I think that U.S. is cheaper than Brazil. If I had more money, I would buy some U.S. shares.

FT: Buffett steps into the cloud with his bet on Big Blue
Now it's clearer why Buffett bought it...
According to Google, IBM has a P/E < 15, ROE 65% and FCF of 6.4% (or 5.2% if discounted the whole investments).
Again, given the quality of the country and company, it's a nice bet. I just feel sorry for not having enough money to put some there...
