It has been some time since my last post. Last weekend, Warren Buffett released his annual letter to shareholders for the 2008 performance of Berkshire. Thought I would do a quick summary here.
The start of the letter shows a comparison of Berkshire versus the S&P. Since 1965, the per-share book value of Berkshire has only gone down twice (on an annual basis). 2001 saw a 6.2% drop while 2008 saw a 9.6% drop. The book value has risen from $19 to $70,530, or 20.3% compounded annually. $2000 invested with Berkshire in 1965 would have grown to almost $7 million today.
