always think of Buffett's quip saying that he hoped the stock did not rise too much when he died.

Do you think Buffett may have bought Allegheny mainly for the people running it? it did not seem to be that great a bargain. No other bids, pretty high price, overlap of business, etc. just musing.

noticed WTM is also selling their pet insurance. competition worse, high valuations?

not sure if discussed, but finished Tehran and found it very good.

Transatlantic Holdings, Inc. was a buyout target by BRK in 2012, but was trumped by Y after BRK refused to raise its offer( does it ever). Buffett is trying to get the whole enchilada 10 years later (unless someone offers more, in which case doubt he would raise his bid).

remember Y had huge position relative to their portfolio at one time in BNSF.

could he be beefing up on people to help run insurance at BRK along with the company itself?

Seems like lot of insider selling although it appears to be mainly ex Crestmark officers, possibly diversifying?
