With this weekend's Barron's postulating that Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: BRK.A) is overvalued (for a good analysis check out Peter Cohan's review), investors that are looking for a great holding/investment company should look at Leucadia National (NYSE: LUK). This undiscovered company with a hodgepodge of investments ranging from timber to real estate to a winery, has been a stellar performer for investors. Over the last two years, Leucadia has outperformed Berkshire by about 50% and over the last five years, it's no comparison. The little-known Leucadia has eaten Berkshire's lunch, outperforming it by more than 170%!

It's no secret that many investors are worried that Mr. Buffett will step down in the near future, and that when he does investors will flee the stock. For those wanting to continue investing in an investment company, take a long hard look at Leucadia.
