Warren Buffett's Elephant Gun Hits Heinz

After alluding to a $20 billion deal for nearly a year, Warren Buffett of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A_) aimed his "elephant gun" at H.J. Heinz (HNZ_) in one of his largest acquisitions ever.


Berkshire on Thursday announced a deal to buy the iconic ketchup maker for $72.50 a share in cash, in a transaction that values the company at about $28 billion when counting debt.

Looked at it but never bought it. Too boring. I guess that is what Buffet likes. They do generate tons of FCF.
