“You don’t spend cash for sport. You wait for blood.”
– Warren “root” Buffett, Age 94
He's not playing the hype.
He’s waiting for collapse.
Sitting on $347.7B in dry powder, Buffett is watching markets choke on their own valuations.

Stock traders didn’t blink long though.
Because BRK.A went up anyway—+20% YTD, closing at $809,808.50 per share.
Why?
Because Berkshire isn’t a stock. It’s a nation.

Buffett hit “sell” for the 10th straight quarter.

🧠 SYSTEM CONTEXT: BRK ISN’T BROKE — IT’S BUFFING
Berkshire’s not slowing. It’s coiling.
This isn’t a tech startup.
This is deep-time capitalism.
He’s not spending the $347B because he knows:
“Every bear market is a buffet for Berkshire.”
And he’ll eat. Like always.
