Oops, facts get in the way again.

Warren Buffett is beating the market again - Apr. 25, 2016

Both classes of Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway -- the only for the 1% A shares (BRKA)(do you have $219,000 in loose change in your couch cushions?) and the more affordable B shares (BRKB) -- are up nearly 11% this year, compared to just a 2% gain for the S&P 500.
While 2015 was a down year for Buffett...the same applied to 'the market.'

In fact, you have to go back a long way to find where he did worse than the S&P 500.

Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has year to forget - Dec. 21, 2015

The last time that Berkshire had a down year and underperformed the S&P 500 was all the way back in 1999.
