What everyone else is saying: <\/b>Much of the global press focuses on Berkshire\u2019s financial losses, including theNew York Times<\/a>, the WSJ<\/a> and Forbes<\/a>, while MarketWatch<\/a> described the results as \u201cone of his worst years ever.\u201d Bloomberg<\/a> leads with Buffett\u2019s hopes for an \u201celephant-sized acquisition\u201d in 2019, while The Observer<\/a> think the letter reveals the probable successors to the 88-year-old investor: Berkshire\u2019s head of insurance, Ajit Jain, and Berkshire Energy chairman, Greg Abel.
