Nasdaq Gone Wild

"Dawn's remake of the drama The Talented Mr. Ripley, released last year, was nominated for the Golden Bear in the Berlin Film Festival's main competition;"

"I thought the film was quite good, but it came away empty-handed at the recent Golden Globe Awards."

At the restaurant, Christiana Yeri sat across from Aaron, discussing the film.

Aaron smiled. "Anthony Minghella did a good job. It was only a crime drama to begin with;"

"Eighty million US dollars at the North American box office is already very satisfying. Once it opens overseas, its worldwide box office will definitely break 100 million!"

The Talented Mr. Ripley had only cost 40 million US dollars to make, and director Anthony Minghella was indeed quite capable.

With The English Patient before it and The Talented Mr. Ripley now, he was a remarkable newcomer director!

After dinner, just as the two were about to leave, they ran into Warren Buffett, who had also come to dine.

Over the past few years, Berkshire Hathaway had sold off all of its Disney shares and made a major investment in Dawn stock. Aaron knew that;

Berkshire Hathaway now held quite a lot of Dawn shares as well.

"Oh, Aaron, I heard you've stopped investing in internet companies?"

Aaron Anderson had first used Dawn's America Online shares to acquire CBS, then recently sold off Tianhai Fund's holdings and invested in ExxonMobil;

Not only that, he had sold all of Yahoo's stock and hoarded a massive amount of cash.

Aaron smiled. "I agree with Mr. Buffett's thinking, and the tech bubble is too frightening. Berkshire Hathaway is also holding a huge amount of cash;"

"I'm keeping a batch of cash as well, waiting to invest again in the future!"

Including Asia and other regions, Aaron had accumulated nearly 15 billion US dollars
