Warren Buffett gibt den Chefposten bei Berkshire Hathaway ab. Das ist der nächste Schritt in seinem Plan für die Nachfolge.
🇩🇪 Deutsch
Warren Buffett is giving up his title as chairman of Berkshire Hathaway.
The company announced the change on Friday.
Buffett is 96.
He will become chairman emeritus.
He will take on the new role right away.
His oldest son, Howard, will become the new chairman.
Howard Buffett has been on the board since 1993.
Buffett had been chairman since 1970.
He took control of the struggling New England textile company in 1965.
He will remain a director.
Greg Abel became CEO at the start of this year.
Buffett still came into the office each day.
He looked for investments and advised Abel.
It is not clear whether his routine will change.
Buffett wrote a letter to shareholders.
He said he has served Berkshire since 1965.
He said he still has the best job in the world.
He said he is confident in Abel and Howard leading the company.
Abel runs the company, Buffett said.
Howard will guard its culture and values, Buffett said.
Investor Adam Mead said Buffett seems to be trying to lessen the impact on Berkshire when he eventually dies.
The announcement did not reveal any health issues.
Analyst Cathy Seifert said investors still have questions.
They wonder how well Abel will deploy Berkshire's $365 billion cash pile.
Professor Michael Withers said the test will be whether Abel and Howard can honor Buffett's legacy.
They must also let Berkshire adapt.
