DCG Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 I bought a small amount of Amazon at around $190/share, when everyone was saying how overpriced it was then. At current prices though, it seems like either Amazon is over valued or Berkshire is greatly undervalued. Maybe a combination of both.
Guest longinvestor Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 From an earlier report, http://www.semperaugustus.com/2016BRK.aspx Sales * Net Profit * Market Cap Facebook $17.9 B $3.6 B $305 B Amazon $107 B $ 0.6 $ 325 B Netflix $6.7 B $ 0.12 $ 51B Google/Alphabet $75B $18.5 $ 534 Total (fang) $206 B $22.9 B $1,215 B Berkshire Hathaway $220 B $25 B $325 B An interesting extension of this analysis would be to add up the earnings & sales of these four companies for their entire duration of existence (1997?) and compare that with BRK for that same period. Of course, investment is all about the future. Who cares about the past, ha!
