Greg Abel

“You can make the case that Abel is actually just replaying Buffett's strategy, only this time Berkshire Hathaway is See's Candies, and Google is BNSF.”

“Berkshire is paying $72.50 per Taylor Morrison share, representing a 24% premium to Friday's closing price.”

“Abel says he plans to 'unify' Berkshire's home building operations — which already include Clayton Homes — into a 'combined platform.'”

“This is Berkshire's first major acquisition under CEO Greg Abel, who took over after Warren Buffett retired at the end of last year.”
