This follows a fantastic 18% total return in 2025, with double-digit gains posted in the two years before that as well. Stock investors are making money.
However, investors continue to monitor valuations. To be more specific, the Buffett indicator, a metric from the Oracle of Omaha, might be signaling what's to come.

It's not a good idea to panic, though. History says investors should make this one move.
