"It's too late to sell," Mike Holland told CNBC.

The chairman of Holland and Co. sees the bears going away by this summer, making this the ideal time to be buying.

"Warren Buffett told us yesterday there's a lot of opportunities in the fixed-income markets," he said.  ""I think that he's also buying stocks right now, even though he says they're just OK."

Holland has his eye on Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway [BRK  Loading...      ()   ], as well as blue chips General Electric [GE  Loading...      ()   ] and Microsoft [MSFT  Loading...      ()   ].

General Electric is the parent company of CNBC.com.

He sees big companies positioning themselves to make money in finding solutions to the problems that currently plague the markets and the economy.

"Berkshire Hathaway, here he [Buffett] goes into the municipal bond market," he said.

Holland believes such moves have the support of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke.

"He's actually looking for the private marketplace to take care of the problems, rather than the government," he said.
