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.

Probably a bad idea, but we'll see.

Well, I don't know about that.

Here's what the price/book is looking like today:
Fri Feb 2 05:13:25 PM CST 2024
From ycharts: P/B 1.618 for Feb. 2, 2024
From alphaquery: P/B 1.57
From macrotrends: P/B 1.58 February 01, 2024

It's getting up there.
I took off all my DITM calls this week, and did a covered call. I will be really surprised if that gets called and it'll be like selling BRK.B for 409.01.

I have plugged BRK into my timing strategy spreadsheet and did *not* find any reasonable set of price/action trigger points that improve on buy&hold.
