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.

" Berkshire Hathaway Inc.’s long-standing common stock repurchase policy permits us to repurchase shares of our Class A and Class B Common Stock at any time we believe the repurchase price is below our intrinsic value, conservatively determined. In the interest of transparency with our leadership transition, we are disclosing that we commenced repurchasing shares of our common stock under this policy on Wednesday, March 4, 2026.

Our repurchase policy does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares. Shares may be repurchased in open-market repurchases or in privately negotiated transactions, including pursuant to trading plans that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing and total amount of stock repurchases will depend on the market prices of our Class A and Class B common shares, market conditions, and other relevant factors. Repurchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. Berkshire does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any disclosures regarding our repurchases, including any suspension or termination of the repurchases, except as may be required by applicable law or regulation (including through the disclosure of repurchase activity in Berkshire’s periodic reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K)."

It seems to me it's very UNbrkish and very UNBuffett for Greg and brk to buy prior to the filings. PLUS, this greenlights direct buys from the Foundations, imo. :)

Uncle Warren reminds me of my ex, it takes a while but eventually he realizes I'm right! ::))
