RE: Are we getting bad news after hours? The share buy backs are not helping the SP. The SU broker will be trying to suppress the SP so shares can be purchased as cheaply as possible. Until SU management increase the dividend to around 2-3% investors will chase the higher yields even if the price is too high. Retail investors are notorious for chasing stocks & getting bitter when the SP falls. SU is a very good long term investment but I believe the yield has to be increased for income interested investors. JMO
