OMAHA -- Billionaire Warren Buffett said Monday that stocks remain relatively cheap compared with other investments as the economy improves.

The chairman and chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. addressed a variety of topics during an interview on the cable TV network CNBC, two days after his annual letter to shareholders was released. Mr. Buffett said even though stocks aren’t as cheap as during the depths of the recession in 2008, they’re still more attractive long term than bonds, gold, cash, or anything else.
