RE:RE:No divy increase

RE:RE:No divy increaseWell, buy backs work well enough, if they can make a signifcant dent in shares outstanding...the issue with buybacks in regard to SU, is the fact that they have approx. 1.5 billion shares outstanding...even if they max out the 44 million they are allowed to buy for the year, it doesn't move the needle all that much.

That being said, I totally agree, dividends would probably be the better way to go at this point, in terms of enhancing shareholder value, especially now that alot of investors are questioning the long term viability of the o&g sector as a whole. Dividends are definitely a more concrete form of delivering shareholder returns.

#1 - Buybacks are useless since companies like this like to do many bought fanancing practices throughout their existence.  Or Private Placements.  Basically they keep printing more shares to either acquire more assets or companies.   So the idea of Suncor buying back 1%-2% of total shares outstanding is pathetic at best.  Nevermind the true word.  SCAM

#2 - Management excercising their right to acquire cheap shares throughout the existence of cheap warrants only prints more shares into the market which then later on dump off for extreme profit.  More PUCK*ING bonus money for them at the expense of true shareholders.

Just thinik about this,  how did we ever end up with more than 1.5 BILLION SHARES outstanding?  Total Joke, considering today's ENVIROMENTALIST, SAVE THE WHALES, SAVE THE PLANET movement is scaring everyone away from the CANADIAN ENERGY SECTOR.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,  RAISE THE DIVEND,    WTI over $72 US ,, what more do they want?
When is not enough?  They use to pay good diviidends in the low 50's  

So WHAT THE PUCK IS GOING ON HERE
