If you are new to the share price of Berkshire Hathaway, do take note that there is no typo in the blog title. The Berkshire A Share was last traded at US$201,227 on last Friday (which is more than SGD250,000).

In fact, I think it might not be a surprise to many as this most expensive share in the world is from  the Value Investing guru, Warren Buffett. The share price doubled in just short 8 years (it crosses the US$100,000 barrier in 2006). To go even earlier, the share price crosses US$100 in May 1977 (37 years ago). The key is, the company has returned 22.6 per cent per year compounded since then.

Not sure how many Singaporean managed to get a hand to this gem but for those who did, I am sure they are smiling even in their sleep ;-)

Cheers!
