Buffett’s actions don’t bode well for the market, but a falling market has benefits for investors. Investors follow Warren Buffett’s moves closely. He has earned the respect of the investing community for his wisdom, common sense, and — most importantly — a track record of beating the market. It’s exciting when he makes big moves, especially when they signal good times ahead. But Buffett is a realist, and he and his team at Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) (BRK.B 0.71%) take action based on the way the winds are blowing, not where they want them to be. Berkshire Hathaway released its most…
