Warren Buffett expressed concern over the stock market in a recent interview with CNBC during Berkshire Hathaway 's annual meeting, even going so far as to say that some investors are "gambling" right now. While even renowned investors like Buffett can't predict the future, decades worth of history suggest that he's spot-on. Here's his best advice for what investors should do right now.

During the interview, Buffett reiterated his idea that the stock market is like a church with a casino attached -- one representing slow-and-steady growth and the other, short-term risk-taking. "The casino has gotten very attractive to people," he noted, adding, "that's not investing, it's not speculating, it's gambling."
