Book covers with images of Warren Buffett, chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, hang above tables during the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders meeting in Omaha, Nebraska.
The Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meeting this weekend will be big business for one bookstore in Omaha.
Tens of thousands of value-investing followers descend upon the Midwest city every year, eager to soak up folksy wisdom from Warren Buffett and spend money at restaurants and shops around town.
“It’s our biggest time of the year. The day after the Berkshire Hathaway shareholders meeting, every year is a huge day,” Jim Ross, manager of the Hudson Booksellers store inside Omaha’s airport, said on CNBC’s original documentary “Warren Buffett: Investor. Teacher. Icon.” The documentary, hosted by Becky Quick, premieres Friday at 10 p.m. ET.
