I'm betting the market is about to tank, otherwise why buy a huge stake in a beer company.

Any thoughts?

1. Why? Do sales of equine urine spike during bear markets?

2. Well, I'm figuring that he knows something we don't.

People drink when they are depressed and in times of national economic depression alcohol sales rise sharply.

The market is about to crash in a big way and Buffet wants to make even more cash of the misery of others.

7. I've spent alot of time around horses but never tasted it horse piss.

I have downed alot of Budweiser in my day and ice cold it ain't bad but don't let it get warm and don't drink too much of it or your head will be the size of a hot air baloon the next morning.

8. Widely considered about the most....

...recession-proof equities to own.

10. What about alcohol makers, like Seagrams, etc?

Are mixed drinks and shots considered too pricey for most people, so I should stick with beer stock?

[dxdem]

12. Personally,

if I was going out tommorow to buy, I'd stick with beer. Opiate of the masses and what not.

11. The public needs to have something to drown their sorrows with...

when their stock and life savings go down the toilet. Can't drink Arsenic - that would be too much like "Death with Dignity"...

Might as well drink arsenic light.
