TIP810: Berkshire Hathaway 2026 Valuation w/ Chris Bloomstran

You're listening to TIP. Today's episode is one of my absolute favorites of the year and is becoming a bit of a tradition. I'm joined once again by my friend Chris Broomstrand from Semper Augustus. Chris is one of those investors I've learned so much from over the years and every time we sit down, I'm reminded why. He has this unique ability to combine very deep analytical thinking with very practical, real-world understanding of how businesses actually work.

Now, to me, Chris is the top authority when it comes to Berkshare. And as always, we publish this conversation right before the annual meeting. We dig deep into what Berkshire is worth today, how to think about intrinsic value and what is actually going on under the hood. We also discussed Greg Abel stepping into Buffett's role, how Berkshire should be managed going forward. And what investors should pay attention to right now, not just when it comes to Berkshire, but across markets.
