leroyt: "The problem with that idea is that the shares were A shares but the selling pressure seems to be coming for B shares." Well as stupid as it would be (seeing there is such a huge discount now), they could have converted many to B's to easier liquidate. This process is not a one-day deal, so they could have been converted before we started tanking. "I have reallocated MOST my assets into BRK B and will do more if the stock price continues to decline." Yep, it just gets easier and easier to trade assets as we drop. I actively manage my portfolio which keeps me off the golf course as much as I would like. After the asset re-allocation is complete, I can just IGNORE the market and go play golf. That is the way it should be anyway.
