About this episode
Berkshire Hathaway Chairman and CEO Warren Buffett is in Tokyo for the first time in 11 years. This special three-part series delivers Becky Quick’s full interview with the 92-year-old Oracle of Omaha and his successor Greg Abel in Japan. In Part 1, the Berkshire leaders explain their bullish case on Japan’s five largest trading houses, plus the similarities–and differences–in their leadership styles. Buffett and Abel discuss everything from basketball to the Berkshire-owned railroad, BNSF, while Joe Kernen and Andrew Ross Sorkin join stateside.
