A Wall Street legend just joined the $US1 trillion club

Congratulations to the Oracle of Omaha.

"Berkshire Hathaway has become the first US company outside of the tech sector to surpass $US1 trillion ($1.5 trillion) in market value."

“Berkshire has done it the slower, but more sure, way,” said Steve Check, the founder and chief investment officer of Check Capital Management. His firm has about $US2 billion in assets under management, with Berkshire as their largest holding. “It’s harder to make money the old-fashioned way.”
