When a stock ticks up one point and you are long 1000 shares, you have a $1000.00 pretax profit. This is true if it's Berkshire Hathaway or any other stock

Where is the logic in that? If you have $10,000 to play with, you can buy 1000 shares of a $10 stock or 1 share of a $10,000 stock. In the first case a 1 point gain will net you $1,000 (less commission). In the other your net is $1.

Your assumption is flawed...
