in a zone of reasonableness

As bulls and bears fight it out over Dow 16,000 and S&P 1,800, and Carl Icahn says he’s cautious on equities (but doesn’t want to predict where stocks will go in the short term), Warren Buffett is sticking to the middle of the road.

He told CBS This Morning:

“I would say that they’re in a zone of reasonableness. Five years ago, I wrote an article for The New York Times that said they were very cheap. And every now and then, you can see that that they’re very overpriced or very underpriced. Most of the time, they’re in an area where maybe they’re a little high, a little low, and nobody really knows exactly. They’re definitely not way overpriced. They’re definitely not underpriced.”
