Warren Buffett Steps Down as Berkshire Hathaway CEO

Warren Buffett, widely known as the Oracle of Omaha, has stepped down as chief executive officer of Berkshire Hathaway, ending a leadership era spanning nearly six decades. At 95 years old, Buffett has handed daily executive control to Greg Abel, while continuing as chairman and remaining involved in major strategic decisions. Buffett’s tenure began in 1965 when he took control of the once-struggling Berkshire textile business and redirected capital toward insurance, reinsurance, and diversified investments. Over the years his patient, value-based approach became the hallmark of Berkshire’s growth and a framework for many investors. The change signals leadership continuity, with Abel seen as a capable successor aligned with Buffett’s long‑term philosophy.
  • Buffett steps down as CEO after nearly 60 years; Greg Abel becomes CEO; Buffett remains chairman.
  • He started Berkshire’s shift from textiles to insurance and diversified investments in 1965.
  • Buffett’s value‑based investing approach defined Berkshire’s growth and influenced modern investing.
