Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway holds its shareholders' meeting in Omaha each year. It's known as the Woodstock for value investors. A recent guest on this podcast, Phil Weiss of Apprise Wealth, mentioned that he was attending and I asked if he would return and report to listeners. The Berkshire Annual Meeting is unique as most companies only talk to "The Street" or analysts, but Warren & Charlie and other principals take questions from ordinary shareholders. Berkshire releases earnings on Saturday morning typically when the market's not open. The results can be digested and no-one gets any information earlier. It's a special occasion in terms of communicating with the company, hearing about the company's performance, and answering questions which are not just about the company but about life in general.
