BUFFET'S BET AGAINST THE DOLLAR CONTINUES.....no matter what

Says Bloomberg:

"Buffett, who spoke yesterday to the thousands of admirers and shareholders who gather each year to hear his investing advice, said Berkshire continued to bet against the U.S. dollar with more than $21 billion of foreign currency contracts. The wager cost the insurance and investment company about $310 million in the first quarter as the dollar strengthened."
