Warren Buffett has officially stepped down, but could Berkshire still have a bright future?

Warren Buffett officially stepped down as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A +1.19%)(BRK.B +0.80%) at the end of 2025, and the stock is 12% lower since he announced his departure. In this video, I'll discuss what I'm watching in 2026, and where I think Berkshire's stock price will be in five years.
