He stated that the quarterly reports that companies put out nowadays have been written in a fashion to keep shareholders happy and to make the company look pretty instead of informing present and potential shareholders about the status of the company. As a result, a company's value is very difficult to determine -- even Buffet has a difficult time understanding some businesses after reading their reports. All of the positive spin that the companies have been using to boost their share price is now biting them in the ass, as it were, and the share prices are beginning to reflect the true value of these companies, thus resulting in the present recession.
