"EFFECTIVELY, the Intel purchase of shares is a non-taxable capital payment to investors"

So, in addition of Intel stock buyback as being a fraud
to investors (due to inflation of earnings and hiding
labor compensation expenses), it is a tax evasion scheme.
Thanks for pointing this out, Windsock. Very smart of you.

What stupidity.

EFFECTIVELY, the Intel purchase of shares is a non-taxable capital payment to investors.


What color is the sky in your tax jurisdiction?

Intel share repos are potentially, or partially, taxable payments to ex-investors. They were non-taxable non-payments to current investors.

Windsock, Re:"What stupidity"

How's this for stupid behaviour...

"Sometimes, too, companies say they are repurchasing shares to offset the shares issued when stock options granted at much lower prices are exercised. This "buy high, sell low" strategy is one many unfortunate investors have employed -- but never intentionally! Managements, however, seem to follow this perverse activity very cheerfully."
