Yup. If you really want to play the "Oracle of Omaha" game, Buffett has been largely sitting out the entire market, preferring cash over any equities. The exact opposite of the lie Trump himself is pushing.
And Buffett has been right.

Also, Buffett went to 70% cash back in late 2024. Look at the ticker today and you can see why.

Take a simple example: I run a trade deficit with Trader Joe's buying their meals, while they buy none of mine. My trade deficit as a share of my imports is 100%.
By Trump's trade logic, this deficit is evidence they're imposing 100% tariffs on the meals I try to sell them. Obviously this is false.

Every single Republican stooge who claimed Trump truly meant it when he said he’d expand IVF coverage — despite his track record to the contrary — owes America an apology. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
CDC's IVF team gutted even as Trump calls himself the 'fertilization president'
