LEH

He also tells our Becky Quick that he has been adding recently to one of the two stakes Berkshire Hathaway already has in a pair of financial stocks, American Express (AXP) or Wells Fargo (WFC)although he wouldn't say which. I think it’s American Express, muses Jon Najarian, because I’m seeing twice the options action in Amex than Wells Fargo.

-
AKAM
Akamai Technologi - $15.47
- -5.96%
