For all intents and purposes, Warren Buffett, the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A)(NYSE:BRK-B) is the greatest value investor alive. He may not be the richest man on the planet -- that's title currently belongs to Microsoft's Bill Gates -- but Buffett is by far the most adept investor of all time, given that, starting with less than $10,000, he was able to use his market smarts over six decades to turn that into what amounts to a nearly $61 billion net worth according to Forbes as of Feb. 15, 2016.
Of course, not everything has gone Buffett's way. Despite being a wildly celebrated investor, Buffett has been wrong plenty of times as well. His most recent stinging loss came from U.K.-based grocer Tesco, which was never able to turn its business around, and Buffett's slowness to sell Berkshire Hathaway's stake caused it to take a hefty loss in the investment. Here are three stocks Buffett probably regrets selling in hindsight: Home Depot (NYSE:HD), Lowe's (NYSE:LOW) and Disney (NYSE:DIS).
