The stock speaks for itself. The firm is a leader and is headed by one of the brightest Wall Street and business minds of my generation. Financials are solid, leadership is trustworhty and respected. The firm has growth plans that are beyond our traditional concept of long term. There is risk but the name is a hedge in itself against such risk.

The ratio on brk-a and brk-b is totally off. Should be 200:1 not 30:1

The market seems to have forgotten everything about Berkshire that is important. Buffets bet on GS has already earned billions. GE is not in the money yet, but the point to remember is that Berkshire is still getting a hefty 10% on its loan, no losses here. Finally the insurance coverage on the ovarall market will almost certainly prove very profitable. The only weakness is in Berkshires's investment in building related businesses, and this represents only a small percentage of the company's portfolio

A short-term contrarian pick. I see the market continuing to get ahead of itself on emotion over the next quarter or so. BRK-A stockholders are investors, so they won't be moving the stock so irrationally. Net result is BRK-A stays fairly valued while S&P gets overvalued.

I don't need to say much about Buffett skills. He made several bets last year in the recovery, getting sweet deals in companies like GS, GE. He also messed in what he had called "financial weapon of mass destruction" selling index puts for the S&P500. As we are seeing the end of the recession, we can say that in the long term his bets were right. However if we look at the stock price we can say that they are not reflected there yet..

If you can't afford it for your real portfolio you might as well put in your CAPS ("wish I could afford it") portfolio.

super cats and Ajit Jain. Buffett will cede the reins like Graham before him. As Obiwan said "strike me down now and I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine".
Investment equivalent of The Force is BRK. B or A depending on size of your pocket book.

I figure CAPS is the only way I would ever pay this much per share for one stock, so what the heck.
Buffet is overated as a stock picker. Even more so as an economist. Why he supports Big Government Politicians is beyond me. Nice guy though. I just don't get why he feels we don't pay enough in taxes and the government is the answer to everything. Same with Sorros for that matter. Maybe that is why they are filthy stinkin rich and I am typing comments on "CAPS". They are smarter than I am.
