If someone appears to be repeatedly personal, lean towards patience as they might not mean offense. If you are sure, however, then do not deepen the problem by being negative; instead, simply place them on ignore by clicking the unhappy yellow face to the right of their name.

https://www.berkshirehathaway.com/news/2025news.ht... I went back 20 years to try to find a comparable press release in tone to "False Social Media Reports" on Friday and couldn't. The current cash position and that press release are not SOP at Berkshire.

Warren Buffett has not traded minor swings in the market in size as long as I have been watching him, and I seriously doubt he is doing so now. The Dow was at 45k at the beginning of February, and right now futures are pointing to an opening of 37.5k or only a 16.7% pullback. Rebuilding positions at this level would barely cover the costs associated with exiting them.

If he thought this was only a short term dislocation, he would not have sold in the way he did.
