Stock Buybacks — at it again, I see

Looks like Humana executives are at it again with their artificially inflating the stock market with their stock buybacks.

I wonder if actual investors are that easily fooled with this utter nonsense. Seems like you would have to be rather naive if you didn’t first research what was presented in yesterday’s Q2 Earnings call in regards to the announced exiting of many Medicare plans, which will effect some 600k members and only 40% of them possibly might get recouped under other larger plans. Doesn’t give me a lot of confidence.

Yeah, sometime when it gets close to the stock market closing, Humana’s stock will creep back down, which is usually a sign that Humana was buying back their own stock throughout the day to try and artificially boost their stock price and in turn hopefully boost investor confidence.

If it doesn’t creep back down, perhaps some prideful executive will have read this post and the decide to stubbornly hold the line and not sell back the stock they are buying back. If they do that, they will only be hurting the investors, not me, as I have no stock in Humana. Don’t want it! Much better stable companies out there to invest in.
