Richard: "1) BRK has historically rallied into earnings (due this coming weekend). It doesn't seem to be this time, which could perhaps be an indicator of a turning point." Yes, and maybe we'll be spared the "hangover effect" afterwards. "2) Does BRK still own all those oil futures that he bought a while back? Do we have any information?" I thought they expired in 1999?

Hi, just got some BRK.B (from an In-Law). Was wondering if anyone could explain to me why anyone would hold on to this stock. It has been on a downward slide for over a year now and has lost over 50% since last March. I know it's said "Don't bet against Buffet", but where do you draw the line and say enough is enough? Is there some reason I should hold on to this that I don't see? If so please tell me about it or where to fine the DD to convince me to hold for better times. TIA Shroom
