THIS WEEK’S FOCUS
Every parent wants to give their children a better life. But what does that actually mean when it comes to money?
This week's video cuts straight to the answer: the most valuable thing you can pass on to your children is not wealth itself — it's the knowledge, habits, and systems that create it. And three of this week's market stories are themselves a quiet argument for patient, long-term thinking.

5 STORIES THAT MATTER THIS WEEK
Saturday in Omaha marked the end of an era. For the first time in decades, the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting ran without Warren Buffett in the chair. Greg Abel — who became CEO at the start of 2026 — led the proceedings, with Buffett present in a supporting role. The cash pile reached a record $397 billion, buybacks quietly resumed after a long pause, and Buffett told the room that his choice of Abel was "100% successful."
Amazon delivered a standout quarter, driven largely by its cloud division. AWS grew 28% year over year, reaching $37.6 billion in revenue and comfortably beating analyst expectations. Earnings per share came in at $2.78 against a forecast of $1.64 — nearly double what Wall Street had pencilled in. The results confirmed that AI-driven infrastructure spending is showing up in real financial numbers, not just in future promises.
Procter & Gamble did something it has now done for 70 consecutive years: it raised its dividend. The April 2026 increase brings the quarterly payout to $1.0885 per share. P&G has paid an uninterrupted dividend since 1890 — 136 years. For investors focused on compounding income over the long term, the streak is one of the most remarkable records in corporate history.
General Motors posted adjusted first-quarter earnings of $3.70 per share, well ahead of the $2.62 analysts expected, and promptly raised its full-year guidance. A roughly $500 million tariff refund helped drive the beat. That said, the company also booked $1.1 billion in charges related to its retreat from electric vehicles — a useful reminder that a strong headline number can carry real complexity underneath it.
April closed on a high note for the broader market. The S&P 500 finished the month at 7,230.12, setting a new record and marking its best performance since 2020. The advance was broad, supported by a string of earnings that came in above expectations across several sectors. For long-term investors, the month was another data point in a familiar lesson: being patient and staying invested continues to reward those who do.
