  • A Bailout for Berkshire? [View article]
    Regarding the BRK puts on the SP, Buffett knows we are in a long term secular bear market. These secular bears(and bulls) are long term affairs, 15 to 20 years, in duration. Our current secular bear began in 2000 so we are about half way thru it. Between now and 2020 there will be several cyclical bull runs that will return us to or near the old high of 1500. When these puts expire the SP will be in a new secular bull market, repeat bull market, well above 1500. Above 1500 these puts will be worth a lot less than the premium they generated. Remember Buffett takes the long term view of things. He knows all about secular bull and bear markets having invested thru several of them since 1950s.
