"Under certain market conditions, we could deploy quite a bit of money in repurchases," he said at the shareholder meeting. Berkshire paid $9.2 billion in all of 2023 to repurchase both Class A and Class B shares. "I think it's a fair assumption that [cash holdings] will probably be about $200 billion at the end of this quarter," Buffett said. Cash is attractive Asked about the lack of action to invest his mountain of cash, Buffett revealed that he finds cash attractive right now compared to other assets, especially equities. "If I saw one of those now, I'd do it for Berkshire," Buffett said, referring to his Japanese bet.

☆ 'Twist' in Warren Buffett's succession plan raises eyebrows among Berkshire's Omaha faithful
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-06 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

OMAHA, Nebraska — Many Berkshire Hathaway shareholders left last weekend's annual meeting pondering Warren Buffett's big revelation about succession. Others think Abel will be more likely to delegate the responsibility of stock selection. Buffett's investment lieutenants, Todd Combs and Ted Weschler, have independently managed about $15 billion each for Berkshire over the past decade. In addition to Berkshire's enormous equity portfolio, its pile of cash grew to nearly $189 billion at the end of March. The new forecast would translate into more than 20% upside and push Berkshire's total market value above $1 trillion.

Skyler Miser credits her love for the circus to her parents Brian and Tina, who performed in earlier versions of the Ringling Circus in the early and mid-2000s. Skyler Miser's average work shift lasts about three seconds — a time during which she's shot out of a cannon in front of thousands of people. Miser was just 2 years old when she first performed in the circus, joining her parents on stage to introduce their act. Her father, Brian Miser, and her mother Tina Miser performed in earlier versions of the Ringling Circus in the early and mid-2000s, also as human cannonballs. During her act, Miser is propelled about 70 feet in the air at speeds of up to 65 miles an hour.

The Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders meeting Saturday will be broadcast exclusively on CNBC and livestreamed on CNBC.com. Chairman and CEO Warren Buffett is expected to field questions from Berkshire Hathaway shareholders who are attending the meeting in Omaha, beginning at 10:15 a.m. The event is always closely watched, but this year's will be noteworthy because Buffett won't have Charlie Munger by his side. Munger, the former vice chairman of Berkshire, was known for his sharp wit, and his absence is being felt by the thousands attending the event. Among the questions that will be top of mind at the "Woodstock or Capitalists" will be what Buffett's mystery holding is.

☆ Israel and Iran: All-out war, or measured retaliation?

Atta Kenare | AFP | Getty Imageswatch nowBut a full-blown conventional war would be devastating to both sides and highly destabilizing for the Middle East. Are these tit-for-tat blows between Israel and Iran clear evidence of all-out war, or carefully calibrated retaliation strikes? "With Israel's apparent strikes on Iran today, retaliating for Iran's attack on Israel last Sunday, we now have a direct nation-on-nation hot war," he told CNBC's "Capital Connection" Friday. 'Ball is back in Iran's court'Not everyone agrees that the line into wider war has been crossed, however. Within hours of the Israeli strikes, risk assets were already on their way back down, with international oil benchmark Brent crude turning lower for the session after a brief spike.

Israel said it intercepted 99% of the more than 300 projectiles from Iran. The U.S. has imposed hundreds of sanctions on Iran and its proxies in recent years for their connections to terrorism and for the country's missile program.

Iran's aerial attack on Israel mirrored Russian tactics in Ukraine, according to analysts. Another analyst disagreed, saying Iran used similar tactics long before Russia's full-scale invasion. AdvertisementSome military analysts are comparing Iran's attempt to bombard Israel over the weekend with Russian tactics in Ukraine. The IDF estimated that the attack used 170 drones, 30 cruise missiles, and 120 ballistic missiles. He pointed to Iran's 2019 attack on two major Saudi oil refineries, which also reportedly used drones combined with cruise missiles.

Should the Israeli regime commit any military aggression again, Iran's response will assuredly and decisively be stronger and more resolute,” Ambassador Iravani added. Citing self-defense against repeated Israeli military aggressions, Iravani said the strikes were specifically in retaliation to an Israeli attack on April 1 against what Iran says were diplomatic facilities in Damascus. Iran claims the attack violated international law and led to the death of seven Iranian military advisors, including key commanders from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. The statement also criticizes the United Nations Security Council for “failing to uphold international peace,” allowing Israel to “breach” established international norms and “escalate” regional tensions. However an Israel Defense Forces spokesman told CNN that their intelligence showed the building was not a consulate and was instead “a military building of Quds forces disguised as a civilian building.”
