"Still, now seems like an inopportune moment to chase Berkshire stock. It looks richly valued relative to its history, and shows little sign that investors are worried the company will lose some of its magic without Buffett at the helm. The Class A shares trade for 1.7 times book value, their highest ratio since 2007, and for 25 times projected 2025 earnings—a larger-than-usual premium to the S&P 500, which fetches about 20 times. What’s more, analysts see little earnings growth this year or next."
Hindsight being what it is, that was in fact a nice time to sell/lighten up, total return of the B's till today was 4.92% and if you swapped for the SPY, that total return was 39.21%.
Of course I did nothing on this...
