"Magnificent 7" Stocks: How Much Will They Spend on Buybacks This Year?
$NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$ said its board approved $25 billion in additional share repurchases "without expiration," and that the company plans to continue repurchases this fiscal year.
Meanwhile, several other megacap tech and growth companies have announced even bigger buybacks this year: $Apple (AAPL.US)$ at $90 billion, $Alphabet-C (GOOG.US)$ at $70 billion and $Meta Platforms (META.US)$ at $40 billion.
In the first half of the year, companies on the $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ repurchased just over $400 billion of stock, according to Citi. They're currently on pace to return just over $800 billion in 2023. That would be down about 11% year-over-year.
For buybacks, "this year's pullback is not a concern," writes Citi strategist Scott Chronert. "We anticipate a positive inflection in free cash flow growth for the S&P 500 headed into 2024."

In One Chart OP 151168433 : Nvidia said its $25 billion in additional share repurchases "without expiration," the goal looks achievable. Nvidia in the July quarter bought back $3.07 billion of stock, just over half of its free cash flow. Analysts now expect $34.4 billion in cash flow next year—so if the company plans to return more than half of that in buybacks, repurchases would total close to $20 billion.
