The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Hi, one of the most frustrating things about being a long time brk shareholder is the fact that the annual meeting has become almost worthless. First, I'll stipulate that I didn't watch much of it, again.

So tell me,

Was Buffett asked his current thoughts with respect to retired people or any investor being 90 percent SPY at the current valuation, current concentration, current rule changes for inclusion etc? To be honest, Buffett shouldn't even be waiting for the question, HE, should be updating Becky without being asked, Imo.



Did anyone ask Buffett or Greg what are the last three major stock buys by brk that do not pay a dividend?

WHY do several Mag 8 type stocks pay a small div, they are all wrong? THEY, are all poor capital allocators?

Did Buffett ever tell Cook never raise the div again, just keep buying back the stock, and I won't sell a share?

Was spinning out the apple shs as a dividend ever considered by Buffett?

Does paying a rising div increase the likelihood of long-term holder's?


Let's start there, were any of my questions asked? Thank you.
