Warren Buffett passes the CEO torch to Greg Abel in 2026, remaining as chairman, a move felt across the galaxy.
Warren Buffett passes the CEO torch to Greg Abel in 2026, remaining as chairman, a move felt across the galaxy.

A Shift in the Force There Is

Hmm a seismic shift I sense. At Berkshire Hathaway yes. Warren Buffett wise and old like Yoda am I preparing to step aside he is. CEO no longer will he be from January 1st 2026 hmmm. Greg Abel the chosen one will take the reins he shall. A new hope this is for the company yes.

Chairman He Remains Like Obi Wan!

But fear not shareholders! The Oracle of Omaha gone he is not. Chairman he remains like Obi Wan watching over Luke hmmm. Guidance he will provide wisdom he will impart. Big acquisitions in times of volatility he will assist. Cash mountains of it Berkshire sits upon. $347 billion more than yes. Enough to buy a Death Star perhaps... but invest wisely we must.

A Surprise It Was. Shocked Abel Was!

Announced at the annual meeting this news was. Shareholders shocked they were. Abel himself surprised he was. Imagine hmm? To learn your fate in the final minutes like discovering Palpatine's return! But ready Abel is. Prepare himself he must.

Tariffs Loom A Dark Cloud

Uncertainty Berkshire warns of yes. Tariffs a dark cloud on the horizon. Like the Trade Federation blockading Naboo this is. Affect the outlook tariffs could. Careful we must be. Protect the investments we will.

The Market Responds Calmly

Shares dipped only slightly they did. A mere 2% down they were. Even with the CEO news and earnings... disappointing somewhat they were. But the Force is strong with Berkshire. Over $1.1 trillion the market value yes. A record high achieved it has.

Abel the Chosen One Since 2021

Designated successor Abel has been since 2021. Years of preparation he has had. Now his time has come. Lead Berkshire he will. May the Force be with him always it must. A great responsibility he now carries. Use it wisely he must. Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. So let's hope Abel focuses on his tasks and not go the Anakin Skywalker way.
