The "A" Share trades for almost $300k/share!

Gotta love it when a down day of $17,056 off the share price is only 5.6%!!

The so-called "Baby Berks", or the B shares are considerably more affordable;
$191.66/share
Cheaper than Boeing stock!

Again, it will be interesting to see how this debt paper prices out and what coupon it gathers. If it's Triple A and is 130 Bps above the 30 year Treas, they would something to consider, to be sure.
