Odaily News: 96-year-old Warren Buffett has formally resigned as Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A, BRK.B), transitioning to Chairman Emeritus and remaining on the board effective immediately. His eldest son, Howard G. Buffett, succeeds him as Chairman, while lead independent director Susan Decker will remain in her role.

This marks another key milestone in Berkshire's multi-year management succession process. Greg Abel officially took over as Chief Executive Officer on January 1 of this year, overseeing the company's capital allocation, investments, and operations management. With the chairman position now handed to Howard, the chairman and CEO roles that had long been concentrated in Buffett alone are now borne by two separate successors.

In his shareholder letter that day, Buffett said: "Father Time always wins." He noted that time has been generous enough to allow him to see Berkshire reach a position that gives him more confidence in its future than ever before. Regarding the new power structure, he offered a more direct division of responsibilities: "Greg runs the company, and Howard safeguards the company's culture and values."

Odaily reports: QCP Capital stated in a post that Bitcoin faced two major bearish events within 48 hours — a procedural vote setback for the CLARITY Act and a Federal Reserve rate hike — yet the price still showed some resilience, briefly falling to a monthly low of around $75,900 and currently holding near $76,500.

QCP noted that spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of $450 million and $296 million on September 15 and 16, respectively, but flipped to net inflows of $159 million on the 17th, with BlackRock's IBIT recording $184 million in net inflows, indicating that capital flows improved after the Fed rate hike.

QCP believes the 25 basis point rate hike had been fully priced in by the market, and what is more noteworthy is Fed Chair Warsh's hawkish remarks on inflation and policy restrictiveness. However, U.S. Treasury yields subsequently fell across the board, suggesting the market may interpret the current hike as reducing the need for further rate increases in the future.
