Summary

  • Warren Buffett will step down as Berkshire Hathaway CEO at year-end after 55 years
  • Greg Abel, vice chairman, will succeed him; Buffett has no plans to sell shares
  • Buffett will stay on in an advisory role, ensuring continuity in leadership

Warren Buffett has announced that he will step down as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway at the end of the year, marking the conclusion of his 55-year tenure leading the company. The announcement was made during Berkshire Hathaway’s annual shareholder meeting, where he stated that Greg Abel, currently vice chairman overseeing the company’s operating businesses, will take over the role. “I think the time has arrived where Greg should become the chief executive of the company at year end,” said Buffett, who emphasized that he believes Berkshire will continue to thrive under Abel’s leadership and confirmed that he has no plans to sell his shares.

Buffett took control of Berkshire Hathaway in 1965 when it was a struggling textile company and transformed it into a trillion-dollar conglomerate. Under his leadership, Berkshire Hathaway achieved an annual per-share value growth rate of 19.9%, nearly double the S&P 500’s average annual gain. His investment strategies, including major stakes in companies like GEICO, Coca-Cola, American Express and Apple, solidified his reputation as one of the most successful investors in history.

While Buffett did not detail his reasons for stepping down, his age and long-standing succession planning suggest a natural transition. He will remain involved in an advisory capacity, although Abel will now hold the final say on major decisions. Buffett’s departure marks the end of an era, yet his legacy as the “Oracle of Omaha” endures.
