BRK.B Defensive after earnings

Long

NYSE:BRK.B   Berkshire Hathaway Inc. New
Seasonal defensive BRK.B has bounced off the 200MA. It fell last week (w/e May 10) despite beating on earnings. There were no guidance issues, but it was caught up in the trade war sell-off, despite being a defensive little affected by this, and by being overbought.

I suggest entry at 208 ($1 below market). We are relying on the rising channel (note the very precise channel touches) to avoid a repeat of Feb-Mar price action, hence the tight stop of 203, just below last week’s low. Targeting 224, the previous ATH gives a 3.2:1 trade.
Trade closed: stop reached:
Wrong, sadly
