I for one am thrilled to be part of this. Keep it as it is. Sanjeev, you're doing grea

Which are the best buys? ???

can someone tell what has happened to berkshire's holdings in the various banks - mtb, wetc. They are not mentioned in his report

Yesterday, the brick dropped it's monthly dividend. It's price dropped like a Brick. Any idea if this is a good buy now? :o

based on this, can someone suggest a net value for a FFH share? ???

Currently offering close to 12% in dividend yield and has the potential to be called by Odyssey for $25 after October 2010. Best case scenario, you get ~$4 in dividends and a ~$7 capital gain by the end of 2010 if they call it asap (64% gain in ~two years). Worst case scenario, you get a 12% dividend indefinitely from a well run and well capitalized company, which is majority owned by Fairfax. It won't be a homerun, but I see it as a very safe bet that offers a good to very good return. Here's a link to the issue prospectus: http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1137048/000090956705001607/t18226e424b5.htm ::) Thanks so much. Good opportunity here

:o For those of us who do not know, why is this share so special?
