bro your comment bot situatuion is INSANE.

A lot of people got into the business using low interest rates and only paying interest on the note and not the principal and now that the interest rates are higher, the numbers don’t work out.

The market is a bubble waiting to burst. It is being driven by tech stocks, but I have seen manufacturing stocks do the same.

Berkshires management (I shall use this term, as I think that there a total infusion of Buffeconomics in the organization, and it will live on past The Man) simply likes to have some cash for when the market overreacts - e.g., INTC going down 60% in 2024 - and as well adjust the cash level up as the market gets frothier. Does that mean they think it is more likely that there will be a correction of some certain amount than a year ago? Absolutely, but that is just the common sense of understanding that something from a higher point can fall further than something from a lower point. My own investment philosophy is pretty much to have my house with no note, as this is the baseline expense in life, keep my non-IRA assets in low-income instruments, which coincidentally includes BRK.B (it pays no dividend), but also stocks that are beaten down (e.g., INTC), or new tech, that also throw off no income (i.e., by the time they throw off income, they will be ripe for a long-term capital-gain sale). I also for some of my IRA assets to throw off income, but I also use the IRA to do a lot of trading, so that I have no income issues with that.

Buffet is a joke... All that money and people hate him !!

Strong buy

Your comments are full of scammers

Honestly, this concerns me and has left me uneasy. Especially this potential depression, no more a recession. I'm unsure about my $220k account strategy, considering the uncertainty of this whole recession mostly.

I think he is a Keynesian.

Mister lisp.

Consumer sentiment is meaningless since everybody who did not buy a house when money was almost free in 2020 is bitching and moaning about prices when it is their own damn fault. Likewise Florida has always been a steam bath on top of a swamp and why anybody expected it to change, when prices fell like a rock in 2008, when they had way fewer hurricanes, flooding and now social problems is beyond credulity. My home in Preston Hollow Dallas keeps going up and up like the stock market. The big difference is you cannot eat or live in a share of somebody else's company.

There is not a shortage of housing. There is a suppression in the available numbers. What a joke

It only looks like a price increase, because the value of the dollar has dropped so much. Imagine if the dollar was worth, one cent. How many would you need to buy a home today.

That was a lot of words to say nothing. Quick Recap: Housing prices will continue to rise as there is a scarcity of inventory in preferred locations. Housing prices will peak when reach or exceed 45% of gross income. That's time to sell high and chase the empty houses vacated by those moving on up by buying a house like yours. The housing market has figured out how to maintain unaffordable high prices and speculator company excess profits. In short, like so many industries they have consolidated the players with mergers and takeovers to the point they don't compete on price anymore. A flooded market of excess inventory will not drive down housing prices because maintaining high prices offsets much of the cost of holding unsold homes. "W" showed the impact of interest rates. Even at rates less than 1%, people were not buying because there was no excess wealth to move up in the World. This was due in large part to the dimwitted Republican Economic Policy. That is, the more wealth you squirrel away in the top 5%, the less wealth for the 95% to drive the economy. This is why Republican Administrations always end in recession, and Democratic Administrations always rebuild to a growth economy.

In many places like Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Tampa, Orlando, etc., inventory is high, many websites showing that and many articles...facts!!

10 minutes to say the experts say "I don't know"? We all know the market will cool off (correct) sometime in the future. The question is when?

There's a big difference between owner and the house and owner house.If you have a mortgage you don't own the house

I couldnt _ucking care less than I do right now which is nothing.

CALIFORNIANS DESTROYED VEGAS

The FED is going to continue to pump the money supply, lower rates and lie about inflation. Trump will be in their corner unless the thieves in some state governments rig their results again and we get the communist. My expectation is much higher prices for real assets and commodities. Where is all the new money going to go? Housing based on devalued dollars is not at all time highs. Values are actually lower than 20 or 30 years ago when adjusted for the amount of money in circulation.

Yes, but that is measured in dollars, which holds much less value now

Hide it under your mattress & stuff your pillow Warren😂

Florida, GOP showcase for running a state ? First Florida, then the whole country ? Trickle down economy ? Relaxed laws for companies, stricts laws for citizens ? But, but : there are no illegals, so everything should be fine, isn't it ?

No one can afford a house and insurance companys can't afford to cover them. Whats coming will make 2008 look like a boom.

The bubble will continue and we are melting up...then it will crash... Warren Buffett is horrible at market timing...

Property insurance prices and availability will now control the housing market. Shortly, the insurance premium will exceed that cost of the principal, interest and taxes combined!

Nathan Rothchild broke the bank of endland..(g) back in late middle 1790's buy doig just that..exit stage left and took it all...investors believed he was selling because he knew something..he did..he knew when to buy it all back@ super cheap again after investors sold out

What is the purpose of holding so much cash or equities when they are not helpful in feeding poor people or of any use to even its owners. Every single unit of money should be essentially useful to human being otherwise it is just an accounting entry having no benefit to humanity

These comments are so full of crap. It all sounds like fake ars AI or shallow gold diggers.

Follow Warren to the buffet counter and you will find a feast waiting for you.

Oh no, another real estate fear mongering video. That's all you people do for the last year. Fear-mongering, fear-mongering, fear mongering! Based on whatever suppositions you can conjure up.

People with money are moving in........

Bro doesn't know what he is talking about.

This professor has absolutely no credibility for as far as I’m concerned he’s collected data and that’s all he’s done . he thinks Janet Yellen is doing a great job and that central banks are just a wonderful system. You can see the angle of his head. He is actually clueless.

Real estate lender 40+ years. To me the question is whether there is more pent-up DEMAND or SUPPLY. If demand, once interest rates fall, the market may gradually heat up even more and support higher prices - for a while at least..... If supply, and if people suddenly start realizing they can now sell, there could be a rush for the exits and a significant drop in prices. During 2002-2006, we saw a feeding frenzy with real estate - speculation, house flipping, bidding wars, and let's just say "pushing the envelope" by just about anyone tied to real estate, all of which caused supply to more or less 'evaporate.' People would come to me at the bank who literally seemed desperate to buy ANYTHING (real estate) and asking if I knew of anything for sale, so much so that I began keeping a list of buyers and sellers - except there were no sellers on it... What I believe drove that market more than anything else was the almost complete relaxation of lending standards, so that the majority of borrowers (buyers) didn't qualify and should not have been able to buy, which meant a huge portion of the demand was artificial and unsustainable. People were so blinded by the chance to make money, they overborrowed and depleted their cash to get as much into real estate they could so they wouldn't miss out - and left themselves too little disposable income and cash poor. By late 2005 and early 2006, the number of cash-strapped property owners exploded and sellers started to appear. We had suspicions as early as August 2005 but by spring 2006, it was clear that property values (and monthly payments on the accompanying loans) had far outrun peoples' ability to repay and the party was ending. Seemingly overnight, the number of sellers multiplied and buyers vanished. Following the crash, lending standards were restored and remain to this day, so the demand we have now is comparatively "healthy" and should provide a sort of buffer against a sudden crash if there is a downturn in prices.

I'm not sure if im am a bit of a tiny little cycle crippled ass veteran

ALL EYES ON BUFFETT: Buffett prepares for the perfect storm. See's candy is the best!

It is difficult to make exact projections for the housing market as it is still unclear how quickly or to what degree the Federal Reserve will reduce inflation and borrowing costs without having a substantial negative impact on demand from consumers for anything from houses to cars.

Not enough inventory...

I've sold every stock I have after this year's 42% return. I've never had a year under 25%, but this year has been monstrous. No way this is holding up. I'm doing the exact same thing, waiting for opportunities to buy.

You folks are high - the 2008 CRASH was DIRECTLY tied to MASSIVE INVESTMENT BANK FAILURES, CREDIT DEFAULT SWAPS being called in on an unheard of scale and the insurance companies backstopping the whole house cards more or less on the brink of imminent & immediate failure - thank you AIG for backing trillions of dollars in worthless home loans. ALL this was due to the thousands of home owners that were unable to pay their non-sense mortgages.. there were millions of “no credit check home loans” were failing like dominos on a game board. The CASE SCHILLER housing index of home price values you talk about was 100% useless in ID-ing ANY of this - what that index offered was ALL the wrong reasons, at the wrong time and anything but the real truth.. … this video is just more KZbin BS…

The advocates of public control cannot do without inflation. They need it in order to finance their policy of reckless spending and of lavishly subsidizing and bribing the voters. Ludwig von Mises

For all of you who never studied the Depression, it was severe tightening of liquidity and stupid tariffs. If those mistakes aren't repeated, not any likelihood of a depression. Even subprime stupidity did not produce a depression. The Fed knew to insure liquidity.
