Buffett Significantly Increases Cash Holdings, Awaiting Market Correction
Berkshire Hathaway, led by Warren Buffett, has raised its cash holdings to a record $189 billion in the second quarter of this year. This appears to be a defensive move, as the fund prepares for a potential larger market downturn. This strategy also provides Berkshire Hathaway with an opportunity to reinvest in the market at more reasonable valuation levels.
Berkshire Hathaway last held record cash levels before the 2022 bear market correction. Typically, Buffett increases cash for three main reasons, with two reasons particularly relevant now: maintaining cash on hand to seize opportunities in the market and increasing cash to protect the fund from market downturns.
However, the situation is more complex, and Buffett may be waiting for a market correction.
Historically, the S&P 500 index experiences a 20% or more correction approximately every 18 months. These healthy corrections provide an opportunity for market valuations to reset from overvalued states, which is why investors buy stocks again.
Buffett has also publicly expressed concerns about the market being overvalued, making holding cash until opportunities arise a wise strategy. Buffett is signaling that the market needs a reality check.

104175567 : yeah surely the market may correct post election or even before then, but I want to always emphasize here, holding cash unless you are living from paycheck to paycheck is the most dumbest habit you'll ever have, there's only one way to protect yourself from eroding your savings, work hard and put your money each time you get the income into assets, not cash
