This "junior Berkshire" trades at an exact fraction of Berkshire A shares so that if you missed Berkshire the first time around you can still buy a share for around $3000. Granted, this stock is no longer capable of growing twenty percent per year, but even the seven percent promised is not bad, coupled with undervaluation at present and Buffett's management. As a bonus, if you buy it, you get the annual report for free!
