Here we go again; more stock buybacks today to full the investors to try and get some momentum going.
Can never simply rely on relying on the fruits of the day to day operations to do our talking for us. Always have to manipulate the markets. Pitiful.
Humana probably should buyback as much stock as they can today because I don’t think that tomorrow when CMS Star Ratings are released for their plans, I don’t think it will be as positive as they hoped and their stock will begin to plummet. But just one person’s opinion here. I guess we will see.
@1e0 Okay, NOW the stock market is ioen and their stock has risen. NOW investment.com can honestly report that the stock has risen. But they shouldn’t have said that BEFORE 9:30am EDT.
Wish they would be fines for that.
@1e0 Agree. What a phony bought out racket
Stock market hasn’t even opened yet and investing.com already claiming Humana stock is rising.

@162 Congrats Humana! You managed to buyback enough stock to artificially raise your stock price today by 4.12%!
Let’s see if you can do the same or even more tomorrow! I double dog dare you!!!
@15s Yeah, it will drop by 4pm EDT.
Unless, of course, out of pride and arrogance just to prove the OP wrong, they artificially keep the stock up. But of they do that, they will only be hurting the company, devaluing Humana’s own stock.
In fact, I kind of hope they do. I double dog dare Humana execs to keep the stock over $400 per share today!
Oh no, what will they do now?! If they drop the stock, they prove the OP right! But if they artificially keep the stock up, they prove me right?! Argh! Such a quandary! Lol
Looks like Humana executives are at the stock buyback routine again today!
Watch though as it will creep back down by 4pm EDT.
We couldn’t afford raises, had to use ‘discretion’ to artificially decrease AIP, & our benefits were slashed… yet we can afford stock buybacks to keep Wall Street happy. WHAT A JOKE.
Stock Buybacks ultimately only causes harm in devaluing the company’s stock value.
