Berkshire Hathaway Loads Up On Financial Stocks

  1. BUFFET was once quoted as describing his trading style a slothful. In other words its a marathon not a 100 yard sprint.
    His stock is up over 2800% since inception.
    Many years ago i belonged to a country club that has the PGA
    tournament in Jan. I have birdied a hole where Tiger Woods had
    a bogie. Therefore i,m a better golfer than Woods.
    Thats the same analogy

    :D cheers

  2. MSFT is up 20,000% from IPO but does that mean you want to buy it or that it will continue to outperform?

  3. Your analogy is very weak.

    It does not compare to hard numbers I have and the hard numbers BRK.A had this year. Most currently BRK.A is a sideways moving behemoth and you ask what has it done for anyone lately?

  6. I think its flat. An 8% yield on world's greatest stock? WOW!


    Hate to put it in your face, I will make an 8% return in my trading account this month. I was just figuring it out.

  7. I am just not comparing myself with Warren Buffet, I am showing how overblown his hype and media machine is. You don't know what kind of PR firms are working behind his image. These people hire PR firms and publicize a whole lot to you and me.

    The stock itself represents a picture, sometimes distorted, but it tells a good story behind it. BRK.A is flat sideways this year. Why?
