    Met Charle Munger in Omaha in the years after Lehman - he said: "Larry, never, ever tell anyone about your problems, 90% of the people really don't care... The other 10% are glad you have them."

    Nvidia - This will go down as one of the most significant downfalls in the history of passive investing. All the monkeys are in one tree. Nearly 8% of everyone's 401K is crammed into $NVDA, with nowhere near the energy infrastructure buildout to support the growth assumptions.

    *BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY RAISES 90 BILLION YEN FROM BOND SALE. Just wow. Buffett is loaded with cash and he's reaching into the margin account (borrowing) in yen. Next 12 months - he's going to buy this puke festival with both hands. Thoughts?
