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.

In view of the material write downs brk has already taken in this huge error, if brk sold the entire block for say 24, what is the remaining tax loss brk would realize from the sale? I suspect the loss would offset further gains taken in apple, bac, etc in 2026.

Obviously, the opportunity cost of buying khc over brkb is in the tens of billions. Jim, as you well know I'm not back seat driving. The opportunity cost of buying ibm and khc over brk were other moves I complained about, vigorously, in real time.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.:}:}

Where is the unstable genius, happy healthy new year-old bud, it isn't easy keeping friends for decades.

ucmtsu,no way.
