Just pulled up a chart of BRK-A for the last 20 years. On June 1st 2005 the price was $83,150.
It closed on Friday at $477, 403 which is 5.75X the price in 2005. Are there special dividends that Berkshire issues or some other compensation to shareholders I'm missing that would make that 5.75X return come close to Apples return?
