Warren Buffett must have thought the questions at his annual shareholders meeting were too easy. He sought out a “bear” to add to the panel of questioners for this May’s meeting.
Douglas A. Kass was quickly selected for the role. He is the president of Seabreeze Partners Management Inc. and a regular guest on CNBC. Read about how Kass learned of his role in the Wall Street Journal blog.
The Omaha World Herald’s weekly column on Buffett, Warren Watch, also had some info on Kass. But my favorite tidbit of info in this week’s column was about how Warren Buffett tried to beat Condoleeza Rice’s record when it came to signing books. Think you could do 500 books in an hour? Maybe only if you don’t have a middle initial. Read the store on the Omaha World Herald’s website.
