Eric, There was an article recently in the economis that rated stock buy backs as good for the stock price as it took some out of circulation, but bad investment practice as Intel makes 75% margin on fab products?
But I am more or less neutral as I want to see the $$ wasted that way.

Eric, Wrong, you pay a large dividend when you can't think what better to do with the stockholders money

I thought buy back has the same effect as dividend but there
is the advantage of tax ?
