We're not expecting Berkshire Hathaway to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Berkshire Hathaway's shares were split on a 50:1 basis on 20 January 2010. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 50 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Berkshire Hathaway shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 98% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Berkshire Hathaway shares which in turn could have impacted Berkshire Hathaway's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Berkshire Hathaway's shares have ranged in value from as little as $317.41 up to $430. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Berkshire Hathaway's is 0.888. This would suggest that Berkshire Hathaway's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
