OMAHA â€" Greetings from the CenturyLink Center, where Berkshire Hathaway will host its annual shareholder meeting.
Tens of thousands of investors have arrived, and they’re again expected to pack the arena to listen to what Warren E. Buffett has to say about the state of his conglomerate, the economy and whatever else crosses his mind. Once again, he’s unlikely to identify his successor, though someone will almost certainly ask.
One change this year is the presence of a handpicked “credentialed bear,†the hedge fund manager Douglas A. Kass, whom Mr. Buffett selected specifically to ask tough questions. It’s the latest attempt by the Berkshire chief to shake up the annual meeting’s format and address more substantive issues.
