When companies buy back their stocks, it removes shares from the market, increasing the value of the shares that people already hold. It’s particularly beneficial for share sellers, like private-equity and hedge-fund managers, who can sell those shares at a profit.

✏️ Then you see that the buybacks they’ve been doing manipulates the stock price by inflating it.
How convenient.
