Hold on, Doc- <<they use their earnings to buy more of their own stock, driving the price up for everybody else, but not accomplishing anything else to make the company really worth more>> I guess company stock repurchases tend to increase a stock's price- but it's not a sure thing. It does mean less cash on hand, you know. Moreover, if I own 0.0001% of a company before a stock repurchase, and then after the repurchase I own 0.00011%, I own a larger part of a business that I found desirable in the first place. N'est-ce pas? Laurent
