Apple's $62.9 billion stock buyback program called a bad investment in new report
jasenj1 said:As an AAPL owner, I can't say that I've seen any benefit from the buy backs. My understanding is that buy backs are supposed to increase the value of the remaining shares. But AAPL continues to be volatile and be manipulated by analyst "news". Maybe my dividend has increased - I haven't watched it closely; I'm sure there's a chart out there somewhere that could show dividend vs shares outstanding or some such, and hopefully the buy backs would show a real impact there. Anyone have a link to a "here's why the buy backs were good for AAPL owners" article?The math is pretty simple. Apple buys 5% to 6% of their outstanding shares every year, which boosts the EPS numbers by roughly the same amount. Combined with their annual profit increase of 6% to 7%, the total earnings growth becomes 12%. At this rate, their EPS will nearly double in the next 5 years. Over long term, stock prices track EPS pretty closely.You might find the following article interesting:

Which one of Apple's 2018 iPad or iPad Pro models should you buy?
PaulSelden said:I love the iPad mini. It fits easily in my pocket, so is good for reading a map when out walking. It is great for reading the newspaper. I just wish Apple would upgrade it to use the stylus.
