@daShadoSagestock-buy back are beneficial to 401k contributors, pension funds, and investors all over the world. They are here to stay. They serve as a signalizj g mechanism for the public to buy a business’s stock if they’re doing buybacks as it implies the stock is undervalued

@hungcapitalll Things are so bad, a record number of people are dipping into their 401k for standard costs of living. Go look that up. Saying what you’re saying is the same as saying gig work is great because it gives people some work instead of not working. Buy Now Pay Later is credit because it gives people access to credit vehicles they otherwise wouldn’t (again, too many ppl now using these just to pay for groceries and food delivery). 0 down low-entry mortages are great because it gives people the ability to buy homes they otherwise wouldn’t (hello Great Recession). All of these systems and “products” are vampirec and take advantage of disadvantagous economic system. They’re vampiric.
I guarantee you, a vast majority of people would select to have much higher wages and gainful employment from 1 job than watch corporations use that money to instead buy stocks and get marginal boost in their 401k for retirement. Stock buybacks were illegal throughout the entire time America was great and a home could be bought with a single working class income. Because of stock buybacks, CEO pay has exploded in by hundreds in percentage while real wages have increased by a miniscule amount. No where keeping up with cost of living. Do you have a parent or grandparent old enough to have had a pension? Ask them which they prefer and why, pension or 401k. If not, look into the difference.
Buybacks are used to inflate the value of the stock which makes a majority of executive and board of director pay. There are many ways to signal an undervalued stock. Most ways of measuring accurately has nothing to do with buy back signals.
