The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" 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 get $40.5 billion April 2021-April 2026.

What do you get? (lol)"

Let's assume the dates you cherry picked are correct farmer Adrian.

Now comes the hard part, divide 40 billion by 5, do you get 8 billion a year?

Can a brkville loyal cultista agree that 12 BILLION of buybacks in a 1/4 and two weeks at higher prices is substantially and materially MORE THAN 8 billion a year at lower prices?

When does the Circus visit Vegas again, I want, inside info, like the aggressive buyers had in OCT.

Let me ask you this Kreskin, in your opinion, IF brkb bought back 2 billion in the 1/4, and reported those numbers, would brkb be up today?

IF you know that brk continued to pay up threw out OCT, no bet, YOU, have a huge edge. :)
