Yikes, looking back at that 2000-2009 stretch. That’s a CAGR of about 4.5%.
Or how about June 1998-June 2012 time span? A CAGR of 3.25% over 14 years, before the parabolic rise of the last 13 years.
It’s always a good reminder for me to remember how long Berkshire can sort of flatline for a decade or so.
I suspect, but don't know, that these would be the times when the DITM LEAPs for 2X leverage would work well. I don't know what the P/B was in those days.
Yeah, testfol.io for June 1998-June 2012 says 3.86% for BRK and 2.88% for SPY.
Interesting charts. BRK crashed in 1999-2000 while SPY zoomed up, then crashed down in mid-2000 to 2003 while BRK recovered.
Both got creamed in 2008-2009.
Since then they moved like twins.
