Best Buy: Berkshire, Mastercard, or Bank of America?

Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: BRK-A)(NYSE: BRK-B), Mastercard Inc (NYSE: MA), and Bank of America Corp (NYSE: BAC) are three very large companies that share some characteristics that make them attractive to investors. There's certainly a case to be made for all three. As a matter of fact, I own them all, and may buy more shares of each of them in the future.

But there are things, in particular, that make Mastercard and Bank of America very compelling today, and two things that keep Berkshire from being in the running -- at least right now.
