Benkea, The problem with that idea is that the shares were A shares but the selling pressure seems to be coming for B shares. I personally think it has to do with GenRe shareholders perhaps some who had up to 1 year to liquidate their shares or something to that effect. Some funds require all stock to be S&P 500 and others may require a dividend paying stock. BUT, it would have been absurd to give themselves NO time for liquidating shares that trade so thinly. As with you, I have reallocated MOST of my assets into BRK B and will do more if the stock price continues to decline. later, leroyt
