RE:RE:I think this buy back is a really smart moveI am a long time shareholder and your point is also valid. I have been here when Tye Burke was the CEO and made all of those bone head aquisisions that resulted in a huge delusion of the shares for very little return. Then we had the Russian fire sale that further deprecated the value of Kinross's share price. The fact that they have made this decision to buy back a boat load of shares for cancellation over the next three years sends a message to the manipulaters, they are willing to take this company private at these low prices. The last shareholders standing will make a lot of money and isn't this what it is all about.
