Always enjoy talking Berkshire Hathaway and all things investing with @stig_brodersen. Look forward to seeing everyone headed to Omaha. We’ll have a great weekend celebration of Charlie Munger and his enormous contribution to the investing world and society at large. Rationality.

Being short the stock, my no votes won’t be counted.

Upon his arrival at the pearly gates, Saint Peter informed O.J. Simpson, the best slashing running back of all time, that he needed to answer one question truthfully: “Were you a one-cut back or a two-cut back?”
I’d argue broker/dealers replacing money market mutual funds with their own bank deposits paying minuscule yields to retail accounts as the sweep vehicle in brokerage accounts. Either way you slice it, varying degrees of slime.

Stock repurchases were NOT illegal prior to 1982. Nor did wages stop rising after 1982. Particularly disappointing to see Berkley professor and former Labor Secretary @RBReich turn to dishonesty for what must be the first and only time in his illustrious career. 😄

Happy to talk on tomorrow’s Value After Hours with great friends @Greenbackd and @farnamjake1 live at 1.30pmE/10.30amP. Surely Berkshire’s $167 billion “cash mountain”will come up. The cash position alone equals the 50th largest U.S. market cap or = $AXP. Too much or just right?
Happy sharing the Semper 2023 Annual Letter. Writing it every year gets me outside the box. Love the process and always thrilled to be done! We released the PDF last night. Somehow page 41 was out of order. Perhaps Adobe's hint that 40 pages is enough... semperaugustus.com/clientletter
Out of nowhere Broadcom races past Tesla in the Nasdaq 100. Up 13% YTD, 115% over the last year and 371% over 5 years. Forget the “rebalancing” last year. BROADCOM IS NOW LARGER THAN TESLA BY ACTUAL MARKET CAP. Either Tesla’s out or the Magnificent Seven are now the Elite Eight.

You CAN have an offering, NOT AT THE MARKET, with fewer voting rights, @elonmusk, increasing the voting rights of your and current owners. Berkshire did it in 1996 with B shares. Guessing a required (SEC) prospectus would skip this unusual language from Berkshire’s 1996 page 1.👇

@mouvement33 This is quite a story. Sadly, I'm not surprised. Thank you for sharing it.
The choice by @Fidelity to start charging retail clients $100 commissions may be one of the slimiest things I've seen in a long time. Makes @RobinhoodApp look good in comparison. 🤮🤮🤮
Index funds make up 46% of Fidelity's assets, but only 6% of its revenue (which was $28b last year, about double entire ETF industry). That gap may be one of the reasons they looking to add ETF surcharge on platform, the optics of which may not be worth the money.
In his 1980 shareholder letter, Warren Buffett extols the virtues of share buybacks. If my math is right, 1980 was before 1982. berkshirehathaway.com/letters/1980.h…
Stock buybacks were illegal until Reagan made them legal in 1982. Just about the same time, wages stopped rising for most Americans. Does that sound like a coincidence to you? 🤔
Yikes. He was a cabinet secretary, taught (not sure what) at Harvard and this is absolutely not true - SEC safe harbor rule made them more common though. And the connection to wages? ¯\_(ツ)_/
Stock buybacks were illegal until Reagan made them legal in 1982. Just about the same time, wages stopped rising for most Americans. Does that sound like a coincidence to you? 🤔
Today I learned that Ronald Reagan made buybacks legal in 1982 Now I’m gonna have to re-read The Outsiders and figure out how Henry Singleton avoided jail after buying back 22 million in Teledyne shares during the 1970s bear market

@ChrisBloomstran @elonmusk So cool to time warp and real the duo’s unique warnings to potential B buyers And take an hour at the ‘96 meeting to answer all the partners’ questions. Was a superb solution! Thanks for sharing!
Even though I’m licensed as a broker, when it came time to sell our house ~2 yrs ago, we hired an incredibly sharp, active residential agent at full fee to handle the sale. The disciplined sale process she ran *easily* drove the price up by more than we paid her.
MULTIPLE entities have tried to disrupt the commission-based, co-broked residential real estate transaction model. Rex. Foxton's. Purple Bricks. Zillow Offers. Opendoor. Even Redfin keeps re-making its model into a more and more traditional commission-based brokerage model.…
In the words of the late, great Michael Jackson, I hope this is startin' somethin'. I'm guessing @CliffordAsness, @ChrisBloomstran, @GSpier, @Greenbackd and my other value-tilting friends agree.
@ChrisBloomstran @CharlesMizrahi I learned a lot from him. I watched every video I found and read everything, I got my hands on. His wisdom was simple but profound.
