The Outlook for Berkshire Hathaway
I am quoted in this Business Insider article on Berkshire Hathaway and Warren Buffett.
Here’s what eight Buffett experts told Insider about Berkshire’s current outlook. Their comments have been lightly edited for length and clarity:
1. David Kass, a Buffett blogger and finance professor at the University of Maryland:
“Elevated inflation and rising interest rates are likely to depress operating earnings. But they may present investment opportunities for Berkshire if the equity markets decline substantially in the weeks ahead.”
“Berkshire’s cash position equaled $129 billion at the end of last year. I would like to see Buffett put more cash to work such as continuing to increase his stake in Occidental Petroleum at attractive prices and accelerating his buying back of Berkshire shares at current or lower prices.”
