RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Rating update copied from TDWBDI ;>))Fewer share means that, if income stays the same EPS goes up and therefore SP stands a better chance to improve. Also with fewer shares outstanding it will be easier to increase the divy as the costs will not be so prohibitive. And they have no debt and they need to do something with the cash so buying back shares makes the shares I have more attractive. I'm not realy interested in WEF being bought out its doing just fine as it is.
