HISTORY REPEATS? Buffett’s “Sell-Off Symphony” Mirrors the 1987 Crash Playbook

OMAHA, NE — As Berkshire Hathaway dumps a staggering $90 billion in stock in just two quarters—shedding Apple, Bank of America, and others—historians are drawing eerie parallels to a forgotten moment in 1987.

In June of that year, Warren Buffett was quietly hoarding $3 billion in cash (a fortune then) while the market euphorically climbed. The whispers of “Buffett is losing his touch” grew loud. Then Black Monday hit. Three months later, Berkshire bought Coca-Cola at an 89% discount to its peak.

Now, with Berkshire’s cash pile at $276 billion—a record 27% of total assets—the pattern is undeniable. “It’s the same song, different century,” says financial historian Dr. Elena Marchetti. “In 1987, he sold before the crash. In 2024, he’s selling before… what?”

The twist? Today’s market is more complex, with AI valuations and global debt. But history’s whisper is loud: when the Sage of Omaha sells, he’s not worried about today’s news. He’s seeing a 1987-shaped storm on the horizon.

Investors: Is this a repeat of Buffett’s greatest call—or a bust?
