Why it matters

The FED's rate hike cycle and high inflation increase valuation risk across the market, with the CAPE ratio suggesting the stock market is overvalued. Berkshire Hathaway's stability is attributed to its diversified operations and a large cash balance, which provides ballast during market turbulence.
