One of the least understood secrets behind the success of Berkshire Hathaway and its rise from an $8 stock in the 1960s to more than $118,000 per share today, is that Buffett focuses on two value buckets as he put it in a recent shareholder letter. The first bucket consists of the operating businesses in which the company holds a controlling stake and the second of marketable securities such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, et cetera, most of which are held through the insurance subsidiaries. ...

Berkshire Theatre Festival's 80th Mainstage season begins with George Bernard Shaw's 'Candida.' Shaw's thought-provoking 1894 comedy was first performed in Stockbridge 80 years ago during the Berkshire Playhouse's inaugural season. Set in London's East End during the Victorian era, 'Candida' is about the domestic turmoil that ensues when a dashing and sensitive young poet comes between a socially progressive minister and his charismatic wife. Though the play revolves around a classic romantic triangle, the questions it raises about love, fidelity, and the imagination of the artist are as relevant today as ever. ...

Chad Brand submits: Things have not been great lately for Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) shareholders. BRK stock has dropped more than 20% since December and large Buffett holdings in the financial services area such as American Express (AXP) , Wells Fargo (WFC) , Moody's (MCO) , and U.S. Bancorp (USB) are hurting his equity portfolio. Buffett has also taken some heat for publicly bashing the use of derivatives, but privately writing billions in credit default swaps. Despite the recent headwinds, you may have noticed that Buffett is still hitting some home runs. Just this year three Buffett investments have received takeover offers, all at significant premiums of 50% to 80%. What is amazing to me has been the prices offered for some of these companies. For instance, Mars is paying 32 times 2008 earnings for Wrigley (WWY) . Dow Chemical (DOW) just offered a staggering 11.5 times EBITDA for chemical company Rohm and Haas (ROH) . Complete Story » ...
