On May 4, according to Wall Street News, Warren Buffett, the "God of Stocks" of Berkshire Hathaway's shareholders' meeting, the annual event of the investment community, once again participated in the whole process, and together with his CEO successor, Greg Abel, the head of Berkshire's non-insurance business, and Ajit Jain, the head of the insurance business, answered questions from shareholders. Although Buffett did not name Trump by name, he criticized tariffs and trade protectionism, saying that fiscal policy was his biggest concern for the United States, and repeatedly mentioned the risk of a weaker dollar, warning that the value of the currency would be "frightening" if the U.S. government acted irresponsibly. Still, it hinted at continuing to bet on the United States and believe in American exceptionalism. Warren Buffett reiterated his optimism about Japanese stocks at the meeting, saying that he would continue to hold them for fifty or sixty years, and made a speech to downplay the recent volatility of U.S. stocks, saying that it was not a violent bear market. Berkshire's first-quarter earnings report, released earlier Saturday, showed that Berkshire's cash reserves reached a record high of $347.7 billion in the quarter. In an environment of high uncertainty due to tariffs, Buffett is cautious about current investments, saying that there will be good investment opportunities in the next five years. This year marks the 60th anniversary of Buffett's acquisition of Berkshire, and the shareholder meeting is considered the most important in history, and may be the last shareholder meeting that Buffett will participate in in full, and Buffett announced at the end of the Q&A session that he plans to propose to the board of directors to step down as CEO by the end of this year. That would be the beginning of the end of the "Warren Buffett era" in Berkshire, and investors would have to prepare for a Berkshire without Warren Buffett at the helm.
