Berkshire Hathaway Inc. began its journey as a humble textile manufacturing company in the early 19th century. However, a pivotal transformation occurred when Warren Buffett took control in 1965 and turned it into a powerhouse of investment and conglomerate empire. The key to Berkshire's meteoric rise has been Buffett's unique investment philosophy where he focuses on the intrinsic value of companies, buying undervalued businesses with strong fundamentals and reliable management. Today, rather than textiles, Berkshire stands as a microcosm of the American economy with its diverse range of holdings and operating businesses spanning from insurance, railroads, utilities, to consumer goods, and fintech. The heart of Berkshire Hathaway's operations revolves around its vast portfolio of wholly owned subsidiaries and significant minority stakes in publicly traded stocks. Its insurance operations, led by entities such as GEICO and Berkshire Hathaway Reinsurance, act as a financial cornerstone, generating substantial premium float that can be invested to compound returns over time. Simultaneously, companies like BNSF Railway and Berkshire Hathaway Energy provide steady, predictable cash flows, aiding in funding further acquisitions and investments. Meanwhile, the equity investments in stalwarts like Apple provide substantial capital gains and dividends. This intricate symbiosis of varied businesses not only fuels Berkshire's financial growth but also encapsulates an ethos of patience and value investment that has captivated investors globally.
