17. I don't think that's what Buffet is saying.

BRK doesn't invest in equities per se. They buy controlling interests in companies they think have fundamental value but can deliver better results with better management. He sees through the short-term nonsense (realizing that some of this "short-term nonsense" has been with us for 15+ years now.)

Buffet is not looking to "buy the dip", per se. However, if there is an equity or debt crash that places some fundamentally good businesses into great stress, THAT is the kind of oportunity BRK would jump on.
