That's 6.7 percentage points better than Berkshire's gain. <br /> <br />It's the first year since 2004 that Berkshire has underperformed the S&P. <br /> <br />Last year, Berkshire's per-share book value fell 9.6 percent, but that was much better than the S&P's 37.0 percent plunge. <br /> <br />Berkshire has underperformed the S&P in just seven calendar years since Buffett took over in 1965. <br />... <br /><a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/35616702" target="_blank">http://www.cnbc.com/id/35616702</a></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
