The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I was wondering if and how stew might disclose the latest news from brk here it is.

" Note to Stockholders on Concentration of Investments
Stockholders should be aware that the Fund is highly concentrated in a small number of positions. Concentrating investments in a fewer number of securities may involve greater risk than a fund with less concentrated investments spread out over a greater number of securities. In particular, the Fund is highly concentrated in Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (“Berkshire”), which, in addition to other business risks, has historically been dependent on Warren Buffett for major investment and capital allocation decisions. On May 4, 2025, Berkshire approved the appointment of Greg Abel, its Vice Chairman – Non-Insurance Operations, to replace Mr. Buffett as its President and Chief Executive Officer effective January 1, 2026, with Mr. Buffett continuing as Chairman of its Board of Directors. There can be no certainty as to how this change in leadership may impact Berkshire's business operations or financial performance, or how the market will respond to this transition. As a result, the value and volatility of the Fund's position in Berkshire may be materially and adversely impacted."

Well done.
