Deep Dive - Buffett's successor Greg Abel shows immediate skin in the game
Investment holding company Berkshire Hathaway is entering a new era as Warren Buffett hands over the reins to Greg Abel. Despite weak quarterly figures, the core remains intact: a strong balance sheet, strict capital allocation, and a long-term focus.
For decades, the American investment holding company Berkshire Hathaway (New York: BRK-B) was synonymous with Warren Buffett, its major shareholder and one of the world's best investors of all time.
Buffett has now handed over the reins to Greg Abel, who published his first letter to shareholders last week, along with the 2025 annual report. Abel also showed his skin in the game this week by committing to reinvest his entire annual salary in Berkshire Hathaway shares each year. Finally, Abel also gave an interview to news channel CNBC. In short: there is plenty to discuss in this deep dive.
