Warren Bueffet BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Warren Buffett has been making headlines in recent days with what can only be described as the most significant development for Berkshire Hathaway in decades—his official announcement that he will retire as CEO at the end of 2025, after more than half a century at the helm. According to Seeking Alpha and echoed by 24/7 Wall St, this transition will see Greg Abel, current head of Berkshire Hathaway Energy, tapped as his successor, marking the imminent end of an era that fundamentally shaped modern value investing and corporate leadership. Shareholder reaction was immediate: Berkshire Hathaway shares initially dipped, as detailed in 24/7 Wall St, with many market watchers noting what they call the melting away of the “Warren Buffett premium”—the intangible edge the Oracle of Omaha has long bestowed on the company’s stock. Yet, investors and analysts alike caution against underestimating Buffett's knack for picking great managers, hinting that the foundation he’s built remains solid.

Buffett’s public appearances have naturally revolved around the 2025 Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholder Meeting, which doubled as a swan song of sorts. Clips circulating on YouTube and coverage by The Street captured Buffett’s musings on everything from tariffs, the US budget deficit, and stock market volatility to his ever-cautious stance on AI and why Berkshire continues to stockpile cash, waiting for “fat pitches” worth swinging at. His classic wit was on full display, openly acknowledging he would “resent it” if his successor got better investment opportunities immediately after his exit.

Social media has been abuzz, with trending hashtags like #BuffettRetires and #EndofanEra capturing the public’s reaction. Buffett himself, while not an avid social media user, has been the subject of countless investor memes and tribute threads, often quoting his trademark lines about value, integrity, and long-term thinking.

In the realm of business, Validea and Nasdaq both spotlighted Buffett’s continued influence on information technology stock picking, even as he prepares to step back. Meanwhile, AIbase and Cointelegraph revisited Buffett’s ambivalent attitude toward artificial intelligence, reminding everyone of his comparisons between the risks of deepfake technology and nuclear weapons. AI is increasingly relevant in several Berkshire portfolio companies, even though Buffett personally maintains a cautious view.

On the real estate front, The Street reports that Berkshire Hathaway’s real estate arm expects turbulence and possible resets in the US housing market, further evidence that Buffett’s fingerprints remain on market outlooks even as he readies his official exit. As June deepens, the sense of transition is palpable—Buffett’s legendary run is winding down, but his shadow will loom large over American capitalism, boardrooms, and Wall Street’s collective psyche for years, if not decades, to come.
