While Warren Buffett draws legions of copy-cat investors, studying the market moves of his friend and fellow value fan Bill Gates also may be instructive -- and profitable. Several current holdings of Cascade Investment, Gates' 14-year-old investment vehicle, have paid big returns already, while the Kirkland, Wash.-based company's more recent bets, on stocks such as Mexican brewer Fomento Económico Mexicano, or Femsa (ticker: FMX), look promising.
