  • Three financial names—Berkshire Hathaway, JPMorgan Chase and BlackRock—were highlighted as buy-on-dip candidates if another 10% market correction hits.
  • The call rests on persistent volatility, rising geopolitical tensions, swelling government deficits, higher consumer prices and an elevated CAPE ratio that could leave equities vulnerable.
  • Berkshire brings a $397 billion cash pile and nearly $24 billion in free cash flow, positioning it to deploy capital if valuations reset.
  • JPMorgan adds scale with more than $3.7 trillion in assets, $16.5 billion in quarterly net income and a $1.5 trillion liquidity buffer for a downturn.
  • BlackRock offers fee resilience through its nearly $14 trillion AUM platform after $130 billion of first-quarter inflows and 27% revenue growth to $6.7 billion.
