How History Repeats itself

Hi

Stock Market Crashes 1929 1987 2008

For all you market watchers, the Dow Jones index in 1960 was approx 700 points and it took until end 1982 to pass through the 1,000 point mark and stay above that mark.

At the start of January 1983 the Dow was 1,027 points, at close on the 9th October 2007 it had risen to 14,164 points.

Finally if in 1962 you purchased 1,000 Berkshire Hathaway ‘A’ shares you would have paid around $7 - 8.00 per share ($7,-8,000.00), today those shares are trading around $96,460.00 per share ($96,460,000.00) not a bad profit, their share price dropped the other night by $3,600.00 per share (your loss $3,600,000.00), Berkshire Hathaway is Warren Buffett’s company.
