The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I heard the similar things where some company offers a fund where tech company employees can put their employee stocks in the fund in exchange for a share of the fund. A friend asked my advice about it. My only concern is this fund may consists of many stocks that people would prefer to sell, likely high pe tech stocks.

This ETF has similar problems. It may consist of many highly appreciated stocks, making the fund has very high PE (and if someone contributes their BRK share it will bring down the PE). But are you willing to exchange your BrK with a basket of stocks perhaps made of Tesla etc?
