    BRK.B is a bit more affordable and mirrors the A's. Fractionally outperformed A off the low / highs of 6 months. But thats just 22% v 21%

    Share price a year ago was under $400K

    Yankee dollar I’d say.

    Those ARE US$ :eek:

    I hold BRK-B but I don't actively follow it. Even those are well over US$300 now.

    I read somewhere recently something about there being an issue (solved) quoting the price of the A shares as it was never anticipated an individual stock would need a 400k something price tag.

    And old man Buffett still issues holding statements BY POST.
    Have a few clients holding in super and its a bugger to confirm the holdings. Now its issued annually or twice a year where you used to have to WRITE to the company to ask.

    When the man says he doesn't invest in technology companies because he doesn't understand them. Now you know what he means :D
