Buffett’s portfolio with his comment

Message

"We show below our common stock investments. With two exceptions, those that had a market value of more than $700 million at the end of 2006 are itemized. We don't itemize the securities referred to, which have a market value of $1.9 billion, because we continue to buy them. I could, of course, tell you their names. But then I would have to kill you

Yes Devesh, no charity here from the master. That is why I have a very differentiated opinion for these greats. I mentioned this elsewhere also that we should respect these individuals for their investing thoughts , their analytical skills and nothing else. 

See Buffet is great for what he has done and not for what he is. We need to remember these things and not mix them up.

Almost all the greats Graham, Buffet, Rogers have had a not too great personal life, their attitude towards anything apart from investing has not been much to make them proud but as they say let us concentrate on their strengths and ignore (not forget) their weakness.

On a positive note at least he is not misleading the public.

I have the same thoughts towards the Indian greats!!!
