The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Even if we all 100% agree on the solution ...

You are correct that chaos brings out the non-Brk comments on this board. It is obvious that (unless there are unspoken lurkers), that none of us can change the situation.

I'm pretty sure that there are "some" on this board who have seen their personal net worth take a hit over the past couple of weeks. So it's not a situation we can solve, but it is however, a situation which, if we understand its dynnamics, we can perhaps make incremental profit as it evolves.

While it is generally understood that one cannot time the market, sometimes one can.

While this board concentrates on making money over the long haul with Brk, the emphisis is on the words "making money" and there are some pretty shrewd (pun more or less intended) investors hanging out heere.
