CAPS Rating:

Registered closed-end, diversified management investment company seeking to produce long-term capital appreciation through investment in common stocks and high current income through investments in income producing securities.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

38% of the holdings are Berkshire. It's trading at a 25% discount to Nav. Where else can you buy Berkshire Hathaway for a 25% discount?

Where else can you buy Berkshire Hathaway for a 25% discount? I think by now enough of the Hedge funds are out of it that it should hold up pretty well with the market. How well the market holds up over the next few weeks is a bigger question ...but this is a great fund if you have a few years time horizon. It's a GREAT long term play if you are a value investor and are looking to do a little low risk bottom feeding. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!
