Totally right, Buffet is buying because he thinks its cheap, not to support the system.



But he did help out Goldman Sachs in its time of need. That would be helping the system (and himself).

he wasn't doing charity, more like he bought it at that time thinking it was cheap, why do u think he went on saying later if the gov't doesn't bail out the banks/ economy whatever the economy will crumble or something ... during that time he was taking a something like over 30% loss or sorts

Buffett bought BN because he has too much cash and he knows that cash is going down the tubes.
BN is a decent inflation hedge...

Deflation is the much larger threat, and maybe for many years. Bond markets have it right.

Gold will crash soon. Very soon.
