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.

This year's annual meeting of Berkshire Hathaway shareholders kicked off with a video tribute to Berkshire vice chairman and Warren Buffett right-hand man Charlie Munger, who passed away last year at age 99. Buying great companies, rather than great valuesWhen citing Munger's most important lessons, multiple shareholders on the floor recalled a key early disagreement between Munger and Buffett. "I learned that it's better to buy good businesses at fair prices than pretty bad businesses at really great prices," said Jerone Gillespie of Maryland. "I think that's the same thing that Warren Buffett said was one of the most important lessons that he learned from him." But now that you control Berkshire, add to it wonderful businesses purchased at fair prices and give up buying fair businesses at wonderful prices," Buffett recalls Munger telling him in 1965.

When you invest in an index fund, you're essentially buying a basket of stocks that represents a broad market or theme. "That book makes a really good case for index funds." They own the Vanguard 500 Index Fund Admiral Shares Fund (VFIAX), the Vanguard Information Technology Index Fund ETF (ETF, VGT), and the Fidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF (ETF, FTEC). Note that ETFs, like index funds, offer an easy way to diversify and bundle several securities into one investment. Since index funds are passively managed, they typically have lower costs than actively managed funds — and, historically, they outperform active funds.
