The buyback is exclusive of the shares held by KYO. The fact that KYO owns something like 75% of the shares (lower trading float) explains why this co. takes off when the brokerages issue a buy recommendation.

In practice only 10-15% of buy backs ever materialize. A buy back announcement is often made to establish further price erosion. The charts of AVX,VSH and KMET have near identical shapes with KMET being No 1, followed by AVX and VSH.
VSH because of its acquisition may have a sizeable increase in sales in 98. I would appreciate if any one interested would share their evaluations.
Thx.
