In fact BRK.A closed down -$4200 per share. Guess people who can afford that know something all of the little guys don’t know.
What is the percentage drop. Raw numbers don’t matter when you don’t know the going price.
Since Berkshire H is a conglomerate holding company it is better to look at who “owns” a “share” valued that reduced amount. The “loss” is 1.60% of the value of one share of BRK.A. Currently valued at $258,700 per share.
Representing the portfolio of wholly owned companies (and high % owned others): GEICO, Duracell, Dairy Queen, BNSF(Burlington Northern Railroads-and 40% of Amtrak railway use), Lubrizol, Fruit of the Loom, Helzberg Diamonds, Long & Foster, FlightSafety International, Pampered Chef, Forest River & NetJets (100%), 38.6% of Pilot Flying J &Kraft Heinz Company (26.7%), American Express (17.6%), Wells Fargo (9.9%), Coca-Cola Company (9.32%),Bank of America (6.8%), Apple (5.22%). The less than 100% owned are not in BRK.A (last i checked).
Sort of like looking up Roche— the Swiss owned family owned mega firm. In the case of Roche one can only buy, in the US, U.S.-dollar denominated American Depositary Receipt (“ADR”) on the OTCQX International Exchange. Not on the SIX Swiss exchange. Many years ago (20) 1 ADR for Roche traded at 85K USD per “share”.
