Corporate buy backs should be made illegal. It allows companies to sure up EPS numbers before an earnings by simply changing the size of the pie. It also implies that a company feels their stock is undervalued, why else would they buy? The problem here is that most companies are not good judges of what is undervalued and what isn't. Also as briefly noted in this article dividends have continued to slide as companies put more of their earnings into buy backs instead of direct profit sharing through cash distribution. Corporate tax cuts have not gone to help pay for Corporate expenses like payroll and benefits for employees. Instead most companies have used those savings for buying back shares to resell at a higher price later down the road. Buy backs are simply another way to divert earnings and keep profits in house. Simply put, the precieved benefit is just that, a smoke show. A perception that the company is doing well and providing benefits for shareholders. When in fact buy backs are a clear cut way to make a sinking ship look far more stable than what it is.

They have corrupted it so far from its original intent that it now needs to be done away with! Stop allowing it to be used to hold prices down. Hide true price discovery because it would hurt shorts sellers! I could go on but it’s late and I’m tired! Hehehe! BTW Brother! FANTASTIC POST
