Berkshire's Class A shares fell as much as 6.2% to their lowest level since August 2003, before regaining some ground after the White House said it strongly believed the U.S. banking system should stay in private hands, and not be nationalized. Still, Berkshire's market value has fallen more than $115 billion in fewer than 15 months, Reuters data show
