There’s More to Warren Buffett’s Game Than Just Picking Great Stocks
We assumed the hypothetical Berkshire hedge fund—let’s call it Berkaway LP—charged a management fee of 2% of assets, plus a performance fee that took 20% of any gains above 6% (or, in one iteration, 8%).
Over a period when the S&P 500 compounded at 10.2% annually and Berkshire at 19.8% annually, Berkaway would have returned somewhere between 13.6% and 15.9% annually.
Inside the Dramatic Dance of Raindrops
The real dance is in the beautiful fluid movement of the droplet shapes. When two drops collide, the water pulses and curls until the shape settles down. But the new combined droplet may also shatter immediately, sometimes stretching out into a sheet before bursting into a shower of tiny droplets. The cycle repeats itself—catch-up and coalesce, catch-up and break—on and on until the drops reach the ground. The harder the rain, the more often droplets bump into each other and the more frantic the dance.

Giant Batteries Are Transforming the Way the U.S. Uses Electricity - The New York Times
California draws more electricity from the sun than any other state. It also has a timing problem: Solar power is plentiful during the day but disappears by evening, just as people get home from work and electricity demand spikes. To fill the gap, power companies typically burn more fossil fuels like natural gas.
That’s now changing. Since 2020, California has installed more giant batteries than anywhere in the world apart from China. They can soak up excess solar power during the day and store it for use when it gets dark.
