Here is an interesting interview from Morningstar, just after the meeting took place this weekend.

Basically:

  • No real worries on the derivatives side.. they will hold to maturity, therefore should not be a concern.
  • Very interesting to note that Berkshire has put a lot of money to work and that they are looking for more opportunities - as always.
  • Start of first ‘new’ business for Berkshire with Muni Bond portfolio.
  • Buffett’s return expectation for Berkshire’s public equities is around 10% - as for Berkshire - simply due to the size of the Berkshire conglomerate.
  • Upcoming trip to Europe to try and look for interesting family run businesses (mainly in Germany) - Berkshire is the ideal partner.

Enjoy!
