This morning, we woke up to the news that Buffett is buying Van Tuyl Group, the nation’s largest privately held car dealership chain. Not only that, but Warren said that he intends to buy more.

I wonder what Buffett is seeing in U.S. car dealers. With auto stocks in free fall and the rise of Uber and Tesla. Maybe, real estate?
