Warren Buffet BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Warren Buffett hasn’t made any public appearances or given interviews in the past few days, but the investing world is still buzzing around him as his retirement as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway approaches at year end. According to The Berkshire Beat newsletter, someone at Berkshire recently bought 17.8 million shares of Alphabet last quarter, a move that’s now drawing extra attention after Elon Musk, on the People by WTF podcast, called Alphabet and Google a future powerhouse in AI and a potential investment idea. That purchase has analysts wondering whether Alphabet is becoming one of Buffett’s so-called forever stocks, even though he’s long said Apple is more of a consumer play than a tech bet. Berkshire also collected $17.5 million in quarterly dividends from Krogr and $5.6 million from Visa this week, underscoring its continued reliance on big, stable cash flow machines.

Buffett’s broader strategy is getting dissected in financial media as his final days as CEO loom. Nasdaq analysis notes that Berkshire has been a net seller of stocks for 12 straight quarters, with net sales totaling about 184 billion dollars, while building up a record 381 billion dollar cash pile as of the third quarter of 2025. That massive cash position is being read by some as a warning that Buffett sees the broader market as overvalued, especially with the S&P 500’s Shiller CAPE ratio near 40, a level historically associated with weaker returns in the years that follow.

On the personal side, Fortune recently revisited Buffett’s famous family Christmas tradition, explaining that he stopped giving his relatives 10,000 dollars in cash each year after realizing they’d just spend it, and instead started gifting them shares, like Coca Cola trust stock and Wells Fargo. That story is circulating again as the holiday season hits, reinforcing his image as the ultimate long term investor who wants his family to think in terms of ownership, not spending. There are no new social media mentions or unverified rumors about Buffett himself, but the focus remains tightly on his final moves at Berkshire and what they signal for the market in 2026 and beyond.
