Shareholders walked between booths at the annual Berkshire shareholder shopping day in Omaha, Nebraska, May 3, 2019.

At the annual Berkshire Hathaway meeting, thousands of shareholders walked around the CHI Health Center in Omaha, Nebraska. Shareholders posed for photos with oversized pop-ups of Warren Buffett, giant Heinz ketchup bottles and buying other discounted Berkshire-themed kitsch at the event nicknamed the "Woodstock of Capitalism."

Shareholders later got to hear from the company's two front men, Buffett and Charlie Munger.

Investors were particularly interested at any succession plans for Berkshire. While Buffett hinted at possible successors, the Berkshire CEO largely avoided the issue again.

Buffett also offered his opinion of banks taking government assistance and Tesla CEO Elon Musk's plans to venture into the insurance business. In a subsequent interview with CNBC, Buffett explained why he doesn't buy into intial public offerings and laid out his full endorsement for capitalism, over socialism.
