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.

2) Perhaps past valuation bands need to be revisited given WEB's historically aggressive buy back of shares in the past 24 months or more?

I think there may be something to this. But I think it's more at the low end...perhaps the "spongy floor" we saw for a few years during the 1.2 times book" buyback rule?

But the current price movement doesn't seem to be very Berkshire specific...other than a blip around year end, Berkshire's price trajectory has tracked that of the average S&P 500 firm almost perfectly in the last 10.5 months. Party like it's 1999?
