Well, this isn’t really that big of a problem. Just let the price overflow. That should make it easier for them to just split the stock next time they get ther

With all the weird structures of stock lending and synthetics going around, I believe it's been extremely valuable for Buffet to keep it as it is for all these years.

  Can you explain? I nhought a stock split just multplied at stock counts after a certain date; seems straight forward.

    You’re correct, the GP’s entire post is wrong, see my sibling comment to your post.

  There are no exchange traded options on BRK.A, lending shares to be shorted gives you interest on the total $ value, not the number of shares. Neither of these are the reason for not splitting.

    Aren't options contracts standardized on 100 shares? That would definitely make a difference.
