technology. Instead, he's warned investors that AI will give rise to an enormous amount of fraud, making scamming the biggest 'growth industry of all time'. Sticking to his principles Despite his hesitant stance, Buffett isn't blind to the benefits of this emerging technology. In the right hands, AI can be a remarkable tool with countless applications in finance, cybersecurity, automation, and work productivity among others. However, with so many businesses claiming to be the next big thing, Buffett and his team are remaining disciplined. They're focusing on the industries they understand the most, zooming in on the businesses with the widest competitive moats. That means rather than chasing speculative AI stocks, he's looking at the established players across the sectors that can leverage AI to improve their existing operations, using the proceeds to run phenomenal capital-return programmes. And right now, Apple seems to fit that bill. Exploring Apple's potential While Buffett's investment vehicle Berkshire Hathaway has trimmed its position in Apple throughout last year, it remains one of its largest holdings, representing 24% of the portfolio. As one of the largest consumer technology companies in the world, Apple produces an enormous amount of free cash flow driven by a loyal customer ecosystem. Since 2013, the company's been busy consistently buying back its own shares, with around $775bn spent over the last 12 years. To put this into perspective, that's enough money to buy the entirety of Visa with another $100bn to spare. And with management approving yet another $100bn in buybacks during 2025, the rewards for shareholders look set to continue, especially if the firm can deliver on its AI ambitions. So far, Apple has lagged when it comes to AI implementation. The rollout of Apple Intelligence has actually been quite slow and riddled with delays, which have seemingly continued into 2025. And the ongoing trade disruptions from newly-announced US tariffs aren't exactly helping matters, which have led to around a quarter of Apple's market-cap being lost in 2025. However, that might soon change. The company has a record number of revamped product launches in the second half of 2025. That includes four new iPhone models, and updates for its AirPods, Apple Watches, iPads, and MacBooks. And with plans to hire another 20,000 people over the next four years to expand its R&D capabilities, the firm might soon be catching up on the AI front, generating even more cash flow over the long run. Perhaps that's why Buffett continues to hold a significant chunk of shares. And it's why I think investors may want to take a closer look at this business.

Better Energy Stock: Diamondback Energy vs. Chevron
Key Points Chevron's integrated business and its rock-solid balance sheet help secure its dividend. Diamondback Energy is a well-run oil and gas company that offers good upside due to the potential for higher oil prices. Ultimately, the decision comes down to each individual's risk profile, but one stock stands out as a clear winner for passive income-seeking investors. 10 stocks we like better than Diamondback Energy › Comparing a pure-play exploration and production in the Permian Basin, Diamondback Energy (NASDAQ: FANG), with an integrated energy major, Chevron (NYSE: CVX), sheds light on many of the questions that oil and gas-focused investors face in the coming years. Let's take a look at which company might suit which type of investor better. The role of oil prices There's no getting around this question when investing in energy stocks, but the answers to it may not be immediately apparent. It's important to note that both these companies are very well run and pride themselves on a relatively low operating "break-even" oil price. This price represents the lowest price of oil needed to cover the cost of the company's operating expenses, existing wells (maintenance capital spending), and base dividend. Chevron's break-even price for oil is in the $30 per barrel range accoring to a Wood Mackenzie survey. Diamondback's management estimates its equivalent break-even price is $37 per barrel. That would appear to give Chevron the upper hand. However, consider that Chevron is an integrated major with substantial downstream and chemicals operations, which tend to perform well with a lower oil price; these factors are included in the break-even calculation. On the other hand, Diamondback is purely an exploration and production company. Moreover, Diamondback utilizes hedging to mitigate downside exposure to oil prices. Its hedges currently apply down to a price of oil of about $55 per barrel, meaning it has upside exposure to a price of oil above $55 per barrel. As such, you can think of Chevron's dividend (currently yielding 4.8%) as safe down to $30 per barrel, and Diamondback's base dividend (currently yielding 2.9%) as safe down to $37 per barrel. Consequently, if you are the type of investor primarily looking for yield and wanting to sleep safely at night, Chevron is the better investment for you. Don't forget the upside The flip side of the argument is that Diamondback has more exposure to a higher oil price, which is what one might expect, given that it's an exploration and production company. To provide some context for how this works, here's a look at Diamondback's management's estimated adjusted 2025 free cash flow (FCF) across a range of oil prices. For reference, Diamondback aims to return 50% of FCF to shareholders in the form of dividends (base and variable) and share buybacks. It has $1.845 billion remaining as part of a $6 billion share buyback authorization program. As of its first quarter, Diamondback made $829 million in share buybacks, equivalent to about $2.80 per share. Therefore, if management decided not to make any more buybacks and pay the remaining 50% in full-year FCF in dividends (base of $4, plus a variable dividend), then it could offer $5.20 in dividends, yielding 3.8%, assuming a price of oil of $60 a barrel. That theoretical figure rises $8.70 in dividends, yielding 6.4%, assuming a price of $80 a barrel. See what I mean by Diamondback having more upside exposure to the price of oil? Price of Oil per Barrel Free Cash Flow Free Cash Flow Per Share Free Cash Flow Yield (based on the current market price of Diamondback Energy of $136.5 a share) $50 per barrel $4.15 billion $14 10.3% $60 per barrel $4.85 billion $16 11.7% $70 per barrel $5.85 billion $20 14.7% $80 per barrel $6.85 billion $23 16.8% Data source: Diamondback Energy presentations. Table by author. In case you are wondering, based on these assumptions, the price of oil would have to be approximately $67 per barrel to get Diamondback's dividend yield to be equivalent to Chevron's current yield -- curiously enough, that's roughly the current price of oil now. Diamondback or Chevron? Ultimately, dividend-focused investors and those concerned about being overly exposed to oil prices will favor Chevron. In addition, Chevron's diversified operations (its production in the Permian is comparable to Diamondback's, but it has substantial other global assets, plus midstream and downstream operations) give it a place to focus its investment, even in the event of a sustained fall in oil prices. In contrast, other than reducing capital investment in response to lower prices (something Diamondback has already done this year), it's hard to think of what significant move a company like Diamondback can make. That said, many investors buy oil stocks precisely because they want exposure to the upside of oil, and Diamondback is a high-quality operator that has taken measures to limit its downside exposure. As such, nothing is stopping you from buying both stocks, as they are both attractive for passive income-seeking investors. Should you buy stock in Diamondback Energy right now?

7 Toiletry Bag Hacks I Swear by as a Travel Editor After Losing $200 in Products at Airport Security
As a travel editor, I'm always eagerly trying to plan my next trip so I can test new gear and debunk viral hacks. The biggest packing lesson I've learned in my decade of travel? Never underestimate your toiletry bag. This became abundantly clear on my last trip to London, when my poorly packed toiletry bag single-handedly ruined my experience abroad. I'd foolishly stuffed and stashed as many toiletries, skincare jars, and makeup products as I could into my small bag, which subsequently ripped mid-way through the trip from the constant tugging, squishing, and pushing it endured with every use. In addition to leaky toiletries and hogging precious luggage space, the overstuffed toiletry bag also got me flagged on my return flight to New York. Since it exceeded England's liquid carry-on limit, I had to exit the security line and toss $200 worth of beloved products from Charlotte Tilbury, Armani Beauty, and other pricey brands, resulting in a mad dash through the security line and the airport to make it to my gate. Now, you won't catch me holding up TSA or wrestling with a toiletry bag that's bursting at the seams, and it's all thanks to these genius packing tips. Keep scrolling to find out which products you need to hack your toiletry bag. These tips are useless if you don't have the proper toiletry bag. When I went abroad, I was toting around a bulky pouch with no pockets or organizational features that quickly took up room in my carry-on. Now, I travel with the Béis Dopp Kit, which includes a space-doubling zippered compartment and plenty of thoughtful slip pockets to keep everything organized and compactly stored. Over at Amazon, travelers have a great deal of toiletry bags and Dopp kits to choose from. If you're prone to overpacking, I recommend starting with the Eachy toiletry bag, while the Bagsmart Dopp Kit is great for weekend trips and long vacations that require shampoo, conditioner, and other toiletries. Recently, I learned that compression packing cubes also make suitable toiletry bags. Try the smallest compression cube from Bagail's top-rated set; you can suck the air out of it to free up extra space in your personal item or carry-on. Even if your go-to toiletry or skincare product comes in a tiny package, you still want to transfer it to a travel bottle. This way, you're only bringing what you need and definitely staying within the carry-on liquid requirements. Plus, they're made for travel, so you don't have to worry about anything leaking, breaking, or awkwardly fitting in your toiletry bag. Over at Amazon, you can score all-in-one value sets, like the MrsDry eight-pack set and Morfone 16-piece set that comes with travel-sized jars for lotion, moisturizer, and hair creams, or the 18-piece Tocelffe set that includes tiny jars for liquid foundation, concealer, and more if you're tight on space. Whenever I go on a weekend trip, I use my Depoza travel bottle set, which I love for the travel-sized sprayer that fits my Rôz Air Thickening Leave-in Spray and other hair care essentials inside its compact clear bag. When transferring your toiletries and beauty products into travel bottles isn't an option, you'll want to make sure that you've got them ready to go in TSA-approved, travel-sized containers. Luckily, almost every product comes in a travel-friendly mini version (which is great if you've been wanting to try a product but don't want to pay full price). At the top of my travel-sized must-haves is the Ilia Base Face Milk, which adds extra hydration to your skin when you're on the go (whether you're doing your nighttime routine after a long day in the sun or need to get rid of dryness before putting on your makeup). Speaking of hydration, the Epicuren Papaya Pineapple After Bath Body Lotion is another toiletry non-negotiable that happens to be a celeb-loved product (Kim Kardashian is a longtime fan); it hardly takes up any space in your toiletry bag, and it performs way better than the hotel-provided hand and body lotion. Don't forget about the makeup minis: I always keep a tiny bottle of Charlotte Tilbury's Hollywood Flawless Filter in my toiletry bag because, when it's on, I don't need foundation (thus simplifying my packing list). Another pro tip: palettes are your best friends, especially when they come in travel sizes. The Natasha Denona Mini Bronze + Glow palette is like packing three makeup products in one; it covers bronzer, highlight, and eyeshadow if you put a little bit of both products on your eyes. Nothing fills up a toiletry bag faster than pill bottles. I usually travel with probiotics, melatonin gummies, and my daily medications—plus Ibuprofen, Benadryl, Dramamine, Pepcid, and other important "just in case" medications depending on where I'm traveling. Instead of jamming multiple bottles and jars into my toiletry bag, I opt for the Holli pill organizer for small trips and the Bexeen pill organizer for longer ones (it has eight compartments that are perfect for everything I'd need). Those with routines to follow will want to check out the slim, weekly pill organizer from Vaydeer, and the Fyy Daily Pill Organizer is also great for organizing multiple medicine shapes, sizes, and quantities without taking up too much space. Pro tip: Use the unused compartments in your pill organizer for tiny things like jewelry, Q-tips, cotton rounds, nail clippers, and more, so you don't need another travel case for them. Your skincare routine isn't the only part of your packing list that should be downsized. For extra space, I've learned that traveling with mini versions of my go-to tools can help free clutter from my toiletry bag. For example, I always had the tendency to bring my full-sized brush with me on every trip. Now, I bring the mini Emi Jay Boar Bristle Hair Brush (it's compact enough to fit in a toiletry bag or in your carry-on's unsuspecting pockets if you don't have the toiletry bag space). The same goes for my toothbrush; instead of being weighed down by my bulky electric toothbrush and its charging base, I bring the Philips Sonicare Electric Toothbrush that runs on batteries and comes with a small travel case. You can also save space by bringing a mini hair straightener instead of a full-size version. The most effective way I've found to stop overpacking my toiletry bag is to simplify my getting-ready routine. This is not easy, especially if you're someone who likes to have a specific product for everything. To ensure that there are no holes in your travel routine, opt for products that multitask. For example, the IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream covers your sunscreen and foundation, so you don't need to pack a separate SPF and coverup. Similarly, you can reduce the products in your hair care routine by packing the R+Co Cool Wind Air Dry Hair Cream, which doubles as a leave-in conditioner and a styling product (you don't even need a hair dryer!). I also like to travel with skincare products that cater to multiple skin concerns, like the Glow Deep Serum from K-beauty-favorite brand Beauty of Joseon (snag the mini size in this $20 travel-sized set) that hydrates and brightens. When I really don't have space, I reach for my celebrity facialist-approved Elemis Resurfacing Pads and Loops MicroCellular Moisturizing Pads, which are more travel-friendly than their liquid cleanser and moisturizer counterparts. You know what was actually hogging up the most space in my toiletry bag? Makeup brushes. I had a brush for every part of my face, and it wasn't until recently that I realized that I could save room by switching to dual-sided makeup brushes, like this dual-ended liquid makeup brush from E.l.f. Cosmetics that is only $9. For foundation, I've found that the Kevin Aucoin Duet Foundation Brush works best, while the Makeup by Mario E6 Dual-ended Eyeshadow Brush is perfect for eyeshadow. If you're packing powder blushes, highlights, and setting powder, then you'll want Dibs Beauty's dual-ended Duo Brush Face for Cream + Powder (it also comes in handy for créme products, too).
