@doctorsex @transgrammaractivist @udongle @JuicyGothMommyFeet lots of other companies are doing it that are smaller, and ones that aren't ESG targets. I think the main manipulate reason to do it is that it can be used to boost EPS.

But there are, as far as I know, several reasons to repurchase that aren't directly manipulation, and one good reason is if you feel your stock is under valued.
