zero_value Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Hey Jorma in reply to corporate stock buyback and employee stock incentives. Most employee stock incentives in the past 10 years have been in the form of RSU which are not stock options per se they are a true share count increase and are in effect paid by the corporation buyback count. In some cases one I have intimate knowledge the corporate stock incentives have out paced the 5 year stock buy back. I see this at best market neutral with the employee executive receiving corporate cash either directly from cash on hand or worse debt financed with no net share increase or decrease. There are other forms of stock grants which sort of work the same way without increase share count but in effect transfer stock buyback directly to employee who can sell back into market at certain times.

Jorma Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Who would have ever thought a near 300 point DOW drop would be boring? Nowadays I think the metric for exciting is a 700 point drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jorma Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 I have this eerie feeling that the robots are back in charge. Until the Treasury starts flooding the market with paper again anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
