Reading Time: 2 minutes Or in bubble territory. Personally I think so. I think this is a bit like the AI right now. I think compared to tennis, pickleball is more social (for social interactions, chatting), but less sports. Once a friend joked pickleball is not a sports – which my 13 year old disagrees, note she is in
Reading Time: < 1 minute Not too long ago, I noticed Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Loads Up On 3 Homebuilders. And recently, I noticed he sold all of the DR Horton stocks.

Reading Time: < 1 minute I don’t have any positions. Note IPO usually stands for “it’s probably overpriced” – this is Warren Buffett’s words, not mine.
