I thought the question was interesting because it showed that Miller was clearly thinking about the industry, which is confirmed by his comments today. I also thought it was interesting because Warren and Charlie absolutely refused to bite. They acted like they hadn't thought about the industry at all.
Well, probably not. Berkshire has always avoided uncertainty/volitility, and their outlook is much longer range. I don't think Miller is looking that far out and sees a mid-term bargain now.
