It's unsettling to see someone who told us to hold VOO for life acting this way. Would Nancy Pelosi's stock portfolio be a better predictor?
I'm so frustrated with the political climate and the way the world is going lately that I'm considering selling everything, converting it to cash, and putting it in the bank. But even that doesn't seem safe with fluctuating interest rates; it's all so frustrating.

Just because Buffett sold VOO doesn't mean "the American market is over!" VOO, an S&P 500 ETF, remains a suitable product for long-term investment, and Buffett himself recommends it for individual investors. In fact, Berkshire's increased cash reserves suggest he might see the market as overheated and is waiting for better opportunities.

Forced recession... maybe, maybe not.

That's concerning, but even more worrisome is their record-high cash holdings. They've been steadily increasing their cash reserves for the past few months. There's speculation that they're anticipating a recession.

It feels like Trump's presidency accelerated the recession... I'm increasing my cash position to cope.

But there are indeed few VOO potions.

I'm just using it for reference. Buffett's predicted scenario isn't the ultimate truth.

The Trump administration's policy of fiscal austerity suggests a gradual tightening of the money supply in the market. It seems we're facing rising unemployment and inflation—a real dilemma.
