TMAC: Thanks for that update. If memory serves, there was a spate of publicity when Berkshire Hathaway threatened to breach the $10,000 price point on the NYSE. Seemingly, no computer programmer had ever imagined a stock selling at that stratospheric level, and the NYSE reportedly scrambled to readjust the software. As an aside, with Berkshire Hathaway Class A shares presently changing hands at $69,400, that $10,000 per share price now can be reckoned as a singular bargain.
