## Elevator Pitch

- Berkshire Hathaway's large cash mix offers an opportunity for value addition during a market downturn, especially if the dry powder is deployed well.
- The insurance business is thriving, with revenues growing in the double digits and EBIT margins above 25%. The outlook is bright, driven by pricing and volume tailwinds.
- Expansionary manufacturing and servicing PMIs bode well for Berkshire's wholly owned subsidiaries that make up more than half of operating EBIT.
- Valuations are at a premium vs historical median levels, but it may be acceptable given the cash balance advantage and business tailwinds. Relative technicals vs the S&P 500 are bullish.
- Worsening net working capital intensity due to lower benefits payable days in the insurance business is a risk monitorable.
