Investors endorse Greg Abel-even as Berkshire crowd thins without Buffett as CEO. 'This was definitely the meeting with the deepest insights' | Fortune
"Greg Abel, a Berkshire veteran who joined the company in 1999 and oversaw all its non-insurance businesses starting in 2018, said 'both those jerseys will remain in the rafters for the years to come.'"
"Abel deftly explained the breadth of Berkshire's businesses and covered everything from Clayton Homes' affordable $249,000 'cross-mod' homes to the opportunity that exists for Berkshire's energy division to capitalize on the proliferation of data centers."
Greg Abel's inaugural annual meeting as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway was marked by a more business-focused tone and a smaller audience. Warren Buffett, the former CEO, remains involved as chairman. The meeting honored Buffett's legacy with jerseys commemorating his 60 years and Charlie Munger's 45 years at the company. Abel, who has been with Berkshire since 1999, effectively led the meeting, discussing various business segments, including affordable housing and energy opportunities, impressing long-time investors with his detailed knowledge.
