About this episode
The acquisition of Heinz and Kraft by 3G Capital and Warren Buffett seemed like a classic play from the world’s most famous investor: buy boring staples with long histories and hold them forever. But not this time. Today on the show, Rob Armstrong and Lex editor John Foley talk about Buffett’s exit from a merger on the verge of a spinoff. Also they go long crypto and long tariffs that might actually happen. Sign up for the FT Weekend Festival at ft.com/festival and use the promo code “FTPodcasts” for 10 per cent off.
