  • Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-B, BRK-A) cash holding reached a record $325.2 billion in the third quarter as the firm sells off its stake in companies like Apple (AAPL) and Bank of America (BAC). Portfolio Wealth Advisors president and CIO Lee Munson joins Morning Brief Hosts Seana Smith and Brad Smith. Munson tells Yahoo Finance that Berkshire's growing cash pile reflects Warren Buffett's strategy to sell high, saying, "I think you're going to have to see a market that trades much lower in valuation before you get him to do anything. And if he does anything that's not in a market that's getting crushed in its valuation, I think it's because he's going to look at things that he knows best or that are doing best and that's going to be in energy or in some of these industrial aerospace things that have been working well." Watch the video above for more on Munson's read of Berkshire's cash holdings and what's next for Warren Buffett.

    I feel investors need to be focus on under-the-radar stocks, and considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, Because 20% of my $75k portfolio comprises of plummeting stocks which were once revered and i don't know where to go here out of devastation.

      I agree that there are strategies that can be put in place for solid gains regardless of economy or market condition, but such executions are usually carried out by investment experts or advisors with experience

      Many people minimise the role of advisors until their own feelings get enraged. When I needed a boost to keep my firm viable years ago, I looked for licensed advisors and found someone with the highest qualifications. She has contributed to my reserve increasing to over $550,000 despite inflation.

    Anyone ,who remembers high school math, can see that the long term Dow curve is an exponential curve that has made the upward turn approaching singularity. It is the example of the wise man who asked the king for one grain of rice for the first square on the chessboard and two grains for the second, then 4 grains for the third...... just double for each square. Google 2to the 64th power. 18,000,000,000,000,000,000 The Dow is long past any reality and is becoming more like Russian roulette with 5 bullets in the chamber instead of one. Reality is around $25,000, it just takes some shock to burst the bubble. Warren is waiting for a buying opportunity.

      Let's not get carried away. Buffet isn't clairvoyant. His super power is patiences, not predicting future events. We have been in a bull market for the past 15 years. So a crash always looks like its coming. We all can speculate why Buffet has so much cash. Simple answer, there is nothing to buy. Market is at best over valued. At worst fairly valued. But definitely not undervalued.
