Overview

Warren Buffett handed off the CEO job at Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRKA)(NYSE: BRKB) to hand-picked successor Greg Abel at the start of 2026. Abel has worked with Buffett for years and is steeped in the ways of the so-called Oracle of Omaha. But Abel is doing something unusual right now; he's buying back Berkshire Hathaway stock.

Buffett had a value bias, preferring to buy companies only when he believed their prices were attractive. New CEO Abel appears to be following that same path with his first major acquisition. Wall Street roundly considered Taylor Morrison Home a good value based on the $6.8 billion Abel paid. But Taylor Morrison Home isn't the only thing that Abel is buying.
