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.

for those who are following this thread. brkb is up 8 in the early going, what luck. So far, those who are long the calls have done very little profit taking. They either believe the stock will close around 550 today, or, they might plan on taking delivery of 1-1.5 million shares.

The tell for me was the 525 calls, there are still 8300 outstanding, the buy timing was brilliant, I guess. The 515 and 520 calls did great as well. Betting that brkb will rise 10 % in 30-45 days is a long shot but the call buyers, got very lucky, I guess.

The volume in the common will be VERY interesting today, 6 million plus? Will the options trade? Stay tuned.
