I bought this at $500 last year because of Motley Fool's promoting it as "the next Berkshire". Well, quite a disaster. It's down 25%. I notice now they don't mention it anymore on any of their pick services.

I have to hope it does well now, but it will take great performance just to break even from here.

MF Inside Value made MKL an official pick earlier this year and still is an advocate for this stock. I predict five years from now you will be happy with your annulized returns for this stock. Sit tight, the market's mood is the problem but it gives MKL a great chance to deploy its float.
