Last week's trivia answer

You may not know my name, but I'm one of America's largest companies. I own Dairy Queen, Benjamin Moore, Johns Manville, GEICO, Nebraska Furniture Mart, Executive Jet, See's Candies, Acme Brick, The Pampered Chef, Fruit of the Loom and much more. My class A shares sell for around $140,000 each. My class B shares sell for nearly $5,000. Insurance is my main business. I've invested money from it in stock of American Express, Procter & Gamble, Wells Fargo and Coca-Cola, among others. Over 41 years, my per-share book value has grown an average of 21 percent annually. Who am I?
