News and notes from around the interweb:
- More people want to stay in Trump hotels now that he was elected President. But the increase comes from people who didn’t even know he had hotels, and a majority of Americans don’t want to stay at the eponymous properties.
- Warren Buffet is long American, Delta, United, and Southwest. This from the man who famously said, “If a capitalist had been present at Kitty Hawk back in the early 1900s, he should have shot Orville Wright. He would have saved his progeny money.”
Berkshire Hathaway said in a regulatory filing that it owned $797 million of American shares, $249 million of Delta shares and $238 million of United shares as of Sept. 30. Buffett on Monday told CNBC that Berkshire has also invested in Southwest, but the amount was not disclosed because it came after the Sept. 30 filing period.
- St. Louis airport wants a contract lounge perhaps the next location for ‘The Club’ or other Priority Pass-accessible location.

At least she didn’t say “ride me”
Election of Trump ranks up there amongst other injustices of the world : like mugabwe, Idi amin and stalin dying of old age instead of like Gaddafi, dragged and then shot.
Remember there is no karma and there is no God. Only stupid people are religious.
By the way the Republicans are not too much different than ISIS : ends will justify any means. The isis were raping and cutting heads off, republicans were pu$$y grabbing and beating up minorities. If Americans were poorer they would be out raping and pillaging too. Civilized my foot!
Regrettable that the WSJ link is subscriber only
@Credit: I’d like to arrange for you to take a personality test …….at the closest Scientology office……
@ Credit No one can say with scientific certainty that there is no God because not human knows all of everything there is to be known. Rather, I would posit that there is better chance that God does exist because He talks to me and my friends a lot. You could easily choose to say that we are nutso, but then, what if we aren’t nutso at all… again, no one can say so with 100 percent proof. I would take a chance for the idea that He is waiting to tell you all about himself but you have closed your mind to hearing Him.
That’s not very much $$ from Buffet, a man who plopped $5 billion into BOA when it was $5.40 a share.
@Credit Yeah, Republicans are repugnant creatures. Not at all like those Dem paragons of virtue Bill Clinton and Anthony Wiener. LOL !
Can someone list the regrettable airline slogans here in the comments? I can’t read them on the WSJ site because I’m not a subscriber 🙁
