Warren Buffett and Harley-Davidson

I am quoted in the Omaha World-Herald on Berkshire Hathaway’s $303 million, five year, 15 percent term loan to Harley Davidson in 2009:

“I do not believe Buffett is having any second thoughts in his arrangement with Harley-Davidson,” said David Kass, a Berkshire shareholder and business professor at the University of Maryland. “He is probably very pleased with his 15 percent loan, which he perceived as having very little risk.”
