Intel Corp. boosted computer related shares after saying it will buy back almost $9 billion in stockDividends, who ever of paying dividends, that was something done in the old economy.
Got to get that share price up to make options good.
We need the end to the double taxation of Dividends to get companies to pay them. Also there is nothing "pro-forma" about dividends, they are the real deal. Problem witha stock buy back, you have to sell your shares to realize the gain.
Anybody see what the unemployment ins claims were this week?
