60年来，巴菲特执掌的伯克希尔哈撒韦，市值增长超过5.5万倍，同期标普500指数的增长率只有390倍。从1965年至2024年，伯克希尔哈撒韦实现的年复合 增长率接近20%。即使是在公司大体量规模的基础上，依然不改伯克希尔哈撒韦亮眼的市场表现。 年近95岁的巴菲特，执掌伯克希尔哈撒韦公司已经有60年的时间。在60年的时间里，巴菲特带领着伯克希尔哈撒韦从小公司变成了大公司，再从大公司变成 了巨无霸公司，为长期坚守伯克希尔哈撒韦的股东们创造出非常可观的投资收益率。 在2025年巴菲特股东大会上，巴菲特在现场宣布了他的退休计划，并计划在今年底退休，并由格雷格·阿贝尔接任伯克希尔哈撒韦的首席执行官职位。 年近95岁的巴菲特宣布退休，虽然大家早有预期，但当大家听到了这个消息之后，难免会有些意外。当巴菲特正式退休之后，将宣布巴菲特时代正式落幕， 伯克希尔哈撒韦即将进入格雷格·阿贝尔的时代。 巴菲特是全球公认的投资大师，多年来一直有人在模仿复制巴菲特，但真正成功模仿的人却寥寥无几。 当下，美股市场正处于牛熊转换的阶段，而且美国经济面临着巨大的不确定风险。在此背景下，伯克希尔哈撒韦的现金储备规模创出了历史新高，接近3500 ...
