What was said around it

equivalent assets more attractive   but it wasn't until 2024 that Barkshire started  aggressively dumping stocks including 2thirds   of its largest position Apple in which Buffett  had invested $35 billion back in 2016 by the end   of 2024 Barkshshire had spent $9 billion on new  stock purchases and made $143 billion by selling   its existing holdings this caused the company's  pile of cash equivalent assets to almost double   in the space of a year raising many an eyebrow in  the investing world some have interpreted this as   a warning sign and speculate that Barkser's cash  hoarding has been preparing for some black swan   event be it a US recession or some other great  misfortune that Buffett is expecting after all   Buffett is famous for pulling off big bets during  once in a generation market crashes like when he   bought up a sizable position in Goldman Sachs at  a huge discount during the great financial crisis   of 2008 buffett is now the poster child or poster  pensioner I suppose for buying when the markets   are fearful and selling when they are greedy and  by Buffett's good old value investing standard   the US stock market has been getting very greedy  indeed with the average price
