Haim, don't be silly. Half of BRK's earnings (AT LEAST) are hidden. Unlike the rest of the clowns managing major companies, Buffett likes to SAVE tax money (guess that comes as a result of owning 40% of the company, taking a mere $100k salary, and receiving no options!). We've had long discussions on BRK around here and they are probably considered off topic so I won't go into great detail here. However, you can send me a private message if you want to discuss the silliness of the "sports a P/E of 47 for a mutual fund" statement. PS. The "mutual fund" receives over 70% of its revenues from its wholly owned insurance operations, and employs over 50k full-time employees throughout the dozens of wholly owned subs - both insurance and non-insurance.
