With the Annual Meeting just days away, it would be a good time to discuss any surprises and predictions that may come our way on Saturday.
I'll start first:

I think there is a good chance that WEB formally gives up his position of CEO.
He has publicly stated that he has given up many day to day things in his life.
He has also fully pulled back from commenting in the press, something he loved his entire career.
This started way before Trump was elected, so I don't think this is just about hiding from comments on that.

It feels like he is CEO in title only, and his comment in this year's letter that "it won't be long" until Greg is CEO could refer to more than just his life expectancy.

To me it just feels that this year's meeting won't just be another "business as usual " affair and that real change is afoot.

What are your predictions for Saturday?
