Hi William,

I don't think BRK's action is meaningful. The index funds appear to be selling brk.b after receiving the exchange of shares from GRN. Granted, there was panic selling up to 12/21 because some of the funds had to get out of grn then, but volume is still so heavy that I think the selling wave from the indexers has not abated. Brk tries to go up every am, but is the driven backwards by this selling.

The huge difference between brk/a and b, the spread after 30x is the about 2000 for God's sake, tells me I am right. Unfortunately, I have been wrong a few times, so I no longer offer a guarantee.

If I am right, the selling will stop and brk will jump to at least 75,000, or 2500 b shares quickly. I expect it to have great strength after this incredible wave of new money chasing the tech stocks slows.

Full disclosure:I have a large enough investment in BRK that my opinion is very biased.

The US economy is still making a power move and the global issues will keep inflation tame. The market's already learned that Asia meltdown does not yield a US market melt down. Greenspan's view on speculation tomorrow will be crucial to the next several weeks. This will drive your indicators. He's in a tough spot for sure, one that he created, however.
