Warren Buffett splashes the cash

Warren Buffett… is probably the worlds greatest investor, certainly to me anyhow. I can’t get enough of this guy.

What is he up to now? He has invested in a Canadian lender (non-bank), Home Capital Group.

Through his Berkshire Hathaway Group Warren Buffet has invested $1.51 billion. That’s a huge amount to invest but to Buffett it will only make a small dent in in his investment vehicle reported to be valued at $96.5 billion.

I have to admit, I know very little about Home Capital Group – so would I invest £1.51 billion… guess I’d have to earn it first and that’s unlikely to happen any time soon. Let’s see where this one goes.
