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.

YouTube: Oaktree's Howard Marks on Credit Yields, Trump's Tariffs (Bloomberg Television)

I found this Howard Marks interview useful.

Talks about.

1. Disruption to the world economy and how America was built over the last 80 years through globalisation and specialisation. Used the shaken snow globe analogy. This is no longer thr case (Trump)

2. Market historically over valued still, to what degree? Figuring that out makes a great investor (Buffett)

3. No visibility on earnings

4. Unintended consequences and spin offs, unknown?

5. Can't value anything, too many unknowns.

So here we are with no visibility more uncertainty than he's seen in his lifetime and an overvalued market. This surely explains Buffetts large cash position.
