    TIL buybacks were illegal until Reagan SEC appointee John S. R. Shad gave companies so-called safe harbor against charges of manipulation if they bought their stock in the open market under certain circumstances. (The provision is known as Rule 10b-18.) https://nyti.ms/1Tie5Hl?smid=nytcore-ios-share …https://twitter.com/RBReich/status/1092617661261836288 …

    Until Reagan, buybacks were illegal. But now they have become the norm, last year exceeding $1 trillion. It is time to rein in this buyback bonanza, and get corporations to invest in workers, not pad their own nests. pic.twitter.com/qYr26WmL8f

        Buybacks were not illegal prior to the SEC rule. 10b-18 creates a safe harbor against liability.https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/rule10b18.asp …

        Guess I may have worded that poorly after former Labor Secretary Reich’s framing.

        #ConfessYourUnpopularOpinion buybacks are fine, the real problem is low taxation of capital gains.

        The #buybacks are not fine when the company is indebted and, in fact, getting in debt to buy the shares back. This is the case for most of these companies so that the executives can dump their stock based compensation. There has to be a rule against it.

        Galaxy brain take: stock buybacks are good, shareholder value maximization as a fiduciary duty is good. Both together are a toxic cancer because they become a Goodhart’s-law hack of the reward function. Why bother thinking too hard about how to build value when you can game it.
