Given the recent stock market losses in the first half of 2022, companies are under a lot of financial pressure. There are two articles to read for this week’s discussion. Start with the article explaining how stock buybacks work and then read the short WSJ article on buybacks.
Find an example or two (other than those discussed in the WSJ article) about firms making or announcing upcoming stock buybacks. Discuss the suggested (or assumed) reasons for the buybacks. What sort of impact is this expected to make on the firm and its stock price and do you see any changes in the firm’s dividend per share payouts moving forward? You may or may not find detail in the main article you find on the buyback. You might find more from press releases on company websites or in additional searches on the firm’s activities/outlook in 2022.
A major question that should be answered if possible is how the firm is financing these buybacks. Are they taking on more debt (that will change the firm’s debt/equity ratio) or is the firm using excess cash?
If there are also any articles available for 2022 on the firm’s plans for dividends, that would be very interesting to add to your discussions.
Consequences of cash vs. debt are a couple of things to consider, but not NECESSARY to include in your discussion: In the case of taking on more debt, now the firm will need to increase its interest payments. If the firm is using “excess” cash, might there be repercussions later in the year if the economy actually goes into a recession?
If you work for a firm that is buying back stock or if you have personal experience with this, those are great examples. You will still need to find at least one credible outside source to support your comments and viewpoints.

Frequently asked questions
How soon can I get my paper done?
It depends with your deadline. If you need your paper completed in 3 hours, we will deliver it in that time. All you need to do is indicate your deadline in our custom order page here. Alternatively, if you are sending us your instructions via email, please be sure to indicate your deadline.
Will it be completely original? I don't want to be caught in a case of Academic Integrity Violation.
We are as paranoid as you are. Maybe even more! And we understand that the greatest sin you can commit in your academic journey is plagiarizing your academic work. To that end, we have made sure that we check and double-check our papers using high quality plagiarism detection tools such as SafeAssign and Turnitin before submitting the paper to you.
Who is my writer? Is he/she a native English Speaker?
All our writers are native English Speakers. That is not to say that ESL writers are not good, we just prefer hiring native writers because we want the very best people working on your paper. This might mean paying a little bit more for your paper as opposed to when you pay a foreign company whose writers are non-native English Speakers.
What if I need revisions? Will your charge additional for this?
Of course not! If you do happen to require a revision on your paper, our team will handle it for you free of charge. Matter of fact, we won’t rest till you are happy with your paper. So, ask for as many revisions as you need, it’s completely FREE!
Will you give me my money back if I don't like my paper?
We have very few instances where we delivered a paper that a client didn’t fall in love with. But if it so happens that you don’t like your paper for any reason whatsoever, we’ll refund your money back no questions asked.
I have more assignments after this, can you help me with those too?
Of course! And what’s even better is that we can reserve a writer permanently to work on your entire class. This comes in handy for projects which build up on each other and where you need just one writer, one writing style.
I got my order information wrong, can I change that?
Yes you can. Just reach out to our support team via email (support@essaynook.com) or live chat here and they’ll help you change the instructions.
Can I place an order via email instead of going through the order page?
Yes you can. Email Anna at anna@essaynook.com, she’s in charge of our sales team. Alternatively, you can talk to our Live Chat team here and request to speak to Anna.
