Buffett to buy Zurich insurance group?


Warren Buffett is holding $46 bn in cash and was recently reported to be speculating in a foreign currency. He has also been saying he's like to buy a big company, perhaps in insurance. Zurich Financial Services rose 3.2 percent and is valued at $45 bn - see Bloomberg.

That currency hedge wouldn't happen to be Swiss francs, would it?
