There will be a lot for shareholders to celebrate when Warren Buffett marks 60 years at the helm of Berkshire Hathaway at Saturday’s annual meeting in Omaha. One of the most amazing statistics of his tenure is that Berkshire stock could fall 99% and still be ahead of the S&P 500 since Buffett took control of the company in 1965.
