Reddit user weighs shifting cash into Berkshire after Nasdaq losses
A Reddit user on r/stocks says they took a large hit in the Nasdaq and is considering moving remaining cash into Berkshire Hathaway, citing its large cash holdings and recent outperformance. The post states Berkshire is up 12.5% this month and about 2% down over the last two days, and that it holds $360B+ in cash. The user also notes Berkshire bought Google for about $30-35B as a potential drawback.
