    Warren Buffett Says "Father Time Always Wins." History Says Investors Who Do This 1 Thing Will Win Out Anyway.

    Warren Buffett has stepped down as Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, with his son Howard taking over. The article highlights Buffett's investment philosophy: long-term holding of quality businesses generates wealth better than short-term trading. Key examples include decades-long positions in Coca-Cola, American Express, and Apple. For average investors, Buffett recommends dollar-cost averaging into low-cost S&P 500 index funds rather than attempting individual stock picking.

The price increase should significantly boost Disney's streaming profitability.
