Good 'ol Berkshire Hathaway Class A shares.
Looks like BRK.A is at a potential reversal zone, and this could be a good chance to either a) Short until desired targets or b) Wait for support and signs of reversal at the 23.6%, 38.2% or 50%. If we do indeed reverse at this zone, this will be our wave 4 correction yielding an extended wave 5 afterward.
According to Elliot Wave theory if a third wave fails to make it past 1.618x of the initial wave 1, you can expect an extended wave 5 which will have targets of 1.0x, 1.618x or 2.618x of wave 1 to 3 projected from the wave 4 bottom. This count is invalidated if we close above $330,000 on the M1 interval.
The R:R on this position would be about 1:3.5
A brief recap of BRK.A drops:
3/1973 - 1/1975 - 59.1% drop (S&P lost 44%) - US economy in recession resulting from oil crisis and fallout from Breton Woods Agreement.
10/1987 - 10/1987 - 37.1% drop (S&P lost 34%) - Black Monday Stock crash.
6/1998 - 3/2000 - 48.9% drop (S&P gained 27%) - Just before dot-com bubble burst.
9/2008 - 3/2009 - 50.7% drop - The darkest days of the great financial crisis.
S/L: $330,000
Entry: $296,000
Target 1: 23.6% / $258,570
Target 2: 38.2% / $223,051

"If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs...
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting...
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim...
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you...
Yours is the Earth and everything that is in it."
