RE:RE:I believe the buyback will start next weekYou are correct. But the shorts might see an opportunity if the quarterly is bad in this down market along with all the predictions of recession. But even if the shorts don't act it will still be a great time to initiate the buyback witth a huge block trade as the interest in the stock is pathetic as illustrated by the lack of volume.That is the way I see it. How Loukas sees it remains to be seen.
