If you like eating hamburgers, why complain when they are suddenly 50% cheaper for a period of time?

This should only be a concern to you when you are on the sell side. I am on the buy side. I will be on the buy side for at least another 20 years.

Mr Buffett can explain that much better than I. You may want to dig in his BRK reports a little.
