  "summary": "Berkshire Hathaway, under the control of Warren Buffett since 1965, has not paid a dividend since 1967, despite its shares gaining an average of 19.9% annually. The company's strategy of reinvesting earnings and investment gains into new ventures and acquisitions has been the cornerstone of its success. With Greg Abel now leading Berkshire Hathaway since 2026, there are no indications that the focus on capital reinvestment will shift.",
