Thanks to all of you for the warm welcome back! I am touched. And Geez Louise, there apparently are some very ancient (but still with firing synapses) people hanging out here!

I am glad I checked in on the KHC news. I plan to be back if and when I think I might have something worthwhile to share.

BTW, I did not see any posts about the recent Reuters news that Greg Abel was in Tokyo this week meeting with all five of the Japanese investees. He reportedly is looking for deals. Fingers crossed.

So suddenly Berkshire’s reps resign from the KHC board. Hmmm. And now Greg is out making road trips to Tokyo. I am always optimistic about Berkshire’s future (so far, so good), so I am going to go with the hypothesis that Greg is highly motivated to get things moving in a positive direction before he offically takes the reins on 1/1/26. Stay tuned!
