I'm going to get over there a read that.. Bill i like this quote : Buffett repeated his preference for buying whole companies rather than stocks, and took a sideswipe at the confused state of stock investing in the U.S. today. "Anyone who says you should be in 'growth' or 'value' (stocks) doesn't understand investing," said Buffett. "I cringe when I hear it; it just doesn't make any sense". Growth is a natural result of value, said Buffett, who plans to stick with his tried and tested method of buying companies with distinct advantages over competitors -- what he calls a "moat" to protect them -- and watching the value in the businesses convert itself into growth over time.
