Cary, now you are being trite. So prove me wrong. Why is AMAT buying back shares and offering a dividend? They are trying to appease investors who are holding their stock and raise stock values. Why do they feel the need to buy back shares at higher than market prices? Why are investors willing to sell their shares if AMAT is buying? Why has AMAT's share price not risen significantly, even with a recent announced dividend. Pure and simple, at this point in time there are too many shares available and not enough investor demand.
