Chart Trader Did you really believe that there was ever going to be a buy back, with all the selling going on. The buyback stories are just that to give investors hope. Just like these companies that want to move to the next level. Its all lip service to lock the longs in and to suck in fresh meat. Just like this stock .02 by the EOY. What this CEO will do IMO is do a R/S like a 5/1 and leave the S/A the same at 5 billion and he will keep issuing shares.
