The Time Value of Money
In 1965, Warren Buffett acquired control of a New England textile business called Berkshire Hathaway for about $10 a share. Today the stock sells for around $135,000 a share and Mr. Buffett is the second richest person in America. The stock has never paid a dividend. How does this amazing success fit the theory that the value of a stock is based on the present value of the expected future stream of dividends? Visit www.berkshirehathaway.com and get familiar with the company. Tell me what you think the future holds for the company. In an age of hi-tech why did he recently buy the Burlington Northern Railroad for $44 billion? How will the company fare after his inevitable departure?
