I vaguely wondered late last week if there would be an increased interest in shorting BRK, as it was at new highs and with the equity assets marked-to-market, the Monday headlines would be all about BRK's "losses" 2025Q1 compared with prior year.

Now, I'm guessing Monday headlines will be different, and a sugar rush is coming

(Not that it matters in the long run if a gust of wind throws briefly throws off the weighing machine)

misc other factoids:

- when Greg alluded to one of the four Oregon 2020 fires NOT being PacificCorps fault, he was referring to the Beachie Creek/Santiam fire. That implicitly means that they have surrendered any arguments that the other three had another cause than their energized lines
( perplexity.ai - Greg abel has asserted that on )

- Tim "Apple" aka Tim Cook was in the audience, on the main floor behind the board. I can't imagine a busier man, especially now. That he would sit in the fourth row of an auditorium all morning to listen to someone else talk business is a testament to a really first-caliber CEO.

- our Chairman had See's fudge with him on stage this year, not the peanut brittle (I wouldn't want my 94 yo relative eating peanut brittle either)
